Symbol Footnotes
# The catch for C- and D-fleets are set to zero because of the zero catch advice given for 2020 for the western Baltic spring-spawning herring stock.
## Following the MSY advice rule FMSY × SSB2020/MSY Btrigger (ICES, 2016), assuming same catches as in 2019 for the C- and D-fleet and a 48% C-fleet TAC transfer to the A-fleet.
### Following the MSY advice rule FMSY × SSB2020/MSY Btrigger (ICES, 2016), assuming same catches as in 2019 for the C- and D-fleet and no C-fleet TAC transfer to the A-fleet.
* For autumn-spawning stocks, the SSB is determined at spawning time and is influenced by fisheries between 1 January and spawning.
** Assuming same catch scenario in 2020 as in 2019.
*** SSB (2020) relative to SSB (2019).
**** A-fleet catches (2020) relative to TAC 2019 for the A-fleet (385 008 tonnes).
^ Advice value 2020 relative to advice value 2019, using catches for all fleets.
^^ Following the MSY advice rule FMSY × SSB2020/MSY Btrigger (ICES, 2016).
^^^ Status quo fishing mortality for the B-fleet for all catch options.
