PIKEPERCH

23.05.2018 – 30.04.2019

PIKEPERCH investigates the impact of catch-and-release angling on the reproductive output of nest-guarding pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) during spawning- and thus closed seasons....

In this project we are looking the anglers "into the head". Specifically, it is important to find out what criteria anglers use to select their waters and what preferences they have. Other sub-projects at AQUATAG ask similar questions about other water use groups. In the end, solutions are to be developed on how the increase in the leisure experience can be reconciled with the demands of nature and species protection on the waters.

Gravel Pit Lake

01.06.2016 – 31.05.2021

The project examines ecological and social importance of small, artificial lakes and simultaneously checks the possibilities how to increase, by implementing a good fishery practice, sustainability of those. The goal is to enhance and promote the biodiversity in small gravel pits lakes.

CFoodUW

ended 30.06.2019

CFOOD stands for Collaborative for Food from Our Oceans Data and is a term we use to describe the loose network of scientists who work together to better understand the science of fisheries sustainability. The CFOOD network has been building and maintaining a range of data bases on the status of fish stocks. Expert fisheries scientists from around the world help identify data for the data bases and provide quality control on the data and publications.

IMPRESS

01.01.2015 – 31.12.2018

IMPRESS is an Innovative Training Network (ITN) of the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions funded by the EU Research and Innovation Programme Horizon 2020.
The main objectives of IMPRESS are:
- To develop innovative production strategies for the conservation and management of endangered freshwater fish species
- To train a new generation of researchers with multi-disciplinary skills needed in the emerging field of reintroduction biology

Besatzfisch

01.01.2010 – 31.06.2016

The project researches the traditional practice of stocking fish in aquatic environments (=fishstocking) through fishing clubs from different scientific and social sciences perspectives.

SalmoInvade

01.01.2014 – 31.12.2016

The main objectives of SalmoInvade are:

1. to evaluate current releases of non-native salmonids in Europe and the social, economic and ecological mechanisms underlying their invasion potential
2. to investigate the ecological and evolutionary impacts of biological invasions by salmonids
3. to evaluate how salmonid invasions are perceived by the public and by key stakeholders
4. to provide integrated recommendations for policy and management of salmonid invasions

B-Types

01.01.2010 – 31.12.2014

The project researched the traditional practice of stocking fish in waterbodies (= fish stocking) through angling clubs from different natural- and social scientific perspectives

Technical Guidelines for Responsible Fisheries: Recreational Fisheries for the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations

2011

Report drafting and organization of expert consultation August, 5-6, 2011 Berlin.

These technical guidelines have been prepared by Robert Arlinghaus, Steven J. Cooke and Brett M. Johnson under the coordination of Raymon van Anrooy. Adherence to the guidelines and recommendations presented in the present document will enable policy-makers, managers and the entire recreational fisheries sector to orient recreational fisheries towards maintaining or achieving sustainability.

Adaptfish

2006 – 2009

Using recreational fisheries as our focus, the interdisciplinary and international team on the ADAPTFISH project is studying adaptations of exploited populations (fisheries resources), their exploiters (anglers) and the rules governing the interactions between fish and anglers (institutions).
