Summary: National Marine Fisheries Research Programme on development
and management of te Adriatic sea resources, dominantly within
teritorrial and coastal regions of Republica Croatia, has been realized
throughout "Stock assessment and management of renuable resources" of the
Institute of Oceanograpy and Fisheries - Split. This marine fisheries
resources programme has been dealt with: coastal, pelagic and demersal
commercial stocks. Monitoring of pelagic stocks has been carried out
throughout of small-scales research activities (commercial catch sampling,
eggs and larvaes surveys, echo-surveys). Demersal resouces of the Adriatic
sea have been jointly controled by italian scientists (Laboratorio di
biologia marina e pesca - Fano) while coastal multi-species resources have
been monitored by means of small-scale coastal fishing gears. During
1994/1995 year a significant efforts has been devoted to the new national
Fishery Law for protection and development of the national, coomercial,
fisheries in the Adriatic as well as achievment of precautionary
approaches in the fishey.
Research goals: Principal goals of the national project "Stock
Assessment andManagement of te Adriatic Sea Resources" is to evaluate the
stateand lavel of the exploitation of the commercial stocks
(fishes,crustaceans, cephalopods) of the three ecological
(production)category: PELAGIC, DEMERSAL and COASTAL resources. In
thismarine-fisheries studies, mostly along the eastern Adriaticcoast,
direct methods approaches have been used, such as:sampling sistem of
commercial catches, market control, echo andbottom trawl survayes. Talking
into account that great parts ofthe Adriatic renuable resources make
"common" and "shared"stocks it has been intended to establish joint
monitoringprogrammes with italian scientists especially for
commercialstokc evaluation and management measures negotiation.
