The Influence of an Electric Light on the Capture of Oceanic Cephalopods by a Midwater Trawl

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1998
A total of 57 comparative hauls using a rectangular midwater trawl with a fishing mouth area of 50 m2 (RMT 50) were carried out along the sides of an imaginary triangle south of Madeira in 1986. A total of 1258 cephalopods were caught, giving a mean of 22 per haul with a range from 0 to 67.

Development of a low-energy midwater trawl with different combinations of trawl nets and trawl doors through model experiments

Fisheries Science, 2018
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from fisheries are of primary concern because of their effects on the environment. GHG emissions from fisheries are mainly related to their fuel consumption. Furthermore, the fuel consumption of fisheries also influences their economics. Therefore, many studies have been conducted to find ways of reducing fuel consumption

Application of a fuzzy controller to depth control of a midwater trawl net

Fisheries Science, 2000
SUMMARY: A control system is presented that uses a fuzzy algorithm in controlling the depth of a midwater trawl net, and field experiments carried out on the training ship Kaya of Pukyong National University. The fuzzy controller calculates the length of the warp to be changed, based on the depth error between the desired depth and actual depth of ...

A new midwater trawl for sampling discrete depth horizons

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1969
A new midwater trawl based on that designed by Tucker (1951) is described with details of opening and closing equipment, acoustic release gear and depth telemetering pinger. An account is given of the method used in operating the xtrawl from R.R.S. ‘Discovery’.

Fish behaviour in response to a midwater trawl footrope in temperate reservoirs

Fisheries Research, 2015
Abstract This study addresses fish behaviour at the mouth of a midwater trawl in two temperate reservoirs. Fish distribution and behaviour were monitored using a SIMRAD EK60 (38 kHz) split-beam echosounder with the transducer deployed at the water surface, attached to the surface trawl headrope.

Stepped-Oblique Midwater Trawling as an Assessment Technique for Rainbow Smelt

North American Journal of Fisheries Management, 1991
Abstract Discrete-depth midwater trawling for rainbow smelt Osmerus mordax at night in Lake Champlain revealed a delayed vertical migration of smaller fish and size partitioning vertically within the water column. These behavioral observations led to the development and evaluation of a nighttime stepped-oblique midwater trawling technique.

A method for easing the launch and recovery of mouth-closing midwater trawls

Deep Sea Research, 1977
Abstract A method is described to simplify the handling of mouth-closing midwater trawls during launch and recovery operations at sea. The vertical cables of the net mouth are drawn upward to stack the mouth and frame bars into a smaller package.
