Food for thought in a recent #fisheriesscience publication in the #ICES Journal of #marine #science:
Well-managed #bottomtrawling #fisheries produce #food with lower #environmental #impact than terrestrial #animal #protein (#chicken #pork #beef). If animal protein is to remain part of our #diet, a way to go for #sustainability is not to ban #trawling, but to build #fishery #management #capacity. ๐

Bottom-trawlingโs impact on the climate may be wildly overestimated โ new study ๐

Excited to be in the panel of this year's @EU_Commission's #fisheriesscience seminar on 30-6.
If you are interested in #citizenscience or collaborative research between fishers and scientists and #knowledge #coproduction: there is still time to register for this hybrid event.๐

Does #fish that is returned to #sea after catching stand a chance if survival? This video shows how we carry out survival research of these so-called #discards in #fisheries. ๐
The video only shows the method and doesn't show results. The research shows that survival chances depend on fish species, gear type, water temperature and weather.

"Proper application and interpretation of #fishery dependent data requires the insights and knowledge of members of the #fishing industry."
How to do this is shown in this ๐ latest paper by Anna Mercer et al. (including skippers!) in our Frontiers in Marine Science Research Topic on Integrating #fishers' experiential #knowledge in #marinescience.

The Special Issue on 'Incentivising the avoidance of unwanted catch' of the #ICES Journal of #marinescience is out.
Proud to have contributed with a paper. We looked at he question: does fisher-led development of more selective #fishing gears lead to better uptake? We show that close involvement of #fishers alone is not enough.
Check out the full set of papers here: https://academic.oup.com/icesjms/search-results?f_TocHeadingTitle=Challenges+to+incentivising+avoidance+of+unwanted+catch

Supercool! My colleagues discovered a new #fish species in the Northeast #atlantic during the blue whiting survey off the #coast of #ireland It's called 'the big little fish' (Microichthys grandis).

โClassification of survival probability of fish has so far been done manually by an expert observer on board of the fishing vessel. But this is costly and humans are subjective, so one observer may interpret the markings on the fish differently than their colleague on another vessel. Part of this classification could be done automatically using RGB and spectral cameras and AI.โ ๐

How to ensure the integrity of information submitted to the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) by data providers?
This week I co-chaired WKEnsure, a workshop tasked to develop guidance to address potential conflicts of interest in data & information provision that may affect the integrity of #ICES ICES #marinescience & advice for #fisheries and #marineecosystem #management.

Great platform developed by DTU-AQUA #fisheriesscience aims to provide accurate information on #danmark #bottomtrawling #fisheries, to support science-based #fisheriesmanagement of the Danish waters. It shows the spatial distribution and intensity of all bottom trawl gears used by Danish #fishers and provides quantitative #Fishing pressure indicators as advised by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES).

"Fishing is typically a job you choose based on a mix of passion and tradition."
Colleague Marloes Kraan explains why #fisheries is more than just #fishing and why understanding #social and #cultural aspects are important in #fisheriesscience and #fisheriesmanagement. We are currently conducting a big #socialscience study into huge impacts of policy changes on #fishers and #fishingcommunities in #Netherlands.

A lovely way to end the office day. Beautiful weather and view from the marine institute building in Yerseke.
