| The recapture of this specimen suggests that wreckfish take up a demersal life at a total length of about 50 cm. |
|
| Thus, pelagic and early demersal growth appear to represent distinct stanzas in the growth history of these gadoids. |
|
| Guillemots often forage solitarily, or in small groups, and they primarily select nearshore demersal fishes for their chicks. |
|
| The bulletin said the contraction during the fourth quarter was reflected in the species such as demersal hake, horse mackerel and rock lobster. |
|
| These fish have demersal eggs, but do not bury the eggs and do not attach them to specific substrates. |
|
| Most demersal stocks show clear signs of overfishing and the current situation is not sustainable. |
|
| Both demersal and pelagic fish can sometimes be found far from coastal regions. |
|
| In the winter they will fish for the demersal species and due to their small salmon quota it is no longer a major fishing option in the summer months. |
|
| They do not paint a very optimistic picture for anchovy, cuttlefish, demersal fish, black hake and sardinella. |
|
| A small beginning has been made to developing the theory of metapopulations of demersal fishes, frequently in the context of reef fish management. |
|
| Redfish, argentine, dogfish, cusk, and several species of hake are among the many other demersal fishes of the Gully. |
|
| Utilisation of fishing opportunities for category 2 demersal species was also substantial. |
|
| Apart from cephalopods, the fleet also catches demersal species with the same gear. |
|
| Geographic population structure and species differences in mitochondrial DNA of mouthbrooding marine catfishes and demersal spawning toadfishes. |
|
| The net primarily targets flatfishes but also catches small demersal fishes, such as gadids and some elasmobranchs. |
|
| A narrow but productive continental shelf contains several demersal fish and crustacean species. |
|
| The Agreement is clearly profitable in that the value of the cephalopods, fish and demersal species that can be caught in the Republic of Guinea under the Agreement far exceeds its cost. |
|
| The young tend to occupy a pelagic habitat, but shift to a more demersal lifestyle with maturity. |
|
| The fish swimming freely in the body of the water column, known as pelagic fish, and those near the bottom, called demersal fish, each take their share of the surface crumbs as they fall to the sea floor. |
|
| Recent changes in technical measures as a part of the cod and hake recovery plans considerably improved selectivity, particularly for towed demersal nets. |
|
|
|
| Some Member States have used these instruments already and the Community has in the past three years imposed day-at-sea restrictions in several demersal fisheries. |
|
| Moreover, the inspection of landings of deep-sea species are usually carried out alongside the inspection of much larger quantities of demersal landings, and are sometimes considered to be of lower priority. |
|
| In order to help the local economy and create jobs in the country itself, we have agreed that demersal fish trawlers must now land a larger proportion of their catches in Mauritania. |
|
| The Commission believes that the regulation represents a fair and vigorous response to the problems raised by the honourable Member as far as both demersal and small pelagic species are concerned. |
|
| Rather than organise a third meeting of the workshop on demersal fisheries in the Celtic Sea it was considered preferable to hold a geographically larger workshop covering all the relevant fisheries, but restricted to hake. |
|
| Studies of demersal fish and cold-water corals have confirmed that there is a high diversity of those species in the area as compared with other parts of the Scotian Shelf. |
|
| Allow me, however, to say that with regard to demersal species, the opportunities for pelagic fishing have vanished and the opportunities for tuna fishing have remained at the same level. |
|
| Work by Engas and Godo indicates that the effective width of a demersal trawl used for sampling gadoids is related to fish size. |
|
| It shall be prohibited to retain on board a Community fishing vessel in any box, compartment or container any quantity of catches of demersal stocks subject to a multiannual plan mixed with any other fisheries product. |
|
| In deep waters, the fishes of the demersal zone are active and relatively abundant, compared to fishes of the bathypelagic zone. |
|
| The Arafura Sea is a rich fishery resource, particularly for shrimp and demersal fishing. |
|
| During offshore demersal trawling, seals drowned in the nets on the west coast only. |
|
| This will become a primary feeding area for demersal fish off the coast of Fujairah. |
|
| Alternatively, marine habitats can be divided into pelagic and demersal habitats. |
|
| Cod is the common name for the genus Gadus of demersal fishes, belonging to the family Gadidae. |
|
| The Agulhas Bank is also significant for fisheries who use demersal trawling, demersal longline fishing, and midwater trawl fishing on the bank. |
|
| It has therefore been described as a reasonable alternative to demersal towed gears, and the allocation of additional fishing rights for this type of take has been suggested. |
|
| South Africa has a relatively large fishing industry mostly catching pelagic pilchard and anchovy and demersal Hake on the south and western coasts. |
|
| One will assess demersal scalefish stocks along WA s south coast, focusing on the indicator species bight redfish, pink snapper, blue groper and blue morwong. |
|
| At a certain age, however, the Cape horse mackerel in the northern Benguela tend to adopt a more demersal lifestyle, thus entering into the bottom dead zone. |
