Sampling Methods

The fish was collected for sampling via bottom trawl and was conducted on four different days and locations. The mean travel speed was 3 and the trawling lasted for approximately 15 minutes. The benthic trawls was a Campelen 1800 bottom trawl (mesh size 10 mm), with trawl door spread 48-52 m and opening height 4.5-5.2 m.

Study Extent The study sites were Kongsfjorden (KB3), Magdalenafjorden (MAG), marginal ice zone (MIZ) and Billefjorden (BAB). The samples were taken with benthic trawls.

Method step description:

  1. Took benthic trawl. Sorted fish. Identified fish. Took subsamples. Dissecated and took measurements of the fish and organs.
