EVRWE is a multiannual survey with the following objectives:
- Building up time series of abundance indices for the main dermersal and benthic species in the Celtic Sea and the Bay of Biscay.
- Measuring inter-annual changes in their recruitment.
- Mapping the spatial distributions of the species and their inter-annual variations, as well as looking for the origin of this variability (biotic and/or abiotic parameters, fisheries impact).
- In the framework of the 'Bay of Biscay' challenge, the data collected are vital for understanding changes in faunal communities.
