Oceanographic cruise - EVRWE (Evaluation of Fishery Resources in Western Europe)

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.
