Objective Estimation of the abundance of small pelagic fish, with special focus on anchovy juveniles, in the southern part of the Bay of Biscay. Mapping the the distribution of these populations. Study of the distribution of anchovy and sardine eggs. Biological samples from species of interest (e.g.). Particularly for anchovies, analysis of stomach contents for the characterization of the food regime and of otholiths for the study of daily growth rates. Continuous sampling of additional variables for the characterization of the ambient environment. Study of the hydrographic conditions and distribution of plankton components in order to define the physical and biological processes which are relevant for the regulation of the species of interest
