This study focused on identifying and estimating the number of rays sharks caught incidentally in Moroccan Mediterranean Sea their seasonal variation. In 2020, from 62 bottom trawl surveys, it was estimated that elasmobranchs represent 6.67% (25 kg) total catch (372 kg/trip) per trip Al Hoceima Bay. Raja clavata Scyliorhinus canicula were most abundant species, representing between 27% 21% captured, respectively, followed by Prionace glauca (19%) Oxynotus centrina (13%). Single or sporadic...
Plastic pollution and the resulting entanglement of marine wildlife is a global growing issue. However, there significant lack knowledge about impacts litter on biodiversity in Morocco. Based digital media search, we evaluated negative Moroccan biodiversity. The study demonstrated that sixty-eight individuals from 18 species were affected by litter. Cetaceans are most entanglements, followed sea turtles, fish, seabirds elasmobranchs. Most reported entanglements discarded or lost fishing...
AbstractThis study examines the effect of common bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus on purse-seine fishery for small pelagic fishes in Mediterranean Sea and economic consequences thereof. The investigation focused fleet registered at port Al Hoceima, Morocco, used information collected from on-board observations a semi-structured questionnaire with fishermen ship-owners. A total 121 were captured as bycatch during 48 fishing trips, mortality rate 0.23 per trip. In terms damage to gear,...
The port of Al Hoceima is located on the Mediterranean coast about 150 km west Nador city, western extremity Al-Hoceima Bay, and only gateway in North-Central region. characterized by coastal artisanal fishing. objectives this study were knowledge main fleets that exist region, to identify different fishing gears used inventory, resources caught landed Hoceima. A detailed survey (concerning vessels their characteristics related method catches) was analyzed during period between Avril...
Coastal fishing in the Moroccan Mediterranean plays a key role industry's economy. This activity is an important source of jobs and income for many coastal communities Al Hoceima region north-western Mediterranean. study aims to investigate state socio-economic knowledge fishermen fleet Hoceima, using diagnosis based on analysis indicators. The data were obtained by structured questionnaire with 90 fishermen, 30 captains, 15 ship owners. collected revealed, from social level, high rate...
Indeed, the fishing sector is main engine of Morocco's economy with catches reaching more than one million tons, a GDP 2 to 3%, and nearly 700,000 direct indirect jobs generated (MPM.2018).For rational exploitation these resources, assessments their stocks determination state are essential.
Globally, fishing activity

The investigated reservoirs of fish farms, 76 taxonomic units zooplankton, represented by colloquials (Rotatoria) and crustaceans (Crustacea), have been identified.As part the dominant complex, representatives genera Asplanchna, Brachionus (Rotatoria), Ceriodaphnia, Daphnia (Cladocera), Acanthocyclops, Eudiaptomus (Copepoda) prevailed.During May to September, indicators zooplankton development were 118.73-348.37 thousand ind./m 3 -by number 6.08-9.95g/m 3by biomass.The basis phytoplankton...
