[Le mode d'exploitation est] l'effet combiné de la sélectivité des engins et de la disponibilité du poisson. Ce mode peut être altéré par des modifications des engins, par exemple une augmentation des dimensions du maillage ou des hameçons, ou un changement du taux de ponction des engins qui exploitent le poisson (par exemple, filet maillant, chalut, ligne et hameçon). Les modes peuvent aussi être modifiés par l'évolution des pratiques de pêche, telles que le fait d'éviter les zones où se trouvent les juvéniles. 2, record 1, French, - mode%20d%27exploitation
