European Fisheries and Aquaculture Organisations
EFARO, The European Fisheries and Aquaculture Organisation, is an association composed of the Directors of the main European Research Institutes involved in Fisheries and Aquaculture research founded under a consensus agreement in 1989. The starting point was the desire to achieve greater cohesion and coordination of Community fisheries R + D. Today EFARO unites 3000 researchers and research assistants in 23 institutes in 19 European countries. |

Fishindicators - EU project IMAGE (Indicators for fisheries MAnaGement in Europe)
The project ‘Indicators for fisheries MAnaGement in Europe’ (IMAGE) seeks to develop an operational framework of candidate indicators to support ecosystem-based fisheries management, to elaborate these indicators into comprehensive dashboards to support management decision making, to develop methodology to integrate this information into tools supporting the decision making process, to develop a framework that can evaluate management strategies based on indicators, and to test their applicability in regional case studies, taking into account the diversity of the fishery systems in Europe. |

RECLAIM - (REsolving CLimAtic IMpacts of fish stocks)
Climate change will impact fisheries resources and challenge managers to develop sustainable exploitation strategies. Knowledge on the impacts of climate on fisheries resources is still fragmentary. RECLAIM is scientific research project funded by the European Union which will summarize current knowledge, test process understanding, improve predictive capacity and formulate future research hypotheses about the impact of climate change on North-East Atlantic fish stocks. |

Survey Reports IMARES
Marine fisheries can be grouped into two types: demersal fisheries (close to the sea bottom) and pelagic fisheries on schooling fish (mid water).
Scientific surveys carried out by IMARES cover both types of fisheries.
