Best practices for the provision of prior information for Bayesian stock assessment.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2015)
This manual represents a review of the potential sources and methods to be applied
when providing prior information to Bayesian stock assessments and marine risk analysis.
The manual is compiled as a product of the EC ...
Ecological best practice in decommissioning: a review of scientific research.
(2018)
The Oslo and Paris Commissions (OSPAR) decision 98/3 prohibits the dumping of man-made structures (MMS) offshore. However, there are regions of the world where MMS are recognized as providing an ecological and societal ...
Chemical aspects of ocean acidification monitoring in the ICES marine area.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2013)
It is estimated that oceans absorb approximately a quarter of the total anthropogenic
releases of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere each year. This is leading to acidification
of the oceans, which has already been observed ...
Marine and coastal ecosystem-based risk management handbook.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2013)
Management of any environmental issue requires the application of management measures designed to eliminate, control, mitigate, or compensate for pressures related to the drivers of human activities to avoid potential ...
Handbook of fish age estimation protocols and validation methods.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2019)
The Planning Group on Commercial Catch, Discards and Biological Sampling
(PGCCDBS) 2012 was approached by the ICES Publications and Communications
Group (PUBCOM) with the suggestion to combine the existing protocols on ...
IEC/ISO Bow-tie analysis of marine legislation: a case study of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2018)
Marine planning and coastal zone management require an understanding of the policy
context (Cormier et al., 2015) that addresses ecosystem, cultural, social, economic, and
legal aspects (Barnard and Elliott, 2015). ...
Handbook of geo-statistics in R for fisheries and marine ecology.
(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, ...
Acoustic target classification.
(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 ...
Determination of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, polychlorinated dibenzofurans, and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls in biota and sediment.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2012)
Polychlorinated dibenzo‐p‐dioxins, polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are environmental contaminants regulated by the Stockholm Convention of Persistent Organic Pollutants. Being ...
Supporting variables for biological effects measurements in fish and blue mussel.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2017)
Biological effects measurements in fish and blue mussel are fundamental in marine environmental monitoring. Nevertheless, currently used biomarkers may be confounded by basic physiological phenomena, such as growth, ...
