Fishing Statistics - Effort (days) by UK vessels >10m length using passive gear in Scottish waters (per ICES statistical rectangle) 2013-2017

Description

Effort (days) derived from UK-registered commercial fishing activity in Scottish seas using passive gears (set nets, lines, creels/pots and traps), as recorded in last five years of published statistics. Data is redacted if less than five vessels operate within an ICES statistical rectangle (values = -1).

Data derived from logbook data provided to the UK fishing authorities as required under EU or national legislation.

Users are recommended to zoom in to see the detail of the graph axes.  For each layer, the colour of the ICES rectangle represents the data for the most recent year. Rectangles cross-hatched indicate that fishing takes but the data are disclosive (cannot be displayed for reasons of commercial confidentiality).
