    Unique Images Reveal Trawled Seabeds in the Gullmarsfjorden Conservation Area

    Deep Sea Reporter examines bottom trawling in marine protected areas – part one. The Swedish shrimp is both red-listed according to the Swedish Species Information Centre and has lost its MSC certification, yet trawling for shrimp continues even in marine protected areas. Deep Sea Reporter will examine the consequences of bottom trawling in two reportages. In part one, we dive into Gullmarsfjorden, Sweden's first marine protected area and the country's only threshold fjord with unique marine life.
