This publication offers a comprehensive methodology designed to assist in the planning and execution of regional demersal (bottom and beam) trawl and pelagic acoustic surveys. Its applicability extends to regions where these surveys are not routinely conducted, making it a valuable tool for implementing new surveys at sea. In the Mediterranean and Black Sea, acoustic surveys utilizing mid-water trawling techniques are the primary means of assessing pelagic stocks. These routine surveys provide essential data that is crucial for refining the evaluations of resource status. However, there is a lack of large-scale standardized surveys across different subregions, leading to variations in survey practices.
According to the report, the proposed methodology aims to address this issue by standardizing methods, sampling catches, and recording and analyzing data. This standardization will enhance the comparability of existing surveys, enabling a more comprehensive understanding of regional fish populations. Furthermore, the methodology serves as a valuable tool for establishing minimum requirements for sustainability and management objectives at both regional and subregional levels.
By implementing this methodology, stakeholders can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their survey efforts, ensuring that valuable information is collected to support sustainable fisheries management and conservation.
