# 3 Northeast Atlantic Commission area

## 3.1 NASCO has requested ICES to describe the key events of the 2018 fisheries

In 2018, ICES advised that there were no mixed-stock fisheries options on the NEAC stock complexes at the Faroes for the fishing seasons 2018/2019 to 2020/2021 (ICES, 2018). NASCO subsequently agreed a multiannual (three year) decision for the Faroes fishery stipulating not to set a quota for these seasons. The measure for 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 was predicated on the application of a Framework of Indicators (FWI) to provide an annual check that there had been no substantive change in the forecasts of abundance. When the FWI was applied in January 2019, there was no indication that the forecast estimates of abundance for the three stock complexes in the FWI had been underestimated. There was, therefore, no need for a full reassessment by ICES in 2019.

### 3.1.1 Fishing at Faroes

No fishery for salmon has been prosecuted since 2000.

### 3.1.2 Key events in NEAC homewater fisheries

Several countries in the NEAC area reported unusually warm and dry conditions in 2018 and these will have affected salmon runs and catches; further details are provided in Section 2.3.2.

Total landings from marine fisheries in Norway were higher than landings from river fisheries for the first time since 2004. This is not due to changes in management, but most likely due to the dry conditions causing salmon to stay in the sea and delay their river return combined with less favourable fishing conditions in rivers.

### 3.1.3 Gear and effort

No significant changes in gear type used were reported in 2018; however, changes in effort were recorded. The number of gear units licensed or authorised in several of the NEAC area countries provides a partial measure of effort (Table 3.1.3.1), but does not take into account other restrictions, for example, closed seasons. In addition, there is no indication from these data of the actual number of licences actively utilized or the time each licensee fished.

The numbers of gear units used to take salmon with nets and traps have declined markedly over the available time-series in all NEAC countries. This reflects the closure of many fisheries and increasingly restrictive measures to reduce levels of exploitation in many countries. There are fewer measures of effort in respect of in-river rod fisheries, and these indicate differing patterns over the time-series. However, anglers in all countries are making increasing use of catch and release (see below).

Trends in effort are shown in Figures 3.1.3.1 and 3.1.3.2 for the Northern and Southern NEAC countries respectively. In the Northern NEAC area, driftnet effort in Norway accounted for the majority of the effort expended in the early part of the time-series. However, this fishery closed in 1989, reducing the overall effort substantially. The number of bag nets and bend nets in Norway has decreased for the past 15-20 years and in 2018, was the second lowest in the time-series
for bend nets. There was a slight increase in the number of bag nets from the previous year. The number of gear units in the coastal fishery in the Archangelsk region, Russia, has been relatively stable and increased again in 2018 after having ended with the lowest figure in the time-series in 2017. The number of units in the in-river fishery at the Archangelsk region decreased markedly between 1996 and 2002 but has since remained relatively stable.

The numbers of gear units licensed in UK (England & Wales) and Ireland (Table 3.1.3.1) were among the lowest reported in the time-series. In UK (Scotland) the number of fixed engine and net and coble was the lowest in the time-series. For UK (Northern Ireland) driftnet, draftnet, bag nets and boxes decreased throughout the time-series and no commercial fishing activity has occurred in coastal Northern Irish waters since 2012. Licence numbers remained stable for over a decade, before decreasing from 2002 due to fishery closures. In France, the number of nets in estuaries has been reduced while the in-river effort has remained relatively stable after a marked reduction in 1993. The 2018 figure shows a slight decrease from the previous year.

Rod effort trends, where available, have varied for different areas across the time-series (Table 3.1.3.1). In the Northern NEAC area, the number of anglers and fishing days in Finland showed a marked decrease in 2017 following a new fishery agreement between Finland and Norway with the number of fishing days decreasing in the River Teno/Tana from 31 923 in 2016 to close to 10 000 in the last two years. In the Southern NEAC area, rod licence numbers increased from 2001 to 2011 in UK (England & Wales), subsequently declined between 2012 and 2016, but showed a marked increase in numbers in 2017 due to the introduction of a new free licence for young fishermen (18 years or younger). There was a drop in the annual licence sales in 2018; although similar a number of these free junior licences were issued, as in 2017. In Ireland, there was an increase in the early 1990s owing to the introduction of one-day licences. In France, the effort was fairly stable throughout the time period but in 2017 and 2018 there was a slight increase in the number of licences issued.

### 3.1.4 Catches

NEAC area catches are presented in Table 3.1.4.1. The provisional nominal catch in the NEAC area in 2018 (960 t) was 60 t below the updated catch for 2017 (1020 t) and 7% and 20% below the previous five-year and ten-year means respectively. Compared to the 1960–1980 time period mean, the 2018 nominal catch showed an 85% decrease. It should be noted that changes in nominal catch may reflect changes in exploitation rates and the extent of catch and release in rivers, in addition to stock size, and thus cannot be regarded as a direct indicator of abundance. The provisional total nominal catch in Northern NEAC in 2018 (824 t) was slightly lower than the updated catch for 2017 (870 t) and the previous five-year mean (815 t), but 5% below the previous ten-year mean. Catches in 2018 were close to long-term means in most Northern NEAC countries although the catch in Finland has decreased from 51 t in 2016, 32 t in 2017, to 24 t in 2018. In the Southern NEAC area the provisional total nominal catch for 2018 (136 t) is the lowest in the time-series, 14 t below the updated catch for 2017 (150 t) and was 42% and 52% below the previous five-year and ten-year means respectively. Catches in 2018 were close to or below long-term means in all Southern NEAC countries. The greatest reductions in catches in Southern NEAC were observed in UK (Scotland) where the catch in 2018 (19 t) was 8 t below the catch in 2017 (27 t) and below the previous five- and ten-year means (65 and 107 t, respectively). Figure 3.1.4.1 shows the trends in nominal catches of salmon in the Southern and Northern NEAC areas from 1971 until 2018. The catch in the Southern NEAC area has declined over the period from about 4500 t in 1972 to 1975 to below 1000 t since 2003. The catch fell sharply in 1976, and between 1989 and 1991, and continues to show a steady decline over the last 15 years from over 1000 t to currently below 150 t. The catch in the Northern NEAC area declined over the time-series, although this decrease was less distinct than the reductions noted in the Southern NEAC area. The catch
in the Northern NEAC area varied between 2000 t and 2800 t from 1971 to 1988, fell to a low of 962 t in 1997, and then increased to over 1600 t in 2001. Catch in the Northern NEAC area has exhibited a downward trend since and has been consistently below 1000 t since 2012. Thus, the catch in the Southern NEAC area, which comprised around 2/3 of the total NEAC catch in the early 1970s, has been lower than that in the Northern NEAC area since 1999, and has been around 1/5 of the total catch in the NEAC area in recent years.

### 3.1.5 Catch per unit of effort (CPUE)

CPUE can be influenced by various factors, such as fishing conditions, perceived likelihood of success and experience. Both CPUE of net and rod fisheries might be affected by measures taken to reduce fishing effort, for example, changes in regulations affecting gear. If changes in one or more factors occur, a pattern in CPUE may not be immediately evident, particularly over larger areas. It is, however, expected that for a relatively stable effort, CPUE can reflect changes in the status of stocks and stock size. CPUE may be affected by increasing rates of catch and release in rod fisheries.

The CPUE data are presented in Tables 3.1.5.1 to 3.1.5.6. The CPUE for rod fisheries have been derived by relating the catch to rod days or angler season. CPUE for net fisheries were calculated as catch per licence-day, gear-day, licence-tide, trap-month or crew-month.

In the Southern NEAC area, CPUE has decreased in the net fisheries in the SW and NW regions of the UK (England & Wales) and a long-term increase was noticed in the NE region (Figure 3.1.5.1). The CPUE for the net and coble fisheries in UK (Scotland) show a general decline over the time-series with a slight increase in some of the most recent years (Table 3.1.5.5). The CPUE for the fixed engine fisheries has shown a slight increase since 2010, but in 2016–2018 there was no information on effort due to changes in fishery regulations (Table 3.1.5.5). The CPUE values for rod fisheries in UK (England & Wales) show a general positive trend (Figure 3.1.5.1).

In the Northern NEAC area the CPUE for the commercial coastal net fisheries in the Archangelsk area, Russia, showed a general decrease, but an increase again since 2016. The CPUE for the Archangelsk in-river fishery has shown a general increase (Figure 3.1.5.1 and Table 3.1.5.2). Other Russian river fisheries showed 2018 CPUE figures that were mostly above the means of the previous five years (Table 3.1.5.2) and the overall trend shows a small increase across the time-series (Figure 3.1.5.1). In Finland, the CPUE per angler-season in the rivers Teno and Näätämöjoki has been relatively stable over time (Figure 3.1.3.1). After the major change in fishery regulation on the Teno, the 2017 figures were clearly higher than in the previous year and the five-year means, but decreased again in 2018 (Table 3.1.5.1). For the River Näätämöjoki, CPUE figures for 2018 were at or lower than the long-term and five-year means. A general positive trend was observed for the CPUE in the Norwegian net fisheries (Figure 3.1.5.1). Similarly, the CPUE values in 2018 were higher than the long-term means both for bag nets and bend nets (Table 3.1.5.6).

### 3.1.6 Age composition of catches

The percentage of 1SW salmon in NEAC catches is presented by country in Table 3.1.6.1 and shown separately for Northern and Southern NEAC countries in Figure 3.1.6.1. Except for Iceland, the proportion of 1SW salmon has declined for all countries over the period 1987–2018. The decline in the proportion of 1SW salmon is evident in both stock complexes.

The overall percentage of 1SW fish in Northern NEAC catches remained reasonably consistent averaging 66% in the period 1987–2000 (range 61% to 72%), but has fallen in more recent years
(2001–2018) to 57% (range 48% to 69%), when greater variability among countries and years has also been evident. Comparing the two periods, the proportion of 1SW has decreased in Russia, Norway, Finland, and Sweden significantly so for the three latter, while a significant increase has been apparent for Iceland. On average, 1SW fish comprise a higher percentage of the catch in Iceland than in the other Northern NEAC countries in the period 2001–2018 (Table 3.1.6.1).

In the Southern NEAC area, the percentage of 1SW fish in catches averaged 60% (range 49% to 64%) in 1987–2000 and 55% (range 45% to 63%) in 2001–2018. Comparing the two periods, the percentage of 1SW salmon has decreased in all Southern NEAC countries presented (Table 3.1.6.1), significantly so for Spain (data from the Asturias region).

### 3.1.7 Farmed and ranched salmon in catches

The contribution of farmed and ranched salmon to national catches in the NEAC area in 2018 was again generally low in most countries, with the exception of Norway, Iceland and Sweden, and is similar to the values reported in previous years. Farmed and ranched fish are included in assessments of the status of national stocks (Section 3.3) for Norway.

The estimated proportion of farmed salmon in Norwegian angling catches in 2018 was at the lower end of the range (3%) in the time-series, whereas the proportion in samples taken from Norwegian rivers in autumn was together with last year the lowest in the time-series (4%). No current data are available for the proportion of farmed salmon in coastal fisheries in Norway. A small number of escaped farmed salmon (11) was also reported from catches in Icelandic rivers in 2018, and nine of them were genetically traced back to the cages they had escaped from. Small proportions (<0.5%) of farmed salmon were also reported in catches from Ireland and UK (Scotland).

The number of farmed salmon that escaped from Norwegian farms in 2018 is reported to be approximately 160 000 fish (provisional figure), substantially up from the previous year (15 000). An assessment of the likely effect of these fish on the estimates of PFA has been reported previously (ICES, 2001).

The release of smolts for commercial ranching purposes ceased in Iceland in 1998, but ranching for rod fisheries in two Icelandic rivers continued in 2018. Icelandic catches have traditionally been split into two separate categories, wild and ranched (Table 2.1.1.1). In 2018, 32.8 t were reported as ranched salmon in contrast to 65.6 t harvested as wild. Similarly, Swedish catches have been split into two separate categories, wild and ranched (Table 2.1.1.1). In 2018, 4.1 t were reported as ranched salmon in contrast to 12.4 t harvested as wild. Ranching occurs on a much smaller scale in Ireland.

### 3.1.8 National origin of catches

#### 3.1.8.1 Catches of Russian salmon in northern Norway

A mixed-stock Atlantic salmon fishery operates off the coast of northern Norway, in the three northernmost counties: Nordland, Troms and Finnmark. Annual landings in these counties in the last ten years varied between 114 and 165 t with most catches taken in Finnmark (Statistics Norway). Different salmon stocks from Norwegian, Finnish and Russian rivers migrate along the coastal areas at the time when the fishery operates.

Previously the Working Group has reported on investigations of the coastal fisheries in northern Norway where genetic methods have been applied to analyse the stock composition of this mixed-stock fishery (ICES, 2015b) based on results from the Kolarctic Salmon project (Kolarctic
ENPI CBC programme 2007–2013). Overall, the incidence of Russian salmon in the coastal catches varied strongly within season and among fishing regions, averaging 17% for 2011–2012 in the coastal catches in Finnmark County, while nearly 50% of all salmon captured in Värangerfjord, close to the border, were of Russian origin. Catches in May and June were composed of salmon from wider geographical areas, whereas catches in July and August contained more salmon from local populations (Niemelä *et al.*, 2014). However, it should be noted that these estimated proportions of Russian salmon in the catches are based on the extended season permitted for the research fishery in the Kolarctic Salmon project. Proportions of Russian salmon are likely to be different in the regular fishing season, especially since the proportion of Russian salmon was highest in the early period of the research fishery, when there is no regular fishery.

In autumn 2015, the Russian Federation and Norway signed the Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Climate and Environment (Norway) and the Federal Agency for Fishery (the Russian Federation) on cooperation in management of and monitoring and research on wild Atlantic salmon in Finnmark County (Norway) and the Murmansk region (the Russian Federation). The Working Group on Atlantic salmon in Finnmark County and the Murmansk Region was established under the MoU consisting of managers and scientists from each country as appointed by Parties.

The first report of the Group "Status and Management of Salmon Stocks in Finnmark County and the Murmansk Region" was prepared in 2018 and sent to the Ministry of Climate and Environment (Norway) and the Federal Agency for Fishery (the Russian Federation), however the report has not been published yet. There was no meeting of the Group in 2018 as it was postponed to March 2019.

### 3.1.9 Exploitation indices of NEAC stocks

Exploitation rates have been plotted for 1SW and MSW salmon from the Northern NEAC (1983 to 2018) and Southern NEAC (1971 to 2018) areas and are displayed in Figure 3.1.9.1. National exploitation rates are an output of the NEAC PFA Run Reconstruction Model. These were combined as appropriate by weighting each individual country's exploitation rate to the reconstructed returns. Data gathered prior to the 1980's represent estimates of national exploitation rates while post-1980s exploitation rates have often been subject to more robust analysis informed by projects such as the national coded wire programme in Ireland.

The exploitation of 1SW salmon in both Northern NEAC and Southern NEAC areas has shown a general decline over the time-series (Figure 3.1.9.1), with a notable sharp decline in 2007 as a result of the closure of the Irish driftnet fisheries in the Southern NEAC area. The weighted exploitation rate on 1SW salmon in the Northern NEAC area was 39% in 2018, which was slightly lower than the previous five-year (42%) and ten-year (42%) means. Exploitation on 1SW fish in the Southern NEAC complex was 12% in 2018, which is at the same level as the previous five-year (11%) and the ten-year (12%) means.

The exploitation rate of MSW fish also exhibited an overall decline over the time-series in both Northern NEAC and Southern NEAC areas (Figure 3.1.9.1), with a notable sharp decline in 2008. Exploitation on MSW salmon in the Northern NEAC area was 42% in 2018, which was slightly lower than the previous five-year mean (44%) but showed a decline from the ten-year mean (45%). Exploitation on MSW fish in Southern NEAC was 12% in 2018, which was at the same level as the previous five-year (11%) and ten-year (12%) means.

The rate of change of exploitation of 1SW and MSW salmon in NEAC countries over the available time periods is shown in Figure 3.1.9.2. This was derived from the slope of the linear regression between time and natural logarithm transformed exploitation rate. The relative rate of change of
exploitation over the entire time-series indicates an overall reduction of exploitation in most Northern NEAC countries for 1SW and MSW salmon (Figure 3.1.9.2). Exploitation in Finland has been relatively stable over the time period, while the largest rate of reduction has been for 1SW salmon in Russia. The Southern NEAC countries have also shown a general decrease in exploitation rate (Figure 3.1.9.2) on both 1SW and MSW components. The greatest rate of decrease shown for both 1SW and MSW fish was in UK (Scotland), while France (MSW) and Iceland (both 1SW and MSW) showed relative stability in exploitation rates during the time-series. Exploitation for 1SW salmon in France shows an increase over the time-series.

## 3.2 Management objectives and reference points

### 3.2.1 NEAC conservation limits

River-specific Conservation Limits (CLs) have been derived for salmon stocks in most countries in the NEAC area (France, Ireland, UK (England & Wales), UK (Northern Ireland), Finland, Norway and Sweden) and these are used in national assessments. In these cases, CL estimates for individual rivers are summed to provide estimates at a country level for these countries.

River-specific CLs have also been derived for salmon stocks in UK (Scotland) and for a small number of rivers in Russia, but these are not yet used in national assessments. An interim approach has been developed for countries that do not use river-specific CLs in the national assessment. This approach is based on the establishment of pseudo-stock-recruitment relationships for national salmon stocks; further details are provided in the Stock Annex (Annex 6).

CL estimates for all individual countries are summed to provide estimates for the northern and southern NEAC stock complexes (Table 3.2.1.1). These data are also used to estimate the Spawner Escapement Reserves (SERs; the CL increased to take account of natural mortality between the recruitment date of 1st January in the first sea winter and return to home waters). SERs are estimated for maturing and non-maturing 1SW salmon from the individual countries as well as Northern NEAC and Southern NEAC stock complexes (Table 3.2.1.1). The Working Group considers that the current national CL and SER levels may be less appropriate to evaluating the historical status of stocks (e.g. pre-1985), that in many cases have been estimated with less precision.

### 3.2.2 Progress with setting river-specific conservation limits

#### 3.2.2.1 UK (Scotland)

In UK (Scotland), 218 rivers have been identified which support salmon fisheries. In 2018, assessment was undertaken at the scale of the river, or on groups of smaller neighbouring rivers where rod fishery data were not yet available by river. In addition, stocks associated with Special Areas of Conservation (SACs), designated under the EU Habitats Directive due to their importance for Atlantic salmon, were assessed separately. In 2018, a total of 173 assessable areas were identified and informed the basis of management measures implemented in 2019.

In previous years, the number of salmon eggs required was estimated to fall between 1.1 and 9.8 eggs/m² of wetted area of salmon habitat, derived from internationally monitored rivers at the same latitude (Crozier et al., 2003). This was used in the absence of Scotland-specific information and Marine Scotland Science has been working to produce Scotland-specific egg requirements. In 2018, Bayesian hierarchical modelling methods (Prévost et al., 2003; White et al., 2016)
were employed to fit conservation limits for 11 Scottish rivers with spawning stock and recruitment abundance data and transport them to all assessable areas without such data, using a Ricker stock-recruitment model and taking into account the wetted area available to salmon, productivity and geographic location. This has led to a general reduction in the median egg requirement for assessable areas lacking stock and recruitment data. Methodological development is ongoing to investigate whether alternative stock-recruitment relationships and additional river covariates can improve the model.

In addition, the methods used to estimate the numbers of adults from rod catches have also been re-examined. The new model found that rod exploitation rate was related to month and flow conditions but the geographic component that had been included in previous years' models was removed. Using this method annual exploitation rates derived for UK (Scotland) are slightly larger than those from Ireland, similar to those from UK (England & Wales) and generally lower than those used in Norway.

## 3.3 Status of stocks

### 3.3.1 The NEAC PFA run-reconstruction model

The Working Group uses a run-reconstruction model to estimate the PFA of salmon from countries in the NEAC area (Potter *et al.*, 2004). PFA in the NEAC area is defined as the number of 1SW recruits on 1 January in the first sea winter. The model is generally based on the annual retained catch in numbers of 1SW and MSW salmon in each country, which are raised to take account of minimum and maximum estimates of non-reported catches and exploitation rates of these two sea-age groups. These values are then raised to take account of the natural mortality between 1 January in the first sea winter and the mid-date of return of the stocks to freshwater.

Where the standard input data are themselves derived from other data sources, the raw data may be included in the model to permit the uncertainty in these analyses to be incorporated into the modelling approach. Some countries have developed alternative approaches to estimate the total returning stock, and the Working Group reports these changes and the associated data inputs in the year in which they are first implemented.

For some countries, the data are provided in two or more regional blocks. In these instances, model output is provided for the regions and is combined to provide stock estimates for the country as a whole. The input data for Finland comprise the total Finnish and Norwegian catches (net and rod) for the River Teno, and the Norwegian catches from this river are not included in the input data for Norway.

A Monte Carlo simulation (9999 resamples) is used to estimate confidence intervals on the stock estimates. Further details of the model are provided in the Stock Annex, including a step-by-step walkthrough of the modelling process.

### 3.3.2 Changes to the national input data for the NEAC PFA run-reconstruction model

Model inputs are described in detail in Section 2.2 of the Stock Annex, and input data for the current year are provided in Appendix 3 of the Stock Annex. No changes were made to the national/regional input data for the model beyond adding new data for 2018 and updating values for 2017 when necessary.
### 3.3.3 Changes to the NEAC PFA run-reconstruction model

The exploitation rate for Northern and Southern NEAC has so far been estimated as the difference between the number of returns and spawners divided by the number of returns. This calculation provided inaccurate exploitation rates for Northern NEAC because some spawners in Russia are returns from the previous year, so called 'delayed spawners'. This has been changed so that the exploitation rate is estimated as the retained catch divided by the returns, where the catch does not include the catch of delayed spawners.

### 3.3.4 Description of national stocks and NEAC stock complexes as derived from the NEAC run-reconstruction model

The NEAC PFA run-reconstruction model provides an overview of the status of national salmon stocks in the Northeast Atlantic. It does not capture variations in the status of stocks in individual rivers or small groups of rivers, although this has been addressed, in part, by the regional splits within some countries and the analysis set out in Section 3.3.5.

The model output for each country has been displayed as a summary sheet (Figures 3.3.4.1(a–j)) comprising the following:

* PFA and SER of maturing 1SW and non-maturing 1SW salmon.

* Homewater returns and spawners (90% confidence intervals) and CLs for 1SW and MSW salmon.

* Exploitation rates of 1SW and MSW salmon in homewaters estimated from the returns and catches.

* Total catch (including unreported) of 1SW and MSW salmon.

* National pseudo stock-recruitment relationship (PFA against lagged egg deposition) is used to estimate CLs in countries that do not provide one based upon river-specific estimates (Section 3.2). This panel also includes the sum of the river-specific CLs where this is used in the assessment.

Tables 3.3.4.1–3.3.4.6 summarise salmon abundance estimates for individual countries and stock complexes in the NEAC area. The PFA of maturing and non-maturing 1SW salmon and the numbers of 1SW and MSW spawners for the Northern NEAC and Southern NEAC stock complexes are shown in Figure 3.3.4.2.

The model provides an index of the current and historical status of stocks based on fisheries data. The 5th and 95th percentiles shown by the whiskers in each of the plots (Figures 3.3.4.1 and 3.3.4.2) reflect the uncertainty in the input data. It should also be noted that the results for the full time-series can change when the assessment is re-run from year to year and as the input data are refined. In this regard, changes to the data inputs for UK (Scotland) resulted in alterations to the PFA and spawner time-series and changes in CL and SER values for the Southern NEAC stock complex.

Status of stocks is assessed relative to the probability of exceeding CLs, or for PFA, SERs. Based on the NEAC run-reconstruction model, the status of the two age groups of the Northern NEAC stock complex, prior to the commencement of distant-water fisheries in the latest available PFA year, were considered to be at full reproductive capacity (Section 1.5; Figure 3.3.4.2). In the Southern NEAC complex, 1SW and MSW stocks were considered to be suffering reduced reproductive capacity prior to the commencement of distant-water fisheries in the latest available PFA year (Figure 3.3.4.2).
The abundances of both maturing 1SW and non-maturing 1SW recruits (PFA) for northern NEAC (Figure 3.3.4.2) show a general decline over the time period, with the decline more marked in the maturing 1SW stock. Both Northern NEAC stocks have however, been at full reproductive capacity prior to the commencement of distant-water fisheries throughout the time-series.

1SW spawners in the Northern NEAC stock complex have been at full reproductive capacity throughout the time-series. MSW spawners, on the other hand, while generally being at full reproductive capacity, have periodically been at risk of suffering reduced reproductive capacity (Figure 3.3.4.2).

The abundance of maturing 1SW recruits (PFA) for Southern NEAC (Figure 3.3.4.2) demonstrates a declining trend over the time period. Both maturing and non-maturing 1SW stock complexes were at full reproductive capacity prior to the commencement of distant-water fisheries in the early part of the time-series. Since the early 1990s, however, the non-maturing 1SW stock has been at risk of suffering reduced reproductive capacity in the majority of the assessment years (Figure 3.3.4.2). The maturing 1SW stock, on the other hand, was first assessed as being at risk of suffering reduced reproductive capacity in 2009. For most years thereafter, the stock has either been at risk of suffering reduced reproductive capacity or suffering reduced reproductive capacity (Figure 3.3.4.2).

Both the 1SW and MSW spawning stocks in the Southern NEAC stock complex have been at risk of suffering reduced reproductive capacity or suffering reduced reproductive capacity for the majority of the time-series and are suffering reduced reproductive capacity in the latest assessment (Figure 3.3.4.2).

## Individual country stocks

The assessment of PFA against SER (Figure 3.3.4.3) and returns and spawners against CL are shown for individual countries (Figures 3.3.4.4 and 3.3.4.5) and by regions (Figures 3.3.4.6 and 3.3.4.7) for the most recent PFA and return years. These assessments show the same broad contrasts between Northern (including Iceland) and Southern NEAC stocks as was apparent in the stock complex data.

For all countries in Northern NEAC, the PFAs of both maturing and non-maturing 1SW stocks were at full reproductive capacity prior to the commencement of distant-water fisheries in the most recent PFA year, except for non-maturing 1SW stocks in the River Teno/Tana (Finland & Norway) which were at risk of suffering reduced reproductive capacity (Figure 3.3.4.3). Spawn-ing stocks in Sweden and Norway were at full reproductive capacity in the most recent assess-ment. However, both maturing and non-maturing spawners in the River Teno/Tana (Finland & Norway) and Russia were at risk of suffering or suffering reduced reproductive capacity (Figures 3.3.4.4 and 3.3.4.5). In addition, maturing spawners in Iceland were at risk of suffering reduced reproductive capacity.

In Southern NEAC, all maturing 1SW stocks with the exception of UK (Northern Ireland) were suffering reduced reproductive capacity both prior to the commencement of distant-water fisheries and at spawning (Figures 3.3.4.3 and 3.3.4.4). In UK (Northern Ireland), the PFA and spawn-ers of maturing 1SW stocks were at full reproductive capacity (Figures 3.3.4.3 and 3.3.4.4). For Southern NEAC non-maturing 1SW stocks, UK (Northern Ireland) and UK (England & Wales) were at full reproductive capacity before the commencement of distant-water fisheries (Figures 3.3.4.3 and 3.3.4.4) and at risk of suffering, or suffering reduced reproductive capacity in other countries. Southern NEAC MSW spawning stocks were at full reproductive capacity in UK (Northern Ireland) and UK (England & Wales) while elsewhere they were at risk of suffering, or suffering, reduced reproductive capacity (Figure 3.3.4.5).
Figures 3.3.4.6 and 3.3.4.7 provide more detailed descriptions of the status of returning and spawning stocks by country and region (where assessed) for both Northern and Southern NEAC stocks, again for the most recent return year.

### 3.3.5 Compliance with river-specific conservation limits

In the NEAC area, nine jurisdictions currently assess salmon stocks using river-specific CLs (Tables 3.3.5.1 and 3.3.5.2 and Figure 3.3.5.1). The attainment of CLs is assessed based on spawners, after fisheries.

* For the River Teno/Tana (Finland/Norway), the number of individual stocks with established CLs rose from nine between 2007 and 2012 (with five annually assessed against CL), to 24 (5 including the main stem) since 2013 (with seven to 15 assessed against CL). No stocks met CL prior to 2013. Since then, CL attainment has fluctuated within a range of 20% to 40% of individual stocks assessed. In 2018, including the main stem, six out of 15 (40%) assessable stocks attained CL.

* CLs were established for 439 Norwegian salmon rivers in 2009, but CL attainment was retrospectively assessed for 165-170 river stocks back to 2005. An average of 178 stocks have been assessed since 2009. An overall increasing trend in CL attainment was evident from 39% in 2009 to 89% in 2017 (data are pending for 2018).

* Since 1999, CLs have been established for 85 river stocks in Russia (Murmansk region) with eight of these annually assessed for CL attainment, 88% of which have consistently met their CL during the time-series.

* Sweden established CLs in 2016 for 23 stocks which rose to 24 stocks in 2017. Eight of the 20 stocks assessed (40%) met CL in 2016, six of the 22 stocks (27%) assessed met CL in 2017 and seven out of 23 (30%) met CL in 2018.

* In France, CLs were established for 28 river stocks in 2011, rising to 35 by 2016. The percentage of stocks meeting CL peaked in 2013 (74%) and declined to a consistent 60% since 2016. The 1SW stock component had a high CL attainment of 80% in 2018.

* Ireland established CLs for all 141 stocks in 2007, rising to 143 since 2013 to include catchments above hydroelectric dams. The mean percentage of stocks meeting CLs is 37% over the time-series, with the highest attainment of 41% achieved in 2011 and 2012. This has been followed by a progressive decline thereafter to 29% in 2018.

* UK (England & Wales) established CLs in 1993 for 61 rivers, increasing to 64 from 1995 with an overall mean of 46% meeting CL. In 2018, only 22% of assessed stocks met CL which is the joint lowest year in the time-series along with 2014.

* Data on UK (Northern Ireland) river-specific CLs are presented from 2002, when CLs were assigned to ten river stocks. Since 2012, 19 stocks have established CLs with up to 17 of these assessed annually for CL attainment. A mean of 41% have met their CLs over the presented time-series. A downward trend is evident since 2016 (76%), with 44% of assessed stocks attaining CL in 2018.

* UK (Scotland) has established CLs for 173 assessment groups (rivers and small groups of rivers) with retrospective assessment conducted to 2011. For domestic management, stock status is expressed as the probability of achieving CL and attainment is set at 60%. Mean attainment over the time-series was 55%. In 2017, the most recent reporting year available, 49% of assessment groups met CL.

* Iceland has set provisional CLs for all salmon producing rivers and continues to work towards finalising an assessment process for determining CL attainment.

* No river-specific CLs have been established for Denmark, Germany, Portugal, and Spain.
### 3.3.6 Marine survival (return rates) for NEAC stocks

An overview of the trends of marine survival for wild and hatchery-reared smolts returning to homewaters (i.e. before homewater exploitation) is presented in Figures 3.3.6.1 and 3.3.6.2. The figures provide the percent change in return rates between five-year means for the smolt years 2008 to 2012 and 2013 to 2017 for 1SW salmon, and 2007 to 2011 and 2012 to 2016 for 2SW salmon. Note, however, that Northern NEAC is now only represented by one river: River Imsa (1SW and 2SW) in Norway. Tagging of smolts with pit-tags started in three rivers in Norway in 2016 and more rivers are likely to be added in future. Furthermore, the problem with salmon return counting at the weir in River Vesturdalsa in Iceland has been solved, so data will be available from 2018 again. As of 2018, the River Halselva has been removed from these data, because it is not considered a representative river; the time-series ended in 2011, and it is suspected that the stock is maintained by fish straying from the nearby River Alta. It should also be pointed out that percent-change of survival rates for hatchery smolts from Southern NEAC are only available for Irish and Icelandic rivers, due to a gap in the time-series (2007–2010) of rivers in UK (Northern Ireland). The annual return rates for different rivers and experimental facilities are presented in Tables 3.3.6.1 and 3.3.6.2.

The overall trend for hatchery smolts in Southern NEAC areas is generally indicative of a decline in marine survival except for River Burrishoole (Ireland). Northern NEAC hatchery smolts, represented only by River Imsa in Norway, shows a decline in return rates of MSW, but an increase for 1SW smolts (Figure 3.3.6.2). For the wild smolts in the Southern NEAC areas eight out of 15 dataseries show a decrease. For the River Imsa data show an increase in 1SW but a decrease in 2SW return rates in the most recent five-year period compared to the previous five years (Figure 3.3.6.1). The percentage change between the mean of the five-year periods varied from a 68% decline (River Dee 1SW) to a 48% increase (River Scorff) (Figure 3.3.6.1). However, the scale of change in some rivers is influenced by low return numbers creating high uncertainty, which may have a large consequence on the percentage change.

Least squared (or marginal mean) mean annual return rates were calculated to provide indices of survival for northern and southern 1SW and 2SW returning adult wild and hatchery salmon in the NEAC area (Figure 3.3.6.3). Values were calculated to balance for variation in the annual number of contributing experimental groups through application of a GLM (generalised linear model) with survival related to smolt year and river, each as factors, with a quasi-Poisson distribution (log-link function). Each of the hatchery and wild, 1SW and 2SW, northern and southern area river survival indices were run independently, as presented in Tables 3.3.6.1 and 3.3.6.2. Only return rates given in separate 1SW and 2SW age classes were used. Note, again, that the River Halselva has been removed in 2018, and the River Halselva had generally low sea survival. Note also that estimated year effects are presented on a log-scaled *y*-axis, and that the *y*-axes differ between panels. In summary:

* 1SW return rates of wild smolts to the Northern NEAC area (three river indices) although varying annually, have generally decreased since 1980. The time-series can be seen as three periods, 1981 to 1993, 1994 to 2005 and 2006 to 2017. In the first period, survival was generally high (mean 8.6%), before declining in 1994 to a period of low, but gradually improving survival (mean of 3.9%), followed by a further decline from 2004 to 2006. Survival in the third period (2006 to 2017) has been at the lowest level (mean of 2.1%). The return rate for the last point in the time-series (for the 2017 smolt cohort) of 3.0% is down on the 2016 return rate of 3.4%. Additionally, there is a variable return rate for the 2SW wild component (comprising three river indices), with the most recent return rate (for 2016 smolt cohort) of 1.7%, representing a slight increase on the figure from the previous year.
* Return rates of 1SW wild smolts to the Southern NEAC area (eight river indices) have generally decreased since 1980. A steep decrease between 1988 and 1989 was followed by a decline from around 13.8% to around 5.0% over the period 1993 to 2010. An increase in 2009 was followed by two years of declining survival. This subsequently improved slightly for the 2012 smolt cohort to 6.0%, declined for the 2013 cohort to 2.9% (the lowest in the time-series), and increased to 5.7% for the 2015 cohort with the latest figure being slightly lower or 4.6% (2017 cohort). There is a weak negative trend for the 2SW wild component (five river indices), and pre-1999 rates were generally higher (mean 2.2%) than post-2000 rates (mean 1.3%). Following the recovering return rate in 2015, from 1.0% in 2014 to 1.4%, the return rate of the most recent cohort (2016) was back down to the 2014 level, or 1.0%.

* 1SW return rates of hatchery smolts to the Northern NEAC area (four river indices) alt-hough varying annually, have decreased slightly since 1980. This seems to be driven by a decreased return rate since 2000 (2000-2017 mean 1.8%) compared to the preceding period (1981-1999 mean 3.5%). The negative trend is not evident for the 2SW hatchery component (four river indices). The increase observed from the 2007 to the 2009 smolt cohorts has not been maintained. The most recent return rate in 2016 (0.3%) is lower com-pared to the preceding year (0.9%).

* 1SW return rates of hatchery smolts to the Southern NEAC area (13 river indices) alt-hough varying annually, have decreased strongly since 1980. The returns since the 2003 cohort have been low with the highest return rate being 2.5% for the 2007 cohort, which is the same as the lowest return for the period from 1980 to 2003 (1995 cohort). The return of 1.0% for the 2017 cohort were down on the previous year, and was the second lowest in the series, after 2009. The ten most recent years include the nine lowest return rates in the time-series, and again indicate a persistent period of poor marine survival. There is only one 2SW hatchery component for the southern NEAC area (River Ranga, Iceland), but since 2002 there have been no 2SW adults returns from hatchery smolts.

The low return rates in recent years highlighted in these analyses are broadly consistent with the trends in estimated returns and spawners as derived from the PFA model (Section 3.3.4), and that abundance is strongly influenced by factors in the marine environment.

The method to estimate smolt and spawner runs in French index rivers was revised in 2016. A novel harmonised hierarchical Bayesian framework was built to analyse index rivers data and to provide Bayesian estimates that integrate all available data (Servanty and Prévost, 2016). The new models provide revised time-series of abundance of parr, smolts and spawners in the four French index Rivers, Bresle (Normandy), Oir (Normandy), Scorff (Brittany), and Nivelle (Basque country). Parr are not monitored in the Bresle. Smolts are not monitored in the Nivelle. Return rates are estimated from smolt-to-adult returns, except for the Nivelle where return rates are from parr to adult. Time-series of high return rates in the River Oir (Normandy, France) must be considered with caution. Indeed, a large number of spawners originating in other rivers of the Bay of Mont Saint Michel probably stray into the River Oir and artificially increase the ratio of spawners/smolts used to calculate the return rates. All estimates are based on wild fish only except for the River Nivelle where juvenile stocking occurred from 1986 to 1995, which contrib-uted to adult returns from 1988 to 2000.
