End Further Info End Preamble Start Supplemental InformationSUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The purpose of this meeting is for the EOP Committee and AP to provide initial feedback and input on a new research project the Council is collaborating on with a research team from Rutgers University. The project will develop forecast models to predict short-term (1-10 years) distribution changes for four economically important Mid and South Atlantic species. Short-term projections should provide for greater management utility and application since most management considerations and decisions operate at similar timescales. The EOP Committee and AP will provide feedback on the utility of these types of models, data availability, and potential outcomes.
A detailed agenda and background documents will be made available on the Council's website (www.mafmc.org) prior to the meeting.
Special Accommodations
