Campagne Rythnic 07/05/1980 - 15/05/1980: résultats des chalutages pour l'étude des variations nycthémérales d'abondance des espèces démersales de Côte d'Ivoire

As explained in the title, this campaign aimed to assess the diurnal vertical variations in abundance of demersal species off the Côte d'Ivoire

Station hydrologique cotière d'Abidjan de 1966 à 1980

In this document the monthly T-S diagrams and the regression lines of the temperature and salinity two weeks mean values have been drawn for 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 meters of depth. The annual variations of the dynamic height anomaly are represented for every coastal station from 1966 to 1980.

Campagne Chalci 80-01 (20/8/1980-10/9/1980): résultats des chalutages

One additional Chalci campaign that, in line with the previous Chalci campaigns 78-01, 78-02, and 79/01, has as its major objective the trawl exploration of the Ivoirian continental shelf at the depth of 10 to 120 metres.

Stations cotieres et station hydrologique cotiere d'Abidjan: annees 1980-1981

Beach surface temperature is recorded every morning between 7h30 and 8h00 at each coastal station. On figure 2, 3, 4 and 5 it has been plotted daily variation and mean variation computed on 7, 15 and 30 days basis of sea surface temperature. However it seems that variations of dynamic height anomaly are reflecting more accurately the stages of the coastal upwelling than the sea surface temperature.

Communication mer-lagune: impact d'une réouverture sur l'ichtyofaune de la lagune Ebrié (Côte d'Ivoire)

The artificial reopening of the lagoon inlet, made in Grand-Bantam in September 1987 in order to reduce the aquatic weeds proliferation, induced some environmental and fish communities alterations in the eastern part of the Ebrié lagoon (Côte d'Ivoire). A preliminary field survey made in May 1988 shows an increase in the salinity rate and an increase of the marine component among fish communities, when compared to the former ecological state of this lagoon area (reference data of 1980 and 1981).

Concentrations en mercure dans les muscles de thons albacores (Thunnus albacares) du golfe de Guinee (1987-1988)

Samples of albacore tunny-fish (Thunnus albacares) caught from East Tropical Atlantic areas have been analysed in white and red muscles in order to determine the concentration of mercury. The results show that there are no significant differences between the mercury concentrations in the white and in the red muscles, and that a significant correlation exists between the mercury concentrations in the two types of muscles.

Summary of fishery statistics, 1980

This fisheries report summarises developments of the year 1980 in the region of the North West Water Authority. It provides catch statistics, rod and line and commercial catches for salmon and sea trout, fish culture and hatchery operations, restocking with trout and freshwater fish, upstream fish movement recorded at Authority fish counters, counts of salmon and sea trout spawning redds, fish mortalities, licences issued, and prosecutions.

Summary of fishery statistics, 1987

Report on the 1980/81 angling census in the Sanyati Gorge, Lake Kariba

The angling census carried out in the Sanyati Gorge, August 1980 - March 1981, is reported. The results are compared to those obtained in the 1973 census. The objectives of the census were: 1) to determine the extent of angling mortality on tigerfish (Hydrocynus vittatus) thereby quantifying this previously neglected component of total mortality; and 2) to assess the economic importance of tigerfish to the recreational fishery on Lake Kariba.

A bibliography of Lake Kariba 1987-1994

The bibliography contains some 116 citations, including unpublished reports and manuscripts, regarding Lake Kariba. Most of the reports are from the Zambia/Zimbabwe SADC Fisheries and Lake Kariba Fisheries Research Institute. The citations are listed in alphabetical order according to author.

Annual report 1987

The 1987 Annual Report of the Lake Kariba Fisheries Research Institute details the various research projects conducted during the year, which covered the following topics: ecology of the submerged vascular vegetation; biology and population dynamics of the butter catfish; post-harvest fish technology and management; sardine population structure; and analysis of the inshore fish.

1980 Fisheries statistics - Kariba

The 1980 statistics of the open-water sardine (Limnothrissa miodon ) fisheries and gill-net fisheries are presented. Summaries of total production and total effort, landings inshore and gill-net fisheries are also presented.
