Campagne Nizery Togo 7 (19 au 21-O7-84): resultats des chalutages

This publication gives the results of the bottom trawlings made during the cruise TOGO 7 by the oceanographic research vessel Andre Nizery on the continental shelf of Togo during the estimation program of halieutic resources.

Statistiques de peche des chalutiers ivoiriens - annee 1982

This publication gives fishery statistics relating to the landings of the ivorian trawlers in Abidjan in 1982. The data used are the inquiries made by the C.R.O. on the boats and the auction sheets of the fishing harbour. The data processing was executed on the C.R.O. computer.

Statistiques des peche des sardiniers ivoiriens - annee 1981

This publication shows the statistics of the sardinella fleet in 1981. These statistics are the catches and the effort by sector every two weeks. These data come also by month. At the end, ara listed the prices of the fresh fish in boxes at the criee. 1981 has been better than 1980, mainly for Sardinella aurita.

Campagnes Chalci, Chalci 84-01 (du 17 au 25-01-84) et Chalci 84-02 (du 03 au 11-07-84): resultats des chalutages

This publication gives the results of bottom trawlings made during the cruises CHALCI 84-01 and CHALCI 84-02 by the oceanographic research vessel "Andre NIZERY" sur le plateau continental ivoirien.

Observations de la temperature et des courants sur le plateau continental ivoirien

The Centre de Recherches Océanographiques d'Abidjan has carried out the HYDROBIOCLIMAT program in order to study the seasonal and interannual fluctuations of the physical and biological parameters over the continental shelf of Ivory Coast ; two subsurface moorings with from one to three AANDERAA current meters fixed on the lines, were deployed in front of Abidjan and San Pedro. Temperature and current measurement records are presented at these two locations.

La pêche artisanale en lagune Aby (Côte d'Ivoire): analyse des captures en 1988 et 1989

The exploitation of fish stocks in Aby lagoon was marked by an increase of total fishing effort, yields and therefore by the increase of total production. Fishing effort evolution was due to: the increasing of the number of beach seines which has increased from 26 in 1987 to 32 in 1988, the reappearance of syndicat seines and finally the importance of fishing teams activity.

Campagnes Chalci, Chalci 83-01 (du 11 au 19-01-83) et Chalci 83-02 (du 10 au 18-03-83): resultats des chalutages

This publication gives the results of bottom trawlings made during the cruises Chalci 83.01 and Chalci 83.02 by the oceanographic research vessel "André Nizery", on the ivorian continental shelf. The publication content is: - an introduction explaining the form of results; the trawl recording cards with the characteristics of trawl and the detail of catches by species; the length frequency distributions of the measured samples.

Lagune de Biétri: bathymétrie, courants et taux de renouvellement des eaux

An estimation of the currents in the Biétri bay is given (tidal currents and currents due to the wind). They are lower than 10 cm.s-1 in the whole lagoon, and near of 5 cm.s-1 in the eastern part. The measures of salinity and tidal observations give the average rate of water renewal, respectively 0.20 and 0.14 d-1 in the central and eastern areas.

Stations cotières et station Vridi: exploitation des données des années 1984 et 1985

Along the Ivorian seaboard we have seven (7) stations where sea water temperature is measured every morning between 7:30 and 8:00. The hydrologic station of Vridi located at point A (5°05N, 4°05W) is generally exploited twice a week. In this report we are going to deal with data collected in 1984 and 1985. The irregularity of the dynamic height at point A enables us to identify water masses that go over the continental plateau.
