L'importance du nombre de poissons morts (120) doit être établie en fonction du nombre total d'animaux sur les lieux pour le volet sur la résistance aux maladies (3 bassins x 120 poissons par bassin = 360 poissons) : 120 sur 360 poissons représentent un pourcentage de mortalité de 30 %. La base de référence du risque de mortalité a été fixée à 8 % dans ce volet[,] et l'incident doit donc être déclaré puisque la mortalité est 20 % au-dessus du risque approuvé (déclarable si le pourcentage de mortalité est égal ou supérieur à 28 %). 2, record 1, French, - pourcentage%20de%20mortalit%C3%A9

In order to reduce exploitation rates, measures to decrease fishing effort by 12. 5 [percent] were proposed to the industry. If the effort reduction is not counterbalanced by changes in gear(size of traps) and in fishing practices(increase in the number of hauls per day), this reduction could help reduce fishing mortality. 2, record 3, English, - fishing%20effort%20reduction

Si la réduction de l'effort n'est pas contrebalancée par des changements apportés aux caractéristiques (grosseur ou type de casiers) des engins et aux pratiques de pêche (augmentation du nombre de levées par jour), cette réduction permettrait effectivement de diminuer la mortalité de la pêche. 2, record 3, French, - r%C3%A9duction%20de%20l%27effort%20de%20p%C3%AAche

A mathematical expression of the rate of deaths of fish due to fishing. 5, record 6, English, - fishing%20mortality%20rate
Record number: 6, Textual support number: 1 CONT
In its simplest form, the fishing mortality rate is the rate at which fish are removed from the stock by harvesting. Think of fish stock as money in an interest-bearing bank account. If the interest is five percent per year, the bank account balance will grow as long as you withdraw less than five percent per year. If you withdraw more than five percent per year, the bank principal will decrease.... The interest rate in this example is equivalent to the stock's growth rate. The withdrawal rate is equivalent to the fishing mortality rate. Biological reference points based on fishing mortality help managers keep the withdrawal rate at a level that will ensure the long-term production or stability of the stock. 6, record 6, English, - fishing%20mortality%20rate
