Soft-sediment benthic invertebrate communities in the coastal zone of Wales were modelled using a size-based model. Biomass, production and species richness were modelled as a function of local environmental conditions and bottom trawling disturbance. Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) contributed to a PhD at the School of Ocean Sciences, Bangor University entitled. The socio-economic and ecological implications of inshore fisheries management (project FC 73-02-740). The final part of this PhD includes an evaluation of the economic impacts of different types of fisheries management, including No Take Zones (NTZs) and areas where no fishing with towed gears is permitted. In order to base this economic analysis on realistic scenarios, data was needed concerning the locations which would most benefit from the protection described. The state of the benthic community was modelled using bottom trawl data up to 2003 and therefore represents the state in 2003. Predictions for a situation without trawling are not time specific. Values represent a yearly average. The model that was used was validated for the North Sea and explained 39% of the observed variation there. No data was available for validation of model predictions in the Irish Sea.

A size-based model of the response of soft-sediment benthic communities to trawling disturbance was used to predict the recovery time of these communities after trawling was used. The model contained 32 state variables, in two faunal groups (soft and hard bodied macrofauna). Growth of the population biomass in each body mass - organism type compartment was modelled by modifying Lotka-Volterra competition equations to give the population biomass flux for a compartment. The interaction between habitat type and trawling effects was modelled by including relationships between growth and mortality and the environment in the model. We included the effect of sediment type on trawling mortality, the effect of bed shear stress on population growth rate, the effects of chlorophyll a content of the sediment on carrying capacity and the effects of sediment erosion on mortality. Recovery in the model can only take place through growth of the local populations, as the model assumes that there is no migration between adjacent areas.
