Every animal matters! Evaluating the selectivity of a Mediterranean bottom trawl fishery from a species community perspective. [PDF]
Bottom trawl fisheries often catch several species simultaneously. However, most studies addressing the catch performance and selectivity of a specific trawl focus on a few commercially important or most vulnerable species requiring management measures ...

A dataset from bottom trawl survey around Taiwan [PDF]
Bottom trawl fishery is one of the most important coastal fisheries in Taiwan both in production and economic values. However, its annual production started to decline due to overfishing since the 1980s.

Evaluation of New Zealand's high-seas bottom trawl closures using predictive habitat models and quantitative risk assessment. [PDF]
United Nations General Assembly Resolution 61/105 on sustainable fisheries (UNGA 2007) establishes three difficult questions for participants in high-seas bottom fisheries to answer: 1) Where are vulnerable marine systems (VMEs) likely to occur?; 2) What

Unraveling Fish Community Diversity and Structure in the Yellow Sea: Evidence from Environmental DNA Metabarcoding and Bottom Trawling [PDF]
The use of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to analyze fish species diversity across different aquatic ecosystems is well documented. Nonetheless, there is a gap in validating eDNA metabarcoding studies on the diversity and structure of fish ...

The demersal fish composition and catch per unit effort of mini bottom trawl at the coast of Demak Regency Central Java [PDF]
Demak is a coastal area on the North Coast of Java with a large enough potential for demersal fish resources. This research aimed to determine the composition, the length and weight distribution, and catch per unit effort (CPUE) of demersal fish caught ...

Effect of Extension Piece Design on Catch Patterns in a Mediterranean Bottom Trawl Fishery
The catch composition of bottom trawls is commonly refined and improved through changes in codend design. Measures like reducing the number of meshes in codend circumference or turning diamond netting by 90 degrees are well known to improve the size ...

Quantifying the Physical Impact of Bottom Trawling Based on High-Resolution Bathymetric Data
Bottom trawling is one of the most significant anthropogenic pressures on physical seafloor integrity. The objective classification of physical impact is important to monitor ongoing fishing activities and to assess the regeneration of seafloor integrity
