sample for genetic analysis using a new method for assessment called Close-Kin Mark-Recapture (CKMR). CKMR uses the DNA profiles of individual fish to identify other closely related family members within the population. Starting in 2020, NOAA Fisheries implemented the use of CKMR on Western Atlantic bluefin tuna based on the success of implementation by CSIRO on Southern bluefin tuna. Utilizing the Pelagic Fisheries Lab\u2019s existing sampling network this methodology has been applied to bluefin in i the northwest Atlantic. <strong><mark class=\"kt-highlight\">The groundbreaking results from this research and other scientific advancements have led to an unexpected increase in Western quota.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column1358_96f69a-c3 >
