The responsible ... -
Effect of gear design on catch damage on cod (Gadus morhua) in the Barents Sea demersal trawl fishery
Brinkhof, Jesse; Herrmann, Bent; Sistiaga, Manu; Larsen, Roger B.; Jacques, Nadine; Gjøsund, Svein Helge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Damage incurred during the catch process is an indicator of the overall quality of fish and fish welfare. Because catch quality is difficult to improve once it has deteriorated, it is important to preserve quality during ... -
Effect of grid section design on trawl size selectivity
Sistiaga, Manu; Herrmann, Bent; Brinkhof, Jesse; Larsen, Roger B. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Sorting grids are introduced in trawl fisheries to improve size selectivity and reduce the variability of results obtained with sorting devices constructed of netting e.g., codends. Grids are rigid or semi-rigid structures ... -
