    In 2020, the Gulf of Alaska Pacific Cod fishery experienced a significant disaster, caused in part by warmer-than-average ocean conditions and other environmental factors that were beyond the control of fishery managers. These challenging conditions led to a decline in biomass and reduced access to the fishery, creating serious impacts for those who depend on it. In response, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) is directing research funds toward projects that aim to improve the quality of fishery information and help mitigate the long-term effects of the disaster. This effort is being supported through a funding opportunity offered by the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission (PSMFC), in collaboration with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Fisheries).
