Production processes


Project code: TI-SF-08-PID1594
Contract period: 01.07.2013 - 01.06.2015
Purpose of research: Applied research

Climate change, fisheries and further parameters affect the marine living resources. To determine these dynamics, the Thünen Institute of Sea Fisheries develops a technologically new underwater fish obsvervatory. We aim at capturing fish and their natural environment synoptically, at a high resolution, continuously and non-invasively in an automated fashion. The data acquisition is even possible where research vessels cannot go to or where these are prohibited (wind farms, protected areas, mariculture, gillnet areas, etc.). With the data obtained, the dynamics and the state of the captured fish populations can be analysed, the size of stocks be calculated and the fisheries be managed.
