Application of EDA (v 2.0) to Ireland: prediction of silver eel Anguilla anguilla escapement
Eel Density Analysis (EDA) is a modelling framework that can be used to estimate eel populations in aquatic habitats. Survey data (primarily electrofishing operations) are used to build predictive models describing the presence/absence and the density of eel. These models are then applied to the ent...
