In situ determination of bottom trawl ground gear contact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Exact definition of towed distance with proper ground gear contact is an essential parameter in bottom trawl swept area estimates of fish abundance. Errors in this key parameter may lead to a first order bias in abundance estimates of demersal fish.

Quantifying the Physical Impact of Bottom Trawling Based on High-Resolution Bathymetric Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Bottom trawling is one of the most significant anthropogenic pressures on physical seafloor integrity. The objective classification of physical impact is important to monitor ongoing fishing activities and to assess the regeneration of seafloor integrity

Impact of the water structure in Peter the Great Bay (Japan Sea) on seasonal migrations of sandfish Arctoscopus japonicus

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2023
On the background of water structure, general patterns of the sandfish Arctoscopus japonicus distribution in Peter the Great Bay are determined on the data of bottom trawl surveys in spring, summer and fall seasons. When the larval stage is finished, the

A Win-Win for Deep-Sea Corals and Fishing: Increasing Seafloor Protections While Restoring Fishing Opportunities Off the United States West Coast

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
On January 1, 2020, the United States (U.S.) government implemented new regulations increasing total closed areas to bottom trawl fishing by 363,513 km2, including a net increase of 44,498 km2 in essential fish habitat conservation areas at fishable ...

Turning the tide on bottom trawling [PDF]

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2015
Trawling is universally recognized as one of the most destructive fishing methods, causing irreversible damage through scraping large tracts of bottom habitats. These habitats then suffer from declines in ecosystem functions and services, and collapses in populations of trawled species. The plethora of studies on the unsustainable impacts of commercial

Population structure, reproduction and exploitation of the greater forkbeard Phycis blennoides (Brünnich, 1768) from the Algerian basin★

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2020
The objective of this study was to determine the population distribution and some biological aspects for fish stock assessment of the greater forkbeard Phycis blennoides along the Algerian basin. The distribution of P.

Impact of bottom trawling on sediment biogeochemistry: a modelling approach [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2020
Abstract. Bottom trawling in shelf seas can occur more than 10 times per year for a given location. This affects the benthic metabolism, through a mortality of the macrofauna, resuspension of organic matter from the sediment, and alterations of the physical sediment structure.

Effects of bottom trawling on fish foraging and feeding [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015
The effects of bottom trawling on benthic invertebrates include reductions of biomass, diversity and body size. These changes may negatively affect prey availability for demersal fishes, potentially leading to reduced food intake, body condition and yield of fishes in chronically trawled areas.

Fish and invertebrate catch per unit of effort and biomass of three bottom trawl hauls in 2022, southern North Sea

open access: yes, 2023
During a MARSYS student training cruise (HE600) three bottom trawl hauls were conducted on 2022 June 3., 7. and 10. in the southern North Sea. The catch per unit of effort and biomass data originate from bottom trawl hauls (RV Heincke Schollensack, AWI),
