National Marine Living Resources Data Centre
is a repository of information on exploited marine living resource of the
country and was established in 1982. The FRA Division is managing this Data Centre.
|
|
Developed statistical database on a large number
of species of pelagic and demersal fishes, crustaceans and molluscs over
space and time. |
|
Cuurently it holds the data on marine fish landings
in the analysed form since 1950 |
|
Software for analysis of marine fish landings
in India. |
|
Software for storage and retrieval of data |
|
The NMLRDC is responsible for acquiring, processing,
analysing and storing of the data and disseminating the information on the
marine living resources and the related aspects. |
Data Holdings |
|
Currently the quarterly data on
the fishery and biology of the resources investigated under the various
research projects during 1999-2000 are also maintained. |
|
Details of the price statistics from selected
centres. |
|
Inshore hydrography data collected off Cochin.
|
|
The processed data for 1985-2000 for each state,
districtwise, quarterwise, resourcewise and gearwise are also maintained and stored in magnetic tapes. |
|
The length frequency data used for stock assessment
of some of the commercially important resources and the biological samples
including the length, weight, sex and maturity status are also stored. |
|
Proposed to develop comprehensive data bases
for each of the commercially important marine fishery resources such as
oil sardine, mackerel, Bombayduck, shrimps etc. The database will include
the fishery, biology, distribution, stock assessment and bibliographic references
related to the resource concerned. |
|
Connectivity to all the Research Centres, Field
Centres of the CMFRI and all the Institutes dealing with fisheries for faster
information exchange. |
|
Bring out CDs on important resources. |
|
Preparation of fishery atlases. |
|
The NMLRDC which has been catering to the needs
of the research and development agencies for over the last decade is poised
to expand and extend its activities for a better management of data and
faster transmission of the information to the end users. |
