Russian-Norwegian cooperation in studying the ichthyofauna diversity of the Barents Sea and adjacent waters
Abstract
Barents Sea fish fauna has been studied a long time. The list of the Barents Sea fish and jawless fish includes 222 marine species and subspecies from 70 families of 27 orders of 5 classes for 2012. Since 2004, Russia and Norway have begun joint ecosystem surveys in the Barents Sea. Therefore, the data on distribution and abundance of commercial and non-commercial fish species in the Barents Sea and adjacent waters are collected annually. Cooperation between Russia and Norway has significantly increased the quantity and quality of information of fish diversity. The result of this cooperation was the Atlas of the Barents Sea Fishes, which showed distribution of all fish species found during the Barents Sea ecosystem survey. Assessment of abundance and biomass of commercial and non-commercial fish species was carried out, in addition to distribution of all fish species. Frequency of research allows to obtain inter-annual changes in the composition and structure of ichthyofauna in the Barents Sea, the important area for the Russian fishery. This information can be useful for a more detailed understanding Barents Sea ecosystem processes.
