Western Channel sole and plaice 2019/20 - Fisheries Science Partnership

One of the Fisheries Science Partnership (FSP) survey series of Western
Channel sole and plaice. The survey’s main aim is to show trends in the
distribution, abundance and age composition of sole (*Solea solea*) and
plaice (*Pleuronectes platessa*), and to provide some information on bycatch
species. At each station sampled, shot and haul, positional, depth and times
information were recorded, and for all species of fish and shellfish length
distribution data were taken. Otoliths were collected from sole and plaice to
provide individual age at length information.

该数据集属于西方海峡鳎鱼和比目鱼的渔业科学合作伙伴计划（FSP）调查系列。调查的主要目的是展示鳎鱼（Solea solea）和比目鱼（Pleuronectes platessa）的分布、丰度和年龄组成的趋势，并就捕获物中的其他物种提供相关信息。在每个采样站，均记录了射击和拖曳的定位、深度和时间信息，并对所有鱼类和贝类的长度分布数据进行了采集。此外，从鳎鱼和比目鱼中收集了耳石，以提供个体长度年龄信息。
