Burrow emergence rhythms of Nephrops norvegicus by UWTV and surveying biases
Abstract Underwater Television (UWTV) surveys provide fishery-independent stock size estimations of the Norway lobster (Nephrops norvegicus), based directly on burrow counting using the survey assumption of “one animal = one burrow”. However, stock size may be uncertain depending on true rates of bu...
