Mortality and stock assessment of the brown shrimp, Penaeus aztecus (Crustacea: Penaeidae), in the northwest Gulf of Mexico

Fishing mortality of the brown shrimp (Penaeus aztecus) was estimated off Tamaulipas (northwest Gulf of Mexico). Monthly age structure and fishing effort data for the 1974-1980 period, and cohort analysis by the virtual population analysis (VPA) technique were used. Catchability estimates indieate h...
