Execution of joint groundfish appraisal survey in the Adriatic Sea.

Methodology:

Demersal trawl survey in the Eastern Adriatic Sea (Albania, Croatia, Montenegro and Slovenia) complementary to the routine survey carried out in the Western Adriatic part (Italy).

Preliminary Results:

A first AdriaMed demersal trawl survey took place in autumn-winter of 2001 within national and adjacent international water of Albania, Croatia and Slovenia. 39 stratified stations were analysed: Albania 18, Croatia 22 and Slovenia 2.The second AdriaMed demersal trawl survey took place in autumn-winter of 2003 within national and adjacent international waters of Albania, Croatia and Slovenia. In comparison to the AdriaMed 2001-02 trawl survey, the sampling coverage was increased through the direct support of Albania and Croatia. In the case of Albania, number of stations was augmented from 18 to 31, in the case of Croatia from 22 to 42, the number of stations in Slovenian waters remained constant.

The basic results of the survey were given in a final report which details the survey execution logistics, catch records, description of the biomass spatial distribution patterns through the appropriate relative biomass and abundance indices by total and by depth strata, the species composition of the catch including the size structure of the target species as well as other relevant biological features.

The AdriaMed international trawl survey scientific protocol has recently been refined on the basis of the experience accrued.

The third AdriaMed demersal trawl survey was carried out in the autumn/winter 2004, the details were finalised during the recent meeting of the AdriaMed Working Group on Demersal Resources (Zagreb, Croatia, September 2004). Montenegrin territorial and adjacent international waters was included in the trawl survey thus allowing for the first time the joint and complete coverage of the eastern Adriatic Sea from Slovenia to Albania. National scientific staff have been made familiar with survey standard procedure through an ad hoc technical meeting in June 2004. A first software application to hold and manage the resultant dataset “AdriaMed trawl survey regional databank” has been developed and made available to the relevant scientific institutions participating in AdriaMed. The final release of the trawl survey data bank application will include a digital chart (scale 1:250000) of the Adriatic Sea obtained through the cooperation of national hydrographical institutes.
