Symbol Footnotes
* "Wanted" and "unwanted" catch are used to describe fish that would be landed and discarded in the absence of the EU landing obligation, based on average discard rate estimates for 2016–2018. Both wanted and unwanted catch refer to Subarea 4 and Subdivision 20, calculated as the projected total stock wanted catch (including Division 7.d) deducted by the catch of plaice from Subarea 4 taken in Division 7.d in 2020. The subtracted value (836 t of wanted catch and 779 t of unwanted catch) is estimated based on the plaice catch advice for Division 7.d for 2020.
** SSB 2021 relative to SSB 2020.
*** Total catch in 2020 relative to the combined TAC of Subarea 4 and Subdivision 20 in 2019 (142 217 t).
^ Total catch in 2020 relative to advice value 2019 (142 217 t).
^^ Fwanted and Funwanted do not sum up to the Ftotal as they are calculated using different ages.
