Scientific series

Laboratory Leaflets

A long-standing series aimed at the fishing industry, fisheries managers, junior technicians and interested laypersons rather than a scientific readership. Covers both fisheries and environmental aspects.

Data reports

A series especially designed for the speedy production of computer-derived data, generally with minimal text or interpretation. Both fisheries and environmental subjects are covered.

Technical reports

Long-standing series, mostly of a more technical nature, detailing scientific procedures, results and interpretation of both fisheries and environmental topics.

Aquatic environment reports

The are two series of aquatic environment reports:
Science Series Aquatic Environment Protection: Analytical Methods: A comparatively new series which complements the Aquatic Environment Monitoring Reports by providing detailed descriptions of the laboratory procedures used in the preparation and analysis of environmental materials.
Science Series Aquatic Environment Monitoring Reports: A series specifically for commentary on data collected under long-term programmes. Normally issued on an annual basis for the major programmes, but reports covering one-off projects are also produced.

cSAC review series
