SEAwise Report on the pressure induced by fisheries related litter on key species groups.
The SEAwise project works to deliver a fully operational tool that will allow fishers, managers, and policy makers to easily apply Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management (EBFM) in their own fisheries. This report provides analyses of the amount of litter on the seafloor using statistical models of tra...

The SEAwise project works to deliver a fully operational tool that will allow fishers, managers, and policy makers to easily apply Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management (EBFM) in their own fisheries. This report provides analyses of the amount of litter on the seafloor using statistical models of trawl survey data on the number and mass of litter items per km2 in different categories. New statistical methods are implemented to estimate the temporal development, the spatial distribution, the overlap of litter with key fish species and their relationship with the spatial distribution of fishing effort. In addition to the traditional categories of litter, new indicators of the amount of litter types of ingestible sizes and litter posing a risk of entanglement were also developed. The analyses were conducted for the Baltic Sea, the North East Atlantic, Irish Waters, the South Adriatic Sea and the Eastern Ionian Sea.
