Quantifying the Physical Impact of Bottom Trawling Based on High-Resolution Bathymetric Data

Quantifying the Physical Impact of Bottom Trawling Based on High-Resolution Bathymetric Data

Bottom trawling is one of the most significant anthropogenic pressures on physical seafloor integrity. The objective classification of physical impact is important to monitor ongoing fishing activities and to assess the regeneration of seafloor integrity in Marine Protected Areas. We use high-resolu...
