Are these data the same as on the old Sea Around Us site?
No, the catch data presented previously by the Sea Around Us were essentially landings data reported to FAO by member countries, from 1950 to 2006. What is offered now are ‘reconstructed’ catch data, by sector, catch type and reporting status, for 1950 to most recent year of Sea Around Us’ processed data. ‘Reconstructed’ data combine officially reported data with best estimates of all unreported catches, both landed and discarded.
