[EN] Data obtained over a period of twenty years from 214 bottom trawls, towed on a single warp at depths between 402 and 1993 m in the western Mediterranean (Algerian and Balearic basins) and eastern North Atlantic (Rockall Trough and Porcupine Seabight), allowed a standardised comparison of density, biomass composition and size-related structure for both the whole fish fauna and for the most common species found within the deep-sea fish assemblages. All four areas are characterised by distinctly different and well-documented oceanographic conditions, biogeographical affinities and fishing exploitation. The results showed clear differences between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean deep-sea fish fauna, not only in density, species richness and composition, but also in the structure of the biomass that constitutes these assemblages. These differences are discussed in relation to environmental conditions and fishing pattern, which have determined the adaptive responses of both individual species and the whole ecosystem. |

[ES] Los datos obtenidos a partir de 214 pescas de arrastre de fondo con
un sólo cable, realizadas a lo largo de un período de veinte años en el Mediterráneo occidental (cuencas argelina y balear) y
Atlántico nor-oriental (Rockall Trough y Porcupine Seabight), entre 402 y 1993 m de profundidad, han permitido una comparación
estandarizada de la densidad y de la composición y estructura de tamaños de la biomasa, tanto del conjunto de la
ictiofauna como de las principales especies comunes en estas comunidades ícticas de gran profundidad. Estas cuatro áreas
se caracterizan por diferencias, ampliamente documentadas, en sus condiciones oceanográficas, afinidades bio-geográficas
y de explotación pesquera. Los resultados han mostrado claras diferencias entre la ictiofauna profunda atlántica y mediterránea,
no sólo en términos de densidad, riqueza específica y composición, sino también en la estructura de la biomasa que
compone estas comunidades. Estas diferencias se discuten en relación con las condiciones medio-ambientales y de explotación
pesquera, las cuales han determinado las respuestas adaptativas, tanto de las especies individuales como del conjunto
del ecosistema. |

Support for
the analysis of the Atlantic data was obtained from
the following European Commission projects:
DGXIV Study Contract (92-10) “Biological parameters
of deep-water fish species”, MAST2-CT920033 and FAIR CT-95-655 “Developing deepwater
fisheries: data for their assessment and for
understanding their interaction with and impact on a
fragile environment”. This latter project also supported
the studies in the Algerian basin, while those
in the Balearic basin were funded by the Spanish
research programs BATIMAR (PAC86-008/ID821)
and ZONAP (PB90-0166). The analysis of the data
and the preparation of the paper was funded by a
Spanish Government Studies License and a bursary
from the Scottish Association for Marine Science. |
