Summary of measurements

Systematic echointegration (done at 8 knots on legs from coast to offshore, perpendicular to the coast and 12 min apart) using MOVIES+ and SIMRAD EK500-38 and 120 kHz and OSSIAN 12 and 200 kHz echosounders.
-Trawl hauls to identify echoes (39, 13 of which done with 4FF).
- Biometry of pelagic species.
-Bathymetric (T, S) profiles done at the end of each trawl haul (26 CTD).
-Continuous T (Temperature) and S (Salinity) recorded at subsurface (1,600 NM).
-Continuous recording of echograms sent by sounders 38, 49, 12 and 200 kHz. (1,745 NM).
-Anchovy and sardine samples taken (700 samples for otolith collection, taken in 7 hauls).
