      The spatio-temporal variability in the distribution, demographic structure, recruitment, and mortality of sardine within the Iberian Biscay region is described using area-disaggregated data collected during acoustic surveys ...

    • Growth patterns in the North Sea and western mackerel in Norwegian catches 1960- 85 

      Skagen, Dankert W. (ICES CM Documents;1989/H:21, Working paper, 1989)
      Length, weight and age in random samples from Norwegian catches of' mackerel from 1960 to 1985 have been reviewed. A standard growth curve was constructed by applying a modified von Bertalanffy equation to all data. The ...

    • Harvest control rules and changing productivity: the working example of North Sea herring 

      Dickey-Collas, Mark; Skagen, Dankert W.; Simmonds, E. John (ICES CM documents, Working paper, 2006)
      North Sea herring is managed by the EU and Norway through a harvest control rule where target fishing mortalities are changed if the estimated SSB falls below a trigger biomass million tonnes). This management agreement ...

    • Ichthyophonus hoferi disease in the herring in Norwegian waters 

      Hjeltnes, Brit K.; Skagen, Dankert W. (ICES CM Documents;1992/H:27, Working paper, 1992)
      After the discovery of I. hoferi disease in Norwegian spring spawning herring in summer 1991, a program for systematic surveillance of the disease in the herring in Norwegian waters was developed. The programme, which ...
