where are cod found
Atlantic cod are found in the North Atlantic Ocean. In the eastern Atlantic, they occur from the Barents Sea in northern Europe to the Bay of Biscay off France, and around Iceland. In the western Atlantic, they are distributed from Greenland to Cape Hatteras in North Carolina.
U.S. Pacific cod are found in the North Pacific Ocean, from the Yellow Sea in East Asia to the Bering Strait, around the Aleutian Islands, and south to California. However, they are rare in the southern end of their range. U.S. Pacific cod are caught commercially by the United States, Russia, Japan and China.
