Environment description

The impact of fishing on benthic habitats has previously been investigated however; a conclusive classification of potentially sensitive habitats per gear type does not exist. Currently only qualitative estimates of fishery impact using broad-scale habitat maps are possible. Here a sensitivity matrix using both fishing pressure and habitat sensitivity is employed to define pressure categories. A matrix-approach used to combine sensitivity and pressure is used to predict disturbance
