| Summary: | No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) cooperates with the local fishing industry in the search for alternative resources, developing experimental fishings. From 1997 to 1999, 8 high seas freezer trawlers explored international waters in the Atlantic for a total of 543 days, subsidised by the E.U. and the Spanish administrations. The quality of the information compiled was guaranteed by having a biologist on board in each vessel, managed by the IEO. This scientist compiled the data and biological material which was later analyzed at the laboratory.This cooperation gave interesting scientific and commercial results, which were subsequently shared between both groups. Progress has been made in knowledge on the biology and distribution of deep-water species as roundnose grenadier (Coryphaenoides rupestris), smoothhead (Alepocephalus bairdii), orange roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus), alfonsino (Beryx splendens), blue ling (Molva dypterygia) ... |
