| Summary: | This workshop, chaired by Jon-Helge Vølstad (Norway) and Mike Armstrong (UK) was held in Bilbao, Spain, from 8–10 November 2011. Twenty-eight participants representing eleven countries including Iceland and the United States were present. Alan Lowther (USA), an external contributor, provided particular expertise in sampling small-scale fisheries. Prior to the workshop, participants from each country were provided with a questionnaire to collect standard descriptions of their on-shore and at-sea sampling pro-grammes. These were collated at the workshop. The objectives, descriptions and the practical issues relating to setting up national programmes were looked at in more detail in presentations of eight case studies covering at-sea sampling (Denmark and Sweden), sampling using a reference fleet (Norway), port sampling (UK England & Scotland; Iceland) and sampling of small-scale, artisanal fisheries (Malta, Basque Countries). WKPICS recommends the use of probability-based sampling schemes with sampling ... |
