Description | |
Summary | The materials were sampled over the 1980-1999 period, and due to ICES working groups' request sampling was prolonged to years 2000-2001. Fish samples were collected mostly during research surveys organized by the Sea Fisheries Institute in Gdynia and, to a lesser degree, directly from the catches and landings of the Polish commercial fishing fleet. At least two random samples per month in the pre-spawning and at the beginning of spawning seasons and ICES Sub-division, with no preference to fishing location, were examined. Length measurements of 104,072 herring and 61,176 sprat from the 1980-2001 period and the ichthyological analyses of 13,915 herring and 12,067 sprat specimens formed the basis for the calculations. |
