The selectivity of gillnets for keeled mullet in the Suez Lagoon area and some biological studies on them, as well as measuring the extent of the impact of changes in the different meshes sizes of gillnets on keeled mullet catches and, through this, determining the best mesh size to maintain the sustainability of catches within the Suez Lagoon area.

The committee recommended awarding the researcher a master's degree in Fisheries Technology from the Department of Fisheries.

Good luck to the researcher🌻
