Survey : SLAN/1/1950 (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 04/01/1950 and 09/01/1950 on Sir Lancelot

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Otter trawl Codend catch

Survey operations were undertaken on 8 stations

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.

Monitoring Thornback Ray Movements & Assessing Stock Levels 2012/13 - Fisheries Science Partnership

The primary aim of this Fisheries Science Partnership project was to monitor 
spatial movements of thornback ray (*Raja clavata*) from three inshore 
regions along the coast of East Anglia, with the prospect of understanding 
stock structure in ICES Division IVc better. Additional data were collected on 
catch rates, size and sex composition, maturity stage, health condition and 
clasper length (males). Three study sites were chosen and surveyed:


(  1.)Lincolnshire to Northwest Norfolk (Skegness to Wells)
(  2.)Northeast Norfolk (Blakeney to Great Yarmouth)
(  3.)South Suffolk (Felixstowe to Lowestoft).
