Type: Dataset
title in English: European Crustacean Fisheries Metadatabase
Description in English: The data themes have been classified into 2 types:

Location specific data: parameters that were defined at a specific location and time e.g. fishing control measures
Abstract in English: Metadata on exploited marine crustaceans in Europe is held in many different institutes in different formats (databases, spreadsheets, internal reports and published scientific papers). This database provides a facility to store metadata relating to these many sources of information. The ECFM web site allows registered users to enter data held at their specific institute and allows public access to the data in the database. The database is maintained under the EDFAM project. The metadata in the database is summary data derived from raw data, contact details for raw data and information on management of fisheries and fisheries statistics. The metadata is divided into a number of themes, described below, relating to the biology and fisheries for crustaceans in Europe.
