The MEESO project has produced an e-learning webinar on quantification of mesopelagic resources.

This MEESO webinar under MEESO work package 2 and 8 goes into details of central issues of quantifying and capturing mesopelagic resources. The focus is on elements needed to minimize bias in size and biomass distributions, which has important ramifications also for acoustic mapping of the mesopelagic zone.
