    • Acoustic target classification. 

      Korneliussen, Rolf J. (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2018)
      Data are collected from a variety of acoustic systems in many countries to address a range of ecosystem monitoring and stock management objectives. A key step in the analysis of fisheries acoustics ...
    • Biological effects of contaminants: Quantification of δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALA-D) activity in fish blood. 

      Hylland, Ketil (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2004)
      This document describes a colorimetric method to quantify the enzyme δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALA-D) in fish blood. ALA-D is an enzyme in the heme synthesis pathway. The activity of the enzyme is inhibited by ...
    • Biological effects of contaminants: use of liver pathology of the European flatfish dab (Limanda limanda L.) and flounder (Platichthys flesus L.) for monitoring. 

      Feist, S.W.; Lang, T.; Stentiford, G.D.; Köhler, A. (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2004)
      publication provides quality assurance guidelines for the use of liver pathology of flatfish in biological effects of contaminants monitoring programmes. Information on the sampling procedures, including macroscopic ...
    • Calibration of acoustic instruments. 

      Demer, David A.; Berger, Laurent; Bernasconi, Matteo; Bethke, Eckhard; Boswell, Kevin; Chu, Dezhang; Domokos, Reka; Dunford, Adam; Fassler, Sascha; Gauthier, Stephane; Hufnagle, Lawrence T,; Jech, J. Michael; Bouffant, Naigle; Lebourges-Dhaussy, Anne; Lurton, Xavier; Macaulay, Gavin J.; Perrot, Yannick; Ryan, Tim; Parker-Stetter, Sandra; Stienessen, Sarah; Weber, Thomas; Williamson, Neal (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2015)
      Acoustic sampling has long been a standard survey tool for estimating the abundance and distribution of fish, zooplankton, and their seabed habitat (Kimura, 1929; Sund, 1935; Holliday, 1972a; Nielson et al., 1980). ...
    • Handbook of geo-statistics in R for fisheries and marine ecology. 

      Petitgas, Pierre; Woillez, Mathieu; Rivoirard, Jacques; Renard, Didier; Bez, Nicolas (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2017)
      Fisheries surveys to estimate the abundance of populations have become a pillar in providing fishery-independent data to determine the status of fish stocks and monitor ecosystems. Since the early 1990s, ...
    • Manual of recommended practices for modelling physical – biological interactions during fish early life. 

      North, Elizabeth W.; Gallego, Alejandro; Petitgas, Pierre (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2009)
      The objectives of this manual of recommended practices(MRP) are to summarize appropriate methods for modelling physical–biological interactions during the early life of fish, to recommend modelli ...
    • The MSC experience: developing an operational certification standard and a market incentive to improve fishery sustainability. 

      Agnew, D. J.; Gutierrez, N. L.; Stern-Pirlot, A.; Hoggarth, D. D (2014)
      The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) standard for sustainable fisheries is represented by three high-level principles and a set of 31 indicators and scoring guidelines, known as the “default assessment tree”. Over the 14 ...
    • Pitfalls and guidelines for “recycling” models for ecosystem-based fisheries management: evaluating model suitability for forage fish fisheries. 

      Essington, Timothy E.; Plagányi, Éva E. (2014)
      Ecosystem models have been developed for many marine systems to provide guidance on fisheries management strategies that protect key ecological functions. These models are commonly “recycled”, i.e. applied to new questions ...
    • Recruitment studies: manual on precision and accuracy of tools. 

      Belchier, M.; Clemmesen, C.; Cortes, D.; Doan, T.; Folkvord, A.; Garcia, A.; Geffen, A.; Høie, H.; Johannessen, A.; Moksness, E.; de Pontual, H.; Ramirez, T.; Schnack, D.; Sveinsbo, B. (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2004)
      This manual is one of the results of the project Precision and Accuracy of Tools in Recruitment Studies (PARS), financed by the EU (FAIR-CT96–1371). The project PARS is concerned with improving the methodologies used in ...
    • Review of analytical methods for determining metabolites of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in fish bile. 

      Ariese, F.; Beyer, J.; Jonsson, G.; Porte, C.; Krahn, M.M. (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2005)
      In fish, metabolites of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in gall bladder bile can be used as biomarkers for recent environmental exposure to PACs. These metabolites in the bile result from hepatic biotransformation ...
