  • The CGFS campaign is part of a historical series of fishing surveys that began in 1988 (CGFS Eastern part, conducted on the R/V Gwen Drez) and was extended to cover the entire English Channel regularly from 2018 (on R/V Thalassa). OInly data for the Eastern Channel is presented. For data from the Western Channel please see "WCGFS". For both surveys, the main objective is to collect basic data for estimating the state of resources through direct assessment of stock abundance and distribution, along with biological sampling of the catches. Taking place every year between mid-September and mid-October, it contributes to the European project for the contractualization of basic fishery data collection (DCF). The campaign also allows for sampling and a better understanding of the entire ecosystem, aligning with the implementation of an ecosystem-based approach to fisheries at the community level. The CGFS also provides data for numerous national and international research projects. The collected and validated data are transmitted at the end of each campaign to national databases (SIH, Harmonie, Coriolis) and the European database (DATRAS), enabling their use by different working groups and ensuring public access to this data. Finally, the CGFS data contributes to the baseline assessment of the impact of numerous marine aggregates extraction projects (through a multi-year convention signed between the Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Spatial Planning, IFREMER, and BRGM) planned or underway in the Eastern English Channel. Important Note: This submission has been initially submitted to SEA scieNtific Open data Edition (SEANOE) publication service and received the recorded DOI. The metadata elements have been further processed (refined) in EMODnet Ingestion Service in order to conform with the Data Submission Service specifications.

  • The dataset indicates the location of dredge fishing activity in Irish waters. Attributes when known include year, area, gear type, species, season, days per year (Days_Year), number of vessels (Vessels), vessel size (LOA_Max), gear units, classification, Area of polygon (Area_M2), and data type. This dataset was created in support of the Natura 2000 risk assessment in 2013. Please note that this dataset represents dredging activity for vessels <15 metres length in Irish waters.

  • This dataset shows the distribution of fishing effort by fishing vessels according to the gear type used. Fishing effort is defined as the time spent engaged in fishing operations or time spent at sea, this time may be multiplied by a measure of fishing capacity, e.g. engine power. In this dataset fishing effort is measured as average hours spent actively fishing per kilometre square, per year. Data from years 2014 to 2018 was used to produce this data product for the Marine Institute publication the “Atlas of Commercial Fisheries around Ireland, third edition“ (https://oar.marine.ie/handle/10793/1432).

  • This dataset includes raw monitoring data on the positioning of recreational fishing activities in the Belgian part of the North Sea and the Belgian coast, collected during 34 aerial surveys between 30 November 2016 and 8 November 2017. Data products based on this dataset are already available on https://www.kustportaal.be/en/fisheries-and-aquaculture and on www.recreatievezeevisserij.be (-> http://rshiny.recreatievezeevisserij.be/plaatsbepaling/).
