SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Council will host a workgroup meeting to 
develop an ecosystem model to describe the ecological effects of 
increased Red Snapper recruitment. An ecosystem model has been 
developed for the South Atlantic region and the model is being 
parameterized to describe the potential ecological impact of changing 
Red Snapper recruitment. Modelers will present their ecosystem model to 
the workgroup to gather feedback and describe assumptions. Participants 
include ecosystem modelers, stock assessment scientists, biologists, 
and researchers. The product from the workgroup meeting will be a 
report to the Council.
