Summary of measurements

-Systematic echo-integration (performed at 8 knots on inshore to offshore legs perpendicular to the coast and spaced out).
-Trawl hauls to identify echoes (60 performed, 18 of which using the 4FF).
-Biometry of pelagic species.
-Bathymetric (T, S%O) profiles performed at the end of each trawl haul (55 CTD casts).
-Bathymetric profiles, hydrology (surface and bottom), 50µm and 200µm WP2 nets: at 15 stations.
-Continuous T (Temperature) and S%O (Salinity) recorded at subsurface (3000 NM).
-Continuous recording of echograms sent by 12, 38, 70, 120 and 200 kHz sounders (3151 NM).
-Anchovy and sardine otholith samples taken and included with EUKITT (400 samples, taken in 13 hauls).
-Otolith samples collected and biometry measured for 150 hake.
