Results of the 2005 haddock ageing exchange using randomly selected samples from the 2004 DFO spring survey. (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.
