About AdriaMed

AdriaMed "Scientific Cooperation to Support Responsible Fisheries in the Adriatic Sea" is an FAO Regional Project and it is funded by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Forestry Policies (MiPAAF) and since 2007 by the European Commission. The Project aims in promoting scientific cooperation among the Adriatic countries (Republics of Albania, Croatia, Italy, Montenegro and Slovenia), in line with the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (UN-FAO).

The 13th AdriaMed Coordination Committee

The 13th AdriaMed Coordination Committee meeting was organized and held in Tirana, Albania from 26 – 28 March 2012 and was kindly hosted by the Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Water Administration, Directorate of Fisheries Policies. The meeting was attended by representatives of the Donors, delegations from the countries participating in the Project (Albania, Croatia, Italy, Montenegro and Slovenia), representatives of the Marine and Inland Service of the Fisheries Resources Use and Conservation Division (FAO-FIRF) of FAO, the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM), the FAO Mediterranean Regional Projects.

10-13/01/2012. Split, Croatia
AdriaMed Study Group on Daily Egg Production Method (DEPM) for the appraisal of small pelagic fisheries resources in the Adriatic Sea

The AdriaMed Study Group on Daily Egg Production Method (DEPM) was held from 10-13 January 2012 in Split (Croatia) kindly hosted by the Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries of Split.
The meeting was organised over four days with practical sessions for the sorting of anchovy eggs and determination of embryonic stages of development; examination of maturity stages in adults and of histological preparations. The Study Group also discussed the methodology for the ageing of the postovulatory follicles (POFs) to estimate the spawning fraction in DEPM and the problems related to the estimation of effects of temperature (e.g. temperature dependent model for anchovy egg development). The Participants identified a series of specific activities to be carried out within the framework of the Project in the coming period to progress towards the estimation of anchovy biomass for 2011. The meeting was attended by experts from Albania, Croatia, Montenegro, Italy and Slovenia.

3-6/10/2011 Durrës, Albania
The AdriaMed Working Group on Demersal Fishery Resources in the Adriatic Sea

The AdriaMed Working Group on Demersal Fishery Resources in the Adriatic Sea was held on 3-6 October 2011 in Durrës (Albania) kindly hosted by the Laboratory of Fisheries and Aquaculture of Dürres (Agricultural University of Tirana).
The meeting was organised over four days with a pre-session in order to finalize, review and discuss the work which began during the AdriaMed “Study Group for the application of bottom-trawl survey data to fish stock assessment in the South Adriatic Sea (GSA18)” for presentation in the context of the Working Group meeting.
The Working Group participants presented the results of the surveys carried out in 2010/2011, the WG also focused on the appraisal and stock assessment (standard and alternative methods) of demersal stocks and the results obtained to date. The programmes underway were reviewed and the work carried out by the AdriaMed Study Group on GSA 18 was presented. The WG further discussed the issue of indicators and reference points that could be considered at regional level, also considering EC Marine Strategy Framework Directive. Attention was paid to the activities related to the GFCM-SAC requests. The Participants established the joint, specific activities to be carried out within the framework of the Project in the coming period.
The meeting was attended by experts from all the research institutes that are participating in the Project’s activities on demersal fishery resources.
