Norfish: Dutch-Icelandic cod fishery, 1520-1852 ...

NorFish is a European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant led by Prof Poul Holm in Trinity College Dublin, focuses on the premise that a 16th century shift in marine fish pricing and supply in conjunction with the Little Ice Age and lowering of sea temperatures not only rise to the North Atlantic Fish Revolution but also forms one of the first documented examples of the disrupting effects of globalisation and climate change. The project examines the role of the Fish Revolution for a range of inter-related aspects of North Atlantic history, with NorFish’s interdisciplinary team drawing on arc... Mehr ...

The project examines the role of the Fish Revolution for a range of inter-related aspects of North Atlantic history, with NorFish’s interdisciplinary team drawing on archaeology, history, cartography, geography, and ecology to develop interpretative frameworks that synthesise a broad spectrum of source data to assess the overall objective of the project. NorFish’s interdisciplinary team draws on archaeology, history, cartography, geography, and ecology to assess the objectives of the project ... : The first quantitative evidence of Dutch cod fishing off the Icelandic coast is reported in 1655; Captain Jelle Alberts, from Vlieland in Friesland (Frisia) a province of the Netherlands, returned from Icelandic waters after 11 weeks of fishing with a cargo of salted cod. The condition of sale of these sated cod was that each specimen had to measure at least 22 inches to the tail (56cm) or else it would only count as half a cod (two would be counted as one). ...
