Besides, this action aims to estimate catch composition in order to evaluate the métier interaction with benthic communities. Specific activities are:

  • Organizing a training seminar in Italy to implement the agreed protocol and the rest of activities.
  • Identifying local artisanal fishing activities according to métier.
  • To analyze the activity of selected métiers to evaluate the impact of fishing activities on benthic communities.
