Hidrology and ecosystem evaluation
Caracterización termohalina y biogeoquímica en las aguas oceánicas de la región Galicia-Cantábrico en tres transectos estándar perpendiculares a la costa en Finisterre, Ortegal y Cabo Mayor cubriendo la columna de agua hasta unos 5000m. Dichos transectos forman parte de la serie temporal de campañas semestrales iniciada en 2003 que se encuadran en la estrategia de monitorización oceánica asociados a los principios del programa internacional CLIVAR..
Abundance indices, distribution patterns and faunal assemblages of demersal species in the northern coast of Spain (Atlantic Galician shelf and Cantabrian sea shelf), together with the possible driving factors of their distribution. This survey belongs to the research project: ?Evaluacion de Recursos Demersales por Metodos Directos en el Area ICES?. This Project is partly funded by the DCR of the EU and the Education and Science Spanish Ministery.The main objectives of the above mentioned project related with this survey time series are: a) to obtain abundance indices of the main exploited species in the study area; b) to estimate the strength of yearly recruitments of these species and their distribution in the area. c) to study the structure and distribution o the demersal and benthic communities in the area.
Hidrology and ecosystem evaluation
Oceanographic survey collected in the framework of the following research project: 'Metodos de Produccion de Huevos. Estimacion de la biomasa de especies pelagicas de interes comercial: sardina, anchoa, caballa y jurel (ICTIOEVA)'. This Project is funded by the Instituto Español de Oceanografia and the main scientific objective is to produce an index and a direct estimate of the spawning stock biomass of Sardine (Sardine pilchardus) in the Cantabrian Sea and Bay of Biscay (to 45°N) using the Daily Egg Production Method (DEPM). Specific aims:a) To estimate the spawning area distribution of sardine and the daily egg production. b) To collect adults to obtain fecundity estimation c) Distribution and abundance of other commercial species of interest: mackerel, horse mackerel and anchovy.d) To describe the oceanographic and meteorological character of the area of study with the aim of relating environmental conditions (temperature, salinity, currents) with the spatial distribution of the ichthyoplankton
