The original data source are the IMAR annual reports: IMAR 2023 – Estatística das pescas de Cabo Verde. Evolução comparada dos desembarques da pesca artesanal e industrial por grupo de espécies de 1999-2023 da frota nacional que operam na Zona Económica Exclusiva (ZEE) de Cabo Verde. Instituto do Mar (Órgãos Delegados do Instituto Nacional de Estatística). For the same year, satellite based mean annual chlorophyll-a and sea surface temperatue values were extracted in the box 14.5-17°N and 22.5-25-5°W from annual Chl-a and SST products from Aqua-MODIS Level 3, with a spatial resolution of 4 km. Tuna and tuna-like species: Katsuwonus pelamid, Euthynnus alleteratus, Acanthocybium solandri, Thunnus obesus, Xiphias gladius, Coryphaena hippurus, Auxis rochei, Makaira nigricans, Thunnus albacares, Trichiurus lepturus, Makaira nigricans, Auxis sp., Auxis thazard, Istiophorus albicans Small pelagics: Selar crumenophthalmus, Trachinotus ovatus, Spicara melanurus, Selene dorsalis, Sardinella maderensis, Trachinotus goreensis, Sphyraena guachancho, Ablennes hians, Pomatomus saltatrix, Decapterus macarellus, Caranx crysos, Trachurus sp., Decapterus punctatus, Decapterus tabl, Scomber colias, Fodiador acutus, Hemiramphus brasiliensis -21.0 -21.0 22.0 22.0 -21.0 22.0 CVOO TENATSO http://ncasweb.leeds.ac.uk/capeverde/ 22.0 -21.0 Cape Verde Observation OBSE Cape Verde Ocean Observatory, formerly called TENATSO 140 CC-BY-4.0 Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Year of sampling Year sampl year Year sampl Chlorophyll a, annual mean Chl a (1-12) mg/m**3 chlorophyll a http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/CHEBI_18230 annual mean Density http://dbpedia.org/resource/Density Chl a (1-12) [mg/m**3] Sea surface temperature, annual mean SST (1-12) °C annual mean Temperature Θ http://dbpedia.org/resource/Temperature SST (1-12) [°C] Fish Fish # Abundance or Count tuna and tuna-like species Fish [#] (tuna and tuna-like species) Fish Fish # Abundance or Count small pelagics Fish [#] (small pelagics) Fish Fish # Abundance or Count all other species (demersals, sharks, crustaceans and others) Fish [#] (all other species (demersals,...)
