Sample-based fishery surveys. A technical handbook

The purpose of this handbook is to summarize experience gained over recent
years in fishery statistical development by the Fishery Information, Data
and Statistics Unit (FIDI) of FAO, and provide planners and users of fishery
surveys with simple and step-by-step guidance for developing and
implementing cost-effective and sustainable fishery surveys. The
methodological and operational concepts discussed here apply equally to
marine and inland capture fisheries and are presented in a manner that is
generic enough to make them adaptable to most commonly used data collection
systems. Statistical aspects are presented in a descriptive rather than
theoretical manner. Emphasis is placed on the understanding and
interpretation of the statistics and related indicators collected, rather
than on the computations producing them. Readers interested in a more
in-depth discussion on statistical and computing approaches may make use of
the list of references that is given at the end of the handbook.
