NOAA Library Seminars

Speaker: Christine Stawitz, Office of Science and Technology, National Marine Fisheries Service, Assessment Branch Director

Abstract: The National Stock Assessment Program (NSAP) supports, advocates for, and improves stock assessment science and operations in NOAA Fisheries. We foster connections within the stock assessment community, help integrate innovations into operational use, develop and support tools that bolster fisheries management, and serve as a conduit between regional programs and agency priorities. We track stock assessment performance, support making stock assessments more holistic, provide training and opportunities for the current and next generation of stock assessment scientists, and build software tools. Open communication is key to ensuring this work meets its intended aim to serve the stock assessment community. However, our community is broad, regionally diverse, and busy, making implementation challenging. In this seminar I’ll share several projects that NSAP staff are coordinating, the rationale for our focus on these projects, and how partners can contribute and provide feedback.
