(HCMR)
A time-series of observers data on board fishing vessels targeting swordfish in the eastern Mediterranean by means of surface long-lines has been analyzed to identify areas/seasons with relatively higher catch/rates of juvenile fish. Analysis revealed high intra-annual variability and identified juvenile “hot spot” areas in certain months.
