  1. Moving away from the fish-eye view Integrating Surveys for the Ecosystem Approach 29 May 2013, Ingeborg de Boois (WGISUR)

  2. Fish surveys: main purpose

  3. How to create a survey that can provide information for ecosystem management • Supplying information from surveys to MSFD

  4. Surveys for the ecosystem approach Maagbemonstering Design ecosystem survey from scratch Add to current fish survey + + + ... http://www.mghs.sa.edu.au/internet/curriculum/science/Year10/ecosystemEarth.htm +

  5. Add to current fish survey many tasks can be added to a fish survey; additional resources might be required selection of specific tasks is necessary, as we cannot carry out all tasks at the same time

  6. Surveys for the ecosystem approach Maagbemonstering Design ecosystem survey from scratch Add to current fish survey + + + ... http://www.mghs.sa.edu.au/internet/curriculum/science/Year10/ecosystemEarth.htm +

  7. Design ecosystem survey from scratch • 1. Problem identification (Issues) • 5. Pilot study • 2. Framework (settings, logistics) • 6. • Survey Preparation is (almost) everything • 3. Survey objectives (detailed) • 7. • Use of results • 4. Survey design

  8. The difference Design ecosystem survey from scratch Add tasks to current fish surveys Priority=sampling for fish stock assessment No guarantee for additional information, unless additional money is provided Priority=sampling for ecosystem assessment Guarantee for data suitable for ecosystem assessment, but maybe not sufficient information for specific topics (like fish stock assessment) Money rules the priorities, weather might rule the survey

  9. How to create a survey that can provide information for ecosystem management • Supplying information from surveys to MSFD

  10. MSFD & (fish) surveys ICES survey WG OSPAR What scale do we manage, research and monitor? Scaling to national priorities in MSFD a threat to Regional approach? EU National governments National institutes

  11. How to match scaling? National MSFD assessment areas (source EEA) National MSFD assessment areas (source EEA)

  12. When can we jump on the running train? many tasks can be added to a fish survey; additional resources might be required Article 11(1);(b) programme of measures: • development, by 2015 at the latest, of a programme of measures (....) • entry into operation of the programme provided for in point (i), by 2016 at the latest(...) selection of specific tasks is necessary, as we cannot carry out all tasks at the same time Preparation is (almost) everything
