Invertebrate bycatch in Patagonian scallop fishing grounds: a study case with data obtained by the On Board Observers Program
Since the beginning of the Patagonian scallop fishery Zygochlamys patagonica, in the Argentine Sea in 1996, an On-Board Observers Program (OBOP) was established at the National Institute of Fishery Research and Development (INIDEP). The general trends of the bycatch composition and biomass were anal...

The general trends of the bycatch composition and biomass were analysed from information on catches and fishing effort (219 trips, 575 samples), collected in five scallop beds between 39º and 44º S during the period 1997-2002, provided by the OBOP.
