Cyclopterus lumpus in the Sylt Rømø bight in 2009@en

Due to changing temperature regimes in the North- and the Wadden Sea, a fish survey in the Sylt Rømø bight (SRB) was established in 2007 for at least ten years. The aim is to investigate the Wadden Sea fish fauna with special interest in changes of migration behavior, species composition and feeding habits. Seven stations are sampled monthly inside the SRB. Two additional stations, one outside the bight, one close to the Danish border are sampled as references four times a year. For sampling a mini bottom trawl, total length 17 m, trawl opening 7 m, height 3 m with a mesh size of 36 mm in the wings, 16 mm in the mid part and 6 mm in the cod end is used. At every station one haul in the water column and another at the bottom are sampled, for 15 minutes at a speed of approximately 2 knots. The data will help to give a more detailed picture of food chains and energy flows inside the Wadden Sea.鉴于北海与瓦登海的温度格局发生改变，叙尔特-勒姆湾（Sylt Rømø bight，简称SRB）鱼类调查项目于2007年启动，计划至少持续十年。本调查旨在研究瓦登海鱼类区系，重点关注其洄游行为、物种组成及摄食习性的变化。SRB海域内共设置7个采样站位，每月开展一次采样；另外增设2个参照站位：1个位于海湾外侧，1个毗邻丹麦边境，每年采样4次。本次采样采用总长17米的小型底拖网：拖网开口宽7米、高3米，网翼网目尺寸为36毫米，网身中部网目尺寸为16毫米，囊网网目尺寸为6毫米。每个站位分别进行一次水层拖曳采样与一次底层拖曳采样，单次采样时长15分钟，拖曳速度约为2节。本项目所获数据将有助于更细致地刻画瓦登海海域内的食物链与能量流动格局。
