S144 Themis opgraderer

okt 20, 2023

Som det første fartøj i Danmark, har Themis Rederi A/S besluttet at opgradere deres akustikpakke til også at indeholde Simrads EK80 ekkolod!

EK80, er et ekkolod udviklet til videnskabelige opmålinger og dataindsamling. Beslutningen, som er taget af Anders Ryberg, er en kulmination af Themis’ mangeårige arbejde med at involvere sig i videnskabeligt arbejde.

Claus Sparrevohn fra Danmarks Pelagiske Producentorganisation udtaler at “Denne beslutning betyder, at Themis og DPPO nu er i en position, hvor de kan opmåle og indsamle akustikdata, af en form og kvalitet, der gør at denne kan bruges direkte til videnskabelige formål. Denne position har allerede udmøntet sig i, at Themis nu er aktive partnere i et kommende projekt med DTU Aqua, hvor fokus er på en forbedret og mere sikker Nordsø brisling bestandsvurdering.”

Stort tillykke til S144 Themis, og vi glæder os til at se hvilke indsigter og opdagelser, denne data kan bringe med sig.

HG 333 Isafold, Danish fishing company sets science-based targets for nature as part of pioneering SBTN Ocean work

Danish pelagic fishing vessel HG 333 Isafold has taken an important new step in its work to better understand and reduce its impacts on marine nature. As part of the Science Based Targets Network’s Ocean Pilot, HG 333 Isafold has developed science-based targets addressing structural marine habitats and endangered, threatened and protected marine wildlife. These targets have been validated by the Accountability Accelerator, offering an independent stamp of approval and ensuring the analysis is in line with the best available science.

Years of collaboration between fishers and scientists proves its value: Danish survey finds 42 percent of mackerel biomass

A long-standing collaboration between DTU Aqua and the Danish Pelagic Producers Organisation (DPPO) on collecting data on the mackerel stock in the North Sea has developed into an important contribution to the ICES stock assessment. In this year’s survey, around 42 percent of the total recorded biomass and as much as 63 percent of the young mackerel were found in the area of the North Sea surveyed by the DPPO member vessel S205 Ceton as part of the International Ecosystem Summer Survey in the Nordic Seas (IESSNS).
