Skomer Marine Conservation Zone ( MCZ ) - Commercial Fishing Activities Occurring in and around Skomer
In 2015 Skomer Marine Nature Reserve changed designation to Skomer Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ). Skomer Marine Nature Reserve (MNR) was designated in 1990. The purpose of this data capture was to document the usage of the MNR and to create GIS maps of fishing effort and types of gear used in the reserve. The dataset contains records of all the fishing activity in the reserve. This includes potting effort, position and length of strings of pots, position of nets, number of boats using the area and number of dredgers in the St Brides area.
