SHIRE Historical reconstruction of the Wadden Sea fish assemblage: Swimway historical reference - Project report

The final report of the project "Systematic review for historical reconstruction of the Wadden Sea fish assemblage – Swimway historical reference" (SHIRE), funded by the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV) contains results of using the PRISMA approach for conducting a systematic review. The present study aimed to fill in this gap by providing a database on fish assemblages in the Wadden Sea between 1500-1970. In total 4240 individual records were screened of which 109 were eventually included in the synthesis. A team of experts and students from DTU Aqua (Denmark), the University of Kiel (Germany), Groningen University (Netherlands) and the Common Wadden Sea Secretariat (CWSS) worked on the reconstruction of the historical fish assemblage of the Wadden Sea in the project.
