ROV evaluation to analyze fishing pressure on benthic habitat

1 Evaluar el impacto de la pesca artesanal sobre las comunidades bentonicas en el canal de Menorca.

1.Estimar índices de abundancia de reclutas y juveniles de langosta. 2.Determinar la estructura demográfica y distribución batimétrica de los juveniles. 3.Estimar la abundancia y demografía de la langosta mediante técnicas de video sumergido con cebo. 4.Evaluar el efecto de la ampliación de la reserva marina mediante video sumergido y censos visuales. 5.Obtener muestras de ejemplares recién asentados talla inferior a 15 mm LC (Longitud de Cefalotórax) para estudios de genética de poblaciones y composición isotópica.

The goals of this campaign are framed within the objectives of the overall project 'Radial Profunda de Canarias', being the experimental cruise of the proposal. Thus, this cruise will help to: ¿ Determine the structure of the current when it reaches the Canary Islands, mass transport, heat and nutrients and interannual variability. ¿ Characterize the different modes of variability of heat and mass transport in easternorth atlantic subtropical gyre. ¿ Characterize the annual cycle in the physical conditions of the surface layers and mixture to where the seasonal cycle is significant, relating it to the meteorological forcings. ¿ Characterization of changes in water masses, mainly in the North Atlantic Central Water (NACW), in Antarctic Atlantic Intermediate Water (AAIW) in Mediterranean Water (MW) and bottom waters of the Canary Basin, in based on temperature, salinity, nutrients and oxygen.
