  3. Introduction • Importance of bycatch and discards issues • Terminology • Tuna discards (major tunas and small tunas) • Bycatch (associated species discarded or valorized) • Objectives : • Estimation • Main characteritsics • Species composition • Length and sex structure • Utilisation

  4. Data and Methods (1 of 4) • Data Collection Regulation (Reg. 1543/2000 and 1639/2001) • France (IRD), Spain (AZTI, IEO) • 10 % coverage targeted • Methods (Observer programs) • Route and environment • Fishing operation • Tuna length structure tuna • Associated species biological and length characteristics • Floating device

  5. Data and Methods (2 of 2) • Spain started in 2003 and France in 2005 • Preparation of data. FAD, FSC, Msm (5 miles) • Extrapolation • Stratification • Quarter • Fishing mode (FAD, FSC, MSM) • Zone ET (“Echantillonnage thonier”) • Estimation for large groups of species (discarded tunas, billfishes, fishes, sharks, rays) • Confidence interval by re sampling method
