This Persistence index of juveniles of Merluccius merluccius in the Portuguese continental coast was calculated following Colloca et al. (2015) for project Minouw. Using data from PT-IBTS (2002-2011), geostatistical methods were performed for each year. Density hot spots were outlined on the annual maps using Hot Spot Analysis (Getis-Ord Gi*) and persistente zone of undersized indivuduals was calculated for the overlapped years.
