Report of the Working Group on the Science Requirements to Support Conservation, Restoration and Management (WGRECORDS)

WGRECORDS was established to provide a forum for the co-ordination of work on diadromous species following the disbanding of the Diadromous Fish Committee. The role of the Group is to co-ordinate work on diadromous species, organise Expert Groups, Theme Sessions and Symposia, and help to deliver the ICES Science Plan. WGRECORDS held an informal meeting during the NASCO Annual Meeting in Drogheda, Ireland, 5 June 2013. The annual meeting of WGRECORDS was held on 26 September 2013, during the ICES Annual Science Conference in Reykjavik, Iceland. The meetings were chaired by Niall Ó Maoiléidigh (Ireland) and Atso Romakkaniemi (Finland).
