Mr. Chair, it's important because, in fact, the decline of the shrimp started in the mid 2000s before we started to see the strong cohort for redfish. It actually limits the suitable habitat for shrimp across the gulf. Because of the warming of the temperature, the acidification of the water and the deoxygenation, they're all factors that have greatly reduced the area of the gulf that is suitable for shrimp. We have documented that through the years, and that's one of the major factors for the decline, along with other factors such as predation from redfish and other predators.
