Synopsis de la classification des larves et des nymphes de diptères chironomidae des ecosystèmes dulçaquicoles de l'Afrique de l'Ouest: clés de détermination des sous-familles, des tribus et des genres

Synopsis of this numerically very important Diptera category, which is dominant and consequently of relevance in most aquatic environments.

Statistiques de pêche des sardiniers ivoiriens - année 1983

The sardinella fleet landed the same quantity of sardines in 1983 (11200 tons) as in 1982. Sardinella aurita catches would be more important if the "Syndicat des Armateurs" did not impose quotas - in July 300 boxes and in August 100 boxes by fleet by trip. The extension of the effort to herring stock increased the catches of this species and an over estimation of 44% of the effort have been observed in 1983.

Analyses physico-chimiques des eaux de la Lagune Ebrié effectuées de 1979 à 1981 au cours des programmes "Variabilité interannuelle" et "Baie de Biétri"

Physico-chemical data collections aimed to assess the interannual variability of the lagoon hydroclimate and the impact of an airport dam on the water quality of the Ebrié lagoon.

Statistiques de peche des chalutiers ivoiriens - annee 1981

This publication gives fishery statistics relating to the landings of the Ivorian trawlers in Abidjan in 1981. 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.

Campagnes Nizery: Togo 1 (26 et 27/01/83) et Togo 2 (07 au 10/06/83). Resultats des chalutages

This publication gives the results of the bottom trawlings made during the cruises Togo 1 and Togo 2 by the oceanographic research vessel "Andre Nizery" on the continental shelf of Togo during the estimation program of halieutic resources. The report includes: 1 - The report of the cruises Togo 1 and Togo 2; 2 - Some information on the presentation of the results; 3 - The trawl recording cards for the 2 cruises; 4 - The length frequency distributions of the measured samples.

Transformation empirique des tables numeriques de Galton en tables des probits

Comparison between Galton equation and preston normal logarithms models allowed an empirical reconstitution of probits tables.

Die Entwicklung des Aufwandes in der deutschen Garnelenfischerei und der Versuch einer Standardisierung der jährlichen Einheitsanlandungen (LPUE) zwischen 1976 und 2010

Brown shrimp is a fastgrowing, shortlived species, and all attempts to use stock assessment methodologies typically applied to other fisheries are usually unsuccessful. Here landings per unit effort data (LPUE) for the German fleet based on a number of effort metrics are used as indices of stock size. Their utility in relation to describing stock development and fisheries management is discussed. LPUE estimates indicate that stock sizes between 1976 and 1989 were relatively stable. In 1990, the lowest reported landings of brown shrimps in Germany coincided with severe economic problems for the shrimp fisheries. From 1990 to 2010 standardised annual indices show that both landings and LPUE estimates have increased at variable rates suggesting large stocks of brown shrimps in recent years. This is discussed in relation to the positive effects of reduced predator abundance and favourable climatic factors.

Synthèse des travaux effectués au CRO sur les végétations envahissantes flottantes (1985-1990). Propositions et recommandations

The present document represents a synthesis of the scientific knowledge gathered by the CRO in the years 1985-1990, and related to the proliferation of aquatic macrophytes, commonly called floating aquatic weeds, in the Ebrié lagoon.
