Currently we use GOA.GOA_STRATA table to pull the stratum information (e.g., stratum area) for the DBEs. Duane said they (Bering Sea) use information from the RACEBASE.STRATUM table. I looked at both and they have different stratum areas (see below). Do you know why they're different, some sort of a difference in calculation? Also, what is the YEAR column in RACEBASE.STRATUM referring to? Thanks in advance.
