Modelling potential impacts of bottom trawl fisheries on soft sediment biogeochemistry in the North Sea†

Bottom trawling causes physical disturbance to sediments particularly in shelf areas. The disturbance due to trawling is most significant in deeper areas with softer sediments where levels of natural disturbance due to wave and tidal action are low. In heavily fished areas, trawls may impact the sam...
