Material collected in summer 2004 from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between Iceland and the Azores with three pelagic trawls was used to estimate relative catchabilities of common fish, cephalopod, decapod, and jellyfish species. ...

Fish form schools, layer or patches in which the individual fish's behaviour is not independent of its neighbours movements. On the other hand, at low densities fish may have the freedom to act as single individuals ...

Prosjektet som beskrives i rapporten har til hensikt å belyse i hvilken utstrekning etterlatte plattformer i Nordsjøen samler fisk, og om de kan utnyttes til lønnsomt fiske. Hoveddelen ble utført ved Albuskjell 2/4 Fox ...

During the course of the April, 1996, meeting of the Fishing Technology and Fish Behavior Working Group it became clear to many that the methodology for experimentally estimating the catchability of survey trawls might ...

The average catch per tow by a research vessel survey is often used as an index of abundance. An estimate of the variance of such indices that is based only on the between station variability in catch may underestimate ...

At a selected location in the Barents Sea acoustic observations, bottom- and pelagic trawl catch data were collected over a 10 day period. A large proportion of the fish were in the acoustic dead zone during the sampling ...
