Bottom trawl surveys design, operation and analysis

The Committee for Eastern Central Atlantic Fisheries (CECAF) during its Sixth Session in Agadir, 11–14 December 1979, stressed the necessity of intensifying the work leading to the assessment of the resources of the region by using acoustic and trawling surveys, and to accelerate the training of national expertise. The optimization and standardization of the survey methods and techniques to be utilized by all the laboratories are necessary to assure, on the one hand, t he rational utilization of available funds and, on the other hand, the comparability of the results between one region and another, between one year and another. A seminar was organized for that purpose from 2 to 14 June 1981 at Casablanca (Morocco) by the Interregional Fisheries Development and Management Programme (CECAF component) jointly with the MOR/78/018 project in order to assist in the training of the CECAF scientists in the design and operation of surveys for the assessment of fishery resources in the region.
