Expected outcomes
Friday, 18 February 2011 15:55

The research plan is based around a two-year time line. The expected outcome at the end of two years is a model (SEAPODYM) based evaluation of the expected impact of ocean acidification upon the distribution and abundance of yellowfin tuna in the Pacific Ocean. The results from this modeling will be written up and reported to the Scientific Committees (or equivalent) of the WCPFC, IATTC and WPFMC. This information will enhance the capacity of these RFMOs to make more informed decisions regarding the management of the tuna resources, particularly with regard to attaining key sustainability related objectives.
