North East Coast Net Grid Trials 2013/14 - Fisheries Science Partnership

The twin rig trawler Aquarius II was chartered for ten days in September and October 2013 to undertake fishing trials in the Nephrops (*Nephrops norvegicus*) fishery off the North east coast of...

Gear selectivity in the Irish Sea 2004/05 - Fisheries Science Partnership

To examine the effect on catches of using 80mm and 110mm cod-ends in the eastern and western Irish Sea plaice fishery using twin-rig otter trawls. To investigate the bycatch of cod in the eastern...

Whitefish bycatch in sandeel fishing areas 2003/04 - Fisheries Science Partnership

Survey to measure the whitefish bycatch taken by a 16mm commercial sandeel net, fished at a time when juvenile gadoids could be settling around the Dogger Bank.

Skate and ray discard survey 2007/08 - Fisheries Science Partnership survey

To ascertain the likely survival rate of skates and rays discarded as a consequence of the proposed introduction of a maximum landing length, and also to develop on-board species identification...

Eastern Irish Sea Razor Clam Survey 2009/10 - Fisheries Science Partnership

The fishing vessel Lord Sam ll was chartered to carry out a survey of razor clam populations on the Cumbrian coast. The aim of the survey was to establish whether a commercially viable stock of...
