Manual on Sample-Based Data Collection for Fisheries Assessment Examples from V Fisheries Technical Papers

This manual deals with the practical implementation of a routine data collection programme. This programme is developed through a top-down approach, from the identification of the objectives down to the practical recording and management of data obtained from the fishery. The issues are dealt with through both detailed discussion and by using simple examples. These examples are mostly based on situations in tropical fisheries and, in particular, experience has been drawn from developing a data collection programme in Viet Nam. The main questions addressed in the manual are which fisheries data to collect, where and when to collect them.FAO Staff is the author of 'Manual on Sample-Based Data Collection for Fisheries Assessment Examples from V Fisheries Technical Papers' with ISBN 9789251045268 and ISBN 9251045267.
