Long-term morphological and sedimentological changes caused by bottom trawling on the northern Catalan continental shelf (NW Mediterranean)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Bottom trawling is a fishing method that involves towing of nets along the seafloor to catch demersal species. The dragging of trawling gears along the seafloor results in scraping and ploughing of the surficial sediments, leading to the formation of ...

Recovery Signals of Rhodoliths Beds since Bottom Trawling Ban in the SCI Menorca Channel (Western Mediterranean)

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
One of the objectives of the LIFE IP INTEMARES project is to assess the impact of bottom trawling on the vulnerable benthic habitats of the circalittoral bottoms of the Menorca Channel (western Mediterranean), designated a Site of Community Importance ...

Annotated checklist and biodiversity analysis of benthic fauna at Sylt Outer Reef and Borkum Reef Ground (North Sea) [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2022
Benthic fauna caught by ring dredge and 2 m beam trawl at the NATURA 2000 Sylt Outer Reef (SAR) and Borkum Reef Ground (BRG) sites in the North Sea are examined in relation to the intensity of mobile bottom-trawling fisheries.

Impacts of bycatch from beach seining: a case study of a shrimp fishery in Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
It is commonly assumed that beach seining (BS) is more sustainable than bottom trawling because it involves non-motorized operations and limited fishing power. However, no scientific evidence supports this assumption.

Recovery of tropical marine benthos after a trawl ban demonstrates linkage between abiotic and biotic changes

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Zhi Wang et al. compare benthic surveys before and after the bottom trawling ban in Hong Kong in 2012 and demonstrate abiotic changes in sediment as well as macrobenthos diversity.

Out of Sight, But Within Reach: A Global History of Bottom-Trawled Deep-Sea Fisheries From >400 m Depth

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Deep-sea fish species are targeted globally by bottom trawling. The species captured are often characterized by longevity, low fecundity and slow growth making them vulnerable to overfishing.

Trawling-Induced Sedimentary Dynamics in Submarine Canyons of the Gulf of Palermo (SW Mediterranean Sea)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Bottom trawling in submarine canyons can affect their sedimentary dynamics, but studies addressing this topic are still scarce. In the Gulf of Palermo (NW Sicily, SW Mediterranean Sea), bottom trawling occurs on the continental slope, but principally ...

An assessment of discarded catches from the bottom pair trawling fishery in southern Brazil

open access: yesMarine and Fishery Sciences, 2021
Onboard discards of a fraction of the catch can be considered one of the main issues related to bottom trawling fisheries. The magnitude and composition of the discards still need to be better understood.

DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING OF ALGORITHM FOR CALCULATION OF OPERATING PARAMETERS OF TRAWLING SYSTEMS

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2019
