Gear Type: Method used to capture the target species.
Ocean Area: Location of fishing activity by FAO Major Fishing Area.
MSC UoC Number: Unique identifier used only by this website to assist users in seeing the same Units of Assessment/Units of Certification across different pages and tables.
Species: Those species which have been assessed under Principle 1 of the MSC Principles and Criteria for Sustainable Fishing for an individual fishery. Presented as 'Common name (scientific name)' throughout the site.
