This model integrates all available egg-presence data from 1998 to 2019, offering a more comprehensive understanding of sardine distribution than a previous iteration (https://academic.oup.com/icesjms/article/68/5/867/652826). This model is used to attribute acoustic-trawl survey observations and fishery landings to the northern subpopulation of Pacific Sardine to inform the stock assessments (https://repository.library.noaa.gov/view/noaa/61071).
