Water quality - Sampling of fish with electricity

This European Standard provides procedures to be used by trained persons in evaluating fish communities in streams, rivers and littoral areas for the purpose of classification of ecological status. These procedures allow standardisation of sampling methods for descriptions of fish communities. The use of standardised methods is a critical requirement for the comparability of results.
This European Standard describes an electric fishing method to be used when catching fish for the purpose of characterising species richness, composition, abundance and age structure of a given fish community. Sampling-related issues include obtaining permissions, concerns about endangered species, protective measures of importance for the user of the sampling apparatus and co-ordination of activities with other sampling programmes.
The processing of samples covers taxonomic identification, counting, measurement of biologic parameters (length, weight etc.), and examination of fish for external anomalies.

Qualité de l'eau - Echantillonnage des poissons à l'électricité

La présente Norme Européenne décrit des modes opératoires d'échantillonnage et de pêche électrique destinés à être appliqués par un personnel formé à l'évaluation des populations de poissons dans les cours d'eau, les rivières et les zones littorales à des fins de classification de l'état écologique. Ces modes opératoires permettent de normaliser les méthodes d'échantillonnage pour décrire les peuplements de poissons. L'emploi de méthodes normalisées est une exigence cruciale pour la comparabilité des résultats.
La présente Norme Européenne décrit une méthode de pêche électrique destinée à être utilisée pour capturer des poissons dans le but de caractériser la composition, l'abondance et la structure d'âges d'un peuplement de poissons donné. Les problèmes liés à l'échantillonnage incluent l'obtention des autorisations nécessaires, les mesures spéciales concernant les espèces menacées, la protection physique de l'utilisateur de l'appareillage d'échantillonnage et la coordination des activités avec les autres programmes d'échantillonnage.
Le traitement des échantillons couvre l'identification taxonomique, le dénombrement, le mesurage des paramètres biologiques (taille, poids, etc.) et l'examen des poissons pour la recherche d'anomalies externes.
