There are seven herring stocks in the North Atlantic. The project will use genetic studies known as SNP studies to differentiate the stocks, and this will be used in the management of the seven herring stocks, among other things using the advice given by ICES. It is expected that the results of the project will strengthen the sustainable management of herring stocks.
