Figure 7.3.4 Fishing mortality of herring, cod, haddock and saithe in the North Sea, expressed as deviation from Flim (Flim represents a critical threshold of fishing mortality, above which recruitment overfishing and stock collapse is possible). This is calculated as Flim subtracted from estimated fishing mortality in the stock, meaning that positive values indicate fishing mortality above Flim. Source (Miljøstatus, 2022a).
