Data Map

The fishery data forms contain references to fish caught, retained, discarded, released and lost, defined as follows:

Caught - fish landed on board and retained or discarded
Retained - fish landed on board and retained
Discarded - fish landed on board and discarded
Released - fish released alive including fish tagged and released and fish cut or shaken off line
Lost - fish lost at surface or dropped off line and not landed or released

DEADLINES FOR DATA REPORTING

TAC reports are to be submitted not later than two (2) working days after the end of the reporting period.
Fine-scale data forms and tagging protocol are to be submitted not later than the end of the month following the month of data collection.
Fine-scale data from krill fisheries are to be submitted not later than 1 April of the year following the end of the fishing season.
 

FISHERY CATCH AND EFFORT REPORTS

Fishery catch and effort reports (TAC data) are required for ‘real-time’ monitoring of the fisheries, and are submitted by Flag States at 5-day, 10-day or monthly periods throughout the fishing seasons, including periods when no catches are taken. The length of the reporting period depends on the type of fishery. Reports must be submitted via email ( ) or facsimile (+61-3-6224-8744).

CATCH AND EFFORT DATA

Catch and effort data (C data) are used to assess fish stocks, and develop and evaluate resource management strategies. These data are reported by Flag States on a haul-by-haul basis.

BIOLOGICAL DATA

Biological data (B2 data) provide information on the length composition of species caught. These data may be collected and submitted by Flag States. Alternatively, equivalent data may be collected and submitted by scientific observers (using observer data forms) if appropriate details are given in the bilateral arrangements (CCAMLR-XVI, paragraphs 8.23 and 9.12).

STATLANT DATA

STATLANT data are used to compile the official catch statistics from each Contracting Party. The deadline for submission of these data by CCAMLR season (1 December to 30 November of the following year) to the CCAMLR Secretariat is 31 January for inclusion in the CCAMLR Statistical Bulletin.
