Survey : CIRO/08/1979 (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 21/08/1979 and 15/09/1979 on Cirolana

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Bottle Casts Niskin bottles Plus deepwater CTD
-   Historic Granton otter trawl

Survey : KINGSTON/10/1937 (part of Historic Arctic Survey Series)

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Historic Arctic Survey

*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.

Strategy for Industry Generated Data - 2016/17 - Fisheries Science Patnership

A desk-based study was undertaken to address the increasing need for a 
strategic approach to industry-led data collection in the face of reducing 
resources and growing need for evidence in fisheries management. The aim was 
to establish partnerships and action plans that will support the inclusion of 
fishing industry knowledge and data in the evidence-base for managing UK 
fisheries.

Three main activities were used to progress the study:


-   • A review of existing initiatives that have incorporated industry 
    generated data into fisheries management advice and their degree of 
    success.
-   • A rapid appraisal of data deficient UK targeted stocks, assessment of 
    data needs/gaps that may be augmented by industry generated data, and 
    selection of case study stocks.
-   • Development of action plans on how data gaps for case study stocks of 
    commercial importance to UK fleets could be filled by the industry.

Survey : AMAR 1/86 (part of Solent Bass Pre-recruit Survey (FSS: SOLENT))

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Solent Bass Pre-recruit 
Survey (FSS: SOLENT);

There are over 50 surveys in this series which began in 1983. The aim of these 
are to provide abundance indices of 2-4 year old bass. The catch density of 
other species taken is also recorded. The survey was undertaken twice yearly 
during May and September for most years up to 2009. Since then one September 
survey each year has taken place.

Survey : INA K 1/02 (part of Blackwater Herring Survey (FSS: INA K HER))

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Blackwater Herring Survey 
(FSS: INA K HER);

A series of cruises carried out from 1989 to 2009 each November on the INA-K 
in the Thames Estuary. The aims of which were to assess the state of herring
(*Clupea harengus*) stocks through measurements of length samples and by 
ageing a stratified selection of fish. The latter was also to determine the 
stock split between North Sea and Thames fish as there is a great deal of 
mixing of stocks in the area. Stock identification was done by a combination 
of first year growth observed in the otolith and the maturity stage of the 
fish.
