Position prediction of herring schools in purse-seine capture situations

Sonar observations of herring schools in the North Sea and along
the Norwegian Coast reveal a rather constant swimming behaviour
of individual schools in purse-seine capture situations. On the
basis of this a method for position prediction of herring schools
is developed. The method may give the opportunity for position
prediction on true-motion sonars in real capture situations.
