The BATmap team was invited to present at the Clyde Fishermen’s Association all-hands meeting on in Glasgow.

The management of cod fisheries in Scotland has been a topic of significant importance and scrutiny in recent years.

One tool making waves in the fishing industry on the west coast of the US is NOAA's EcoCast—a pioneering platform that leverages environmental forecasting to revolutionize fisheries management.

BATmap’s successful implementation in the west of Scotland whitefish fishery led to interest in developing similar capacity for a more effective bycatch avoidance in the Nephrops fishery.

BATmap and other successful approaches to reducing bycatch are key to developing feasible and effective options for other fisheries.

The Scottish Fishermen’s Organisation (SFO) recently undertook a knowledge exchange initiative, sending a delegation to the Pacific Northwest in the United States.
