Erratum: Chapter 14. Pacific Salmon

We have been advised that the published version of Chapter 14 contains several errors in the text and the data tables. The revised data tables can be found in the following EXCEL spreadsheet. Values that differ from the published version have been highlighted in red. A benefit of the update is that two more years have been added so the data are now complete up to 2003. Finally, as a consequence of the Republic of Korea joining then NPAFC, catches of chum salmon by Korea have been added.
