Depth trajectory and performance of a trawl used for an international bottom trawl survey in the Mediterranean

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2002
An international bottom trawl survey (the MEDITS programme) has been carried out every year in the Mediterranean since 1994. During each survey, about 1000 hauls are done by a fleet of 8 to 11 vessels from 10 to 800 m depth, applying a unique ...

The effect of autotrawl systems on the performance of a survey trawl [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Three aspects of a survey bottom trawl performance—1) trawl geometry (i.e., net spread, door spread, and headrope height); 2) footrope distance off-bottom; and 3) bridle distance off-bottom—were compared among hauls by using either of two autotrawl ...

ICES Survey Protocols – Offshore Beam Trawl Surveys, Coordinated by Working group on Beam Trawl Surveys (WGBEAM)

open access: yes, 2023
The ICES survey protocol for offshore beam trawl surveys describes the current methodologies, stratification and sample processing used in the offshore beam trawl surveys that provide fisheries-independent information to the fish stock assessments for a variety of flatfish species.

Relevance of using the equipment for control of fishing gear to reduce inaccuracy in evaluation of marine organisms abundance

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2016
Geometric parameters of the bottom trawl DT 27.1/24.4 were tested aboard RV TINRO in the Bering Sea using the acoustic equipment «Scanmar» (Norway). Possible errors in the estimates of marine organisms abundance by bottom trawl survey are calculated for ...

TSDV: A GIS tool for inspecting trawl survey data [PDF]

open access: yesICES Journal of Marine Science, 2002
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The TSDV is a tool for preliminary analyses of data produced by the surveys. The results obtained are a solid starting point for a more detailed study focusing on the knowledge of the distribution, the abundance and the population dynamics of demersal species.

Investigating gear and seasonal effects in experimental trawl surveys: The case of Galeus melastomus Rafinesque, 1810 (Chondrichthyes, Scyliorhinidae) in the South of Sicily (Central Mediterranean)

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2017
Mediterranean young-fish oriented experimental bottom trawl surveys represent a precious source of information on both past and current standing stocks and their life history traits and exploitation state.

Some updates to the method for calculation of parameters of bottom trawl system

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2016
The method for calculation of geometric parameters of trawl system proposed by F.I. Baranov is analyzed. The calculation includes evaluation of spacer force and drag for all elements of trawl system and solution of transcendental equation to find a ...

Efficiency of the bottom trawl used for the Mediterranean International Trawl Survey (MEDITS) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The aim of the work presented in this paper was to assess the relative efficiency of the GOC 73 sampling trawl used for the Mediterranean international trawl survey programme (MEDITS) compared with that of a typical Italian commercial trawl. The latter was chosen because it is commonly used by fishermen in the central Adriatic, where the experiment was
