1998 - 1998 Centre for Environment, Fisheries & Aquaculture Science (Cefas) Fisheries spawning and nursery areas 'Fishery Sensitivity Maps in British Waters' GIS Layers for 1998
Coull, K.A., Johnstone, R., and S.I. Rogers. 1998. Fisheries Sensitivity Maps in British Waters.
This data was prepared for the report 'Coull, K.A., Johnstone, R., and S.I. Rogers. 1998. Fisheries Sensitivity Maps in British Waters' which includes maps of the main spawning and nursery grounds for 14 commercially important species (cod, haddock, whiting, saithe, Norway pout, blue whiting, mackerel, herring, sprat, sandeels, plaice, lemon sole, sole and Norway lobster). During the late 1990s, a collaborative project between the national fisheries laboratories (Cefas and the then Fisheries Research Services, Aberdeen), the UK Offshore Operator's Association (UKOOA), the Scottish Fishermen's Association (SFF) and the National Federation of Fishermen's Organisations (NFFO) produced the Fisheries Sensitivity Maps in British Waters. The data describe the sensitivities of the main commercial species under five headings: Individual species spawning areas; Individual species nursery areas; Monthly seismic restriction areas; Fishing effort maps; Relative value maps.

The booklet 'Fishery Sensitivity Maps in British Waters' was produced by the Fisheries Agencies with support from the United Kingdom Offshore Operator's Association (UKOOA), the Scottish Fishermen's Federation (SFF) and the National Federation of Fishermen's Organisations (NFFO). The maps were compiled from data collected and collated by Fisheries Research Services, Scotland (FRS) and Cefas. This work formed part of comprehensive study programmes financed, respectively, by The Scottish Office and by Defra.
