SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The SSC's Ecosystem Subcommittee will review 
analyses conducted by the NMFS California Current Integrated Ecosystem 
Assessment team. Specifically, the SSC Ecosystem Subcommittee will 
review the following four items: (1) Threshold Relationships Between 
Environmental Drivers and Performance of Salmon Preseason Abundance 
Forecasts, (2) Krill-based Indicators, (3) Year Class Strength and 
Distribution of Small Groundfish, and (4) Port-level Linkages Between 
Fisheries using Network Analysis. The SSC's Ecosystem Subcommittee will 
consider recommending summaries of these ecosystem indicators be 
included in future state of the California Current Ecosystem reports to 
the Pacific Council.
    No management actions will be decided by the SSC's Ecosystem 
Subcommittee. The SSC Ecosystem Subcommittee members' role will be 
development of recommendations and a report for consideration by the 
SSC and Pacific Council at their March 2022 meeting in San Jose, CA.
