Results of the 2007 cod DFO/NEFSC aging exchange
using randomly selected samples from the first quarter of the 2005 NEFSC commercial samples.
(A) Age-bias plot, showing the average age attained by the DFO age reader
versus the ages attained by the NEFSC age reader. Error bars indicate
95% confidence intervals. (B) Age-frequency table, showing each reader's ages.
Numbers in the shaded boxes indicate agreement between the two ages. Numbers
above this diagonal indicate fish which were given higher ages by the DFO age reader; those below the shaded boxes were given higher ages by the NEFSC
age reader. Total age frequencies are given by age for both readers. (C) Results summary, indicating results for the NEFSC reader relative to each age for the
DFO reader.
