They also provide both shellfish stock assessment and sampling of marine and migratory fish species in coastal and estuarine environments.

Multi-method sampling in our intertidal fish surveys is conducted using WFD-compliant approaches, incorporating:

  • adult and juvenile seine netting
  • fyke netting
  • cast netting
  • gillnetting

We also provide stock assessments of commercial cockle and mussel beds in the intertidal zone, often involving Dutch wand walk-over surveying, drone-mapping techniques and grab sampling aboard vessels at high water.
