Introduction
Importance of bycatch and discards issuesTerminology
Tuna discards (major tunas and small tunas)Bycatch (associated species discarded or
valorized)Objectives :
EstimationMain characteritsics
• Species composition• Length and sex structure• Utilisation
Data and Methods (1 of 4)
Data Collection Regulation (Reg. 1543/2000 and 1639/2001)
France (IRD), Spain (AZTI, IEO)10 % coverage targetedMethods (Observer programs)
Route and environment Fishing operation Tuna length structure tuna Associated species biological and length characteristics Floating device
Data and Methods (2 of 2)
Spain started in 2003 and France in 2005Preparation of data. FAD, FSC, Msm (5 miles)Extrapolation
Stratification• Quarter• Fishing mode (FAD, FSC, MSM)• Zone ET (“Echantillonnage thonier”)• Estimation for large groups of species (discarded
tunas, billfishes, fishes, sharks, rays)
Confidence interval by re sampling method
