Acoustic telemetry data of highly vulnerable and mobile species tagged during the ResMed project
Acronym
ResMed
Abstract in English

Using combined techniques of acoustic telemetry, visual and video censuses, and with the support of citizen science, ResMed aims to provide new knowledge about the ecology of several species of heritage and commercial interest, essential habitats throughout their life cycle (feeding, reproduction and breeding), their ability to move (distances, used habitats and periods), and the connectivity of populations between different marine protected areas. RESMED will also evaluate the effectiveness of the areaʼs marine reserve network and fisheries management to contribute to the development of more sustainable fishing.

The target species of the ResMed project are easily identifiable, mobile and vulnerable to fishing. 26 species were tagged, among them we can find species such as the common snapper (Spondyliosoma cantharus), the sea bream (Sparus aurata), the imperial seabream (Diplodus cervinus), the common dentex (Dentex dentex), the sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax), the grouper (Epinephelus marginartus), the barracuda (Sphyraena viridensis), the scorpionfish (Scorpaena scrofa) and the lobster (Palinurus elephas).

The project counts on the participation of the University of Barcelona and the University of Perpignan, in collaboration with the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries and the Department of Territory and Sustainability of the Catalan Government, the natural park of cap de Creus, the natural park of Montgrí, illes Medes and baix Ter, the French Agency for Biodiversity, the natural marine park of León, and the marine reserve of Cervera-Banyuls, stated as partners of the project. In addition, the confreries of fishermen of Girona take part in the project too, as well as the Catalan Federation of Underwater Activities (FECDAS), diving clubs -such as the Diving Club of Biology (CIB) of the UB- and the association of diving centers of Costa Brava.
