Optimized protocol and template for monitoring floating macrolitter by scientific observers onboard research vessels

In 2007 the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) established for the first time the group of Apex Predators (marine mammals, seabirds and turtles) observers during a campaign to evaluate pelagic fisheries in the Bay of Biscay (PELACUS 07). This campaign was performed onboard the RV Thalassa, wher...
