Status of Fishing Conditions in Japan in Relation to Responsible Fisheries
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
The presence of a large number of species that are low in quantity in Japan's coastal waters has resulted in the evolution of a food culture that has historically utilized most of the catch species and sizes that are caught ...
Application of the Australian Trawl Efficiency Device in Australia s Northern Prawn Fishery
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
The following paper is made up of three field trip reports covering the testing and commercial use of the Australia Trawl Efficiency Device (AusTED). The work was carried out in the Northern Prawn Fishery (NPF) aboard five ...
Experiments on the Use of Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) in Malaysian Waters
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
Trawl experiments deploying a research vessel and two chartered fishermen s boats were conducted to study the suitability of different types of Turtle Excluder Devices attached to the local shrimp trawl nets. A total of ...
Southeast United States Fisheries Bycatch Reduction Research in Shrimp Trawl Fisheries
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
Presented in the paper are the two devices that were developed by some states in the southeast United States to reduce fisheries bycatch in shrimp trawls. These were Turtle Excluder Device (TED) and Bycatch Reduction Device ...
Methodology of Evaluating Selectivity Performance - Two Selective Processes of Trawl Sorting Devices: Fish Encountering and Being Sieved
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
The mesh selectivity of each mesh size is a basic study for size-sorting, and usually expresses the proportion retained as a function of the body length of a fish. It is however likely to depend more directly on the ...
Fish Behaviour Approach for Improving Trawl Gear Selectivity
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
Gear selectivity has been a gold-medal goal for research and development in Fishing Technology, for the purpose to increase the target catch and to decrease the bycatch. In case of trawl fisheries, the gear designing by ...
The Experiments on Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) for Shrimp Trawl Nets in Thailand
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
The purpose of this paper is to determine a suitable type of Turtle Excluder Device (TED) attached to the body of a shrimp trawl to avoid inflicting harm on marine turtles. Seven types of the TEDs were tested; three brought ...
Study on Turtle Excluder and By-catch Reduction Devices in the Philippines
(Training Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1997)
Experimental test-fishing of different TED types, namely : modified Thai Turtle Free Device (TTFD), Super Shooter (SS) and Hooped TED were conducted for eight (8) fishing days in March and April 1997 in Manila Bay. Assessment ...
