Survey : CLIO/6/1968 (part of CEFAS Historic surveys)

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the CEFAS Historic surveys;

Station and biological data collected during research surveys carried out by 
Cefas (formerly Directorate of Fisheries) in seas around the UK, mostly in the 
North Sea, since 1902. The survey hauls are not laid out systematically as a 
grid, as in current International Bottom Trawl Surveys (IBTS) and are widely 
distributed over (especially) southern and central North Sea areas. Gears and 
protocols were not standardised throughout, due to the long term nature of the 
series. Surveys took place in each season. Data are lacking for the periods of 
both World Wars. In some periods (e.g. the early 1900s), all species caught 
were recorded, whereas in other periods (e.g. 1920s-30s), only the key 
commercial species (e.g., Plaice, Sole and Cod) were recorded systematically. 
Note that some surveys targeted particular species (notably Plaice).

Survey took place between 30/04/1968 and 10/05/1968 on Clione

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Historic Granton otter trawl

Survey operations were undertaken on 43 stations

29 different species were caught on this survey

Nematode assemblages from lab-based disturbance experiments using samples from the Exe and Lynher estuaries, February to May 1996

Data consists of presense data of nematode worms, from both sand and mud 
habiatats, in the form of count data. Bulk sediment samples were collected 
from both the Exe estuary and the Lynher estuary between February and May 
1996. This data is the result of labatory experiments on physical disurbance 
and details the counts of different nematode species of samples following 
disturbance and various lengths of recovery time. The Read Me file contains 
further information on the experiments conducted on each microcosm.

Survey : CEND 4/09 (part of Data Collection Regulation Survey, Qtr 1 (FSS: DCRDC))

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Data Collection Regulation 
Survey, Qtr 1 (FSS: DCRDC);

Six surveys of a series to collect biological data on fish stocks in support 
of the EU Data Collection Regulation (DCR). Fishing was undertaken using a 
Portuguese High Headline Trawl (PHHT) and 4m Beam Trawl, using a subset of the 
station grid previously fished on Cefas Celtic Sea Groundfish Surveys. The 
station grid was not a fixed target and was deviated from as dictated by 
weather, catch rates and/or sampling needs.

*Gadus morhua* (Atlantic Cod) stocks in the Barents Sea are currently at 
levels not seen since the 1950s. Causes for the population increase last 
century, and understanding of whether such large numbers will be maintained in 
the future, are unclear. To explore this, we digitised and interrogated 
historical cod catch and diet datasets from the Barents Sea. Data includes 
temporal and spatial information, cod catch data and length distributions, and 
hydrographic data.

North East nephrops gear selectivity 2004/05 - Fisheries Science Partnership

An investigation into the potential for improving the selectivity for 
whitefish in the North Sea Nephrops fishery using a cut-away headline trawl.

The main objectives were to obtain selectivity parameters of the cut-away 
headline trawl and a typical *Nephrops* trawl in current use in the Farn 
Deeps *Nephrops* fishery, for the main commercial by-catch species.

During October 2004, the commercial twin-rig trawler FV Success III carried 
out trials to determine the selectivity characteristics of the cut-away 
headline trawl and a standard *Nephrops *trawl currently in use in the 
fishery. Success III was typical of this class of twin-rig vessel in the North 
Sea *Nephrops *fishery. The vessel was chartered during the period 11 
October – 24 October 2004.

The single rig vessels FV Endeavour and FV Trudie May were chartered for five 
days between 10 February and 18 February 2005 to carry out parallel tows with 
the two nets towed as single rigs.
