NOAA Technical Memorandum NMFS
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), organized in 1970, has evolved into an
agency which establishes national policies-and manages and conserves our oceanic, coastal;and atmo-
spheric resources. An organizational element within NOAA, the Office of Fisheries is responsible for
fisheries policy and the direction of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS).
In addition to its formal publications, the NMFS uses the NOAA Technical Memorandum series to issue
informal scientific and technical publications when complete formal review and editorial processing are
not appropriate or feasible. Documents within this series, however, reflect sound professional work and
may be referenced in the formal scientific and technical literature.
