Marketing Strategy‐Based Fishers' Segmentation: The Key to Sustainable Fisheries Sector

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper attempts to empirically investigate potentially significant differences in perceptions regarding marketing strategies that could enhance economic and environmental sustainability in the sector based on the Structure—Conduct and Performance (SCP) methodological framework.

The Fish Funnel: A Trawl Modification to Reduce Fish Escapement [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
In the Gulf of Mexico there is a need to assess the potential of underutilized fish resource stocks before a commercial fishery develops. Standard sampling trawls used in the Gulf are ineffective for sampling the resource, so larger, high opening, bottom

Distribution of skates and sharks in the North Sea: 112 years of change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
How have North Sea skate and shark assemblages changed since the early 20th century when bottom trawling became widespread, whilst their environment became increasingly impacted by fishing, climate change, habitat degradation and other anthropogenic ...

Revisiting Maturity Data: Using Oocyte Diameter and Gonadosomatic Index to Retroactively Apply a New Maturity Scale to Greenland Halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) is a deep‐water flatfish which lives at temperatures of 1°C–4°C and produces large eggs (> 3 mm). The combination of low temperatures and large eggs has resulted in an unusual ovary development cycle, with vitellogenesis taking more than 1 year.

Little Evidence of Benthic Community Resilience to Bottom Trawling on Seamounts After 15 Years

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
The resilience and recovery dynamics of deep-sea habitats impacted by bottom trawling are poorly known. This paper reports on a fishing impact recovery comparison based on four towed camera surveys over a 15-year period (2001–2015) on a group of small ...

Decrease in water clarity of the southern and central North Sea during the 20th century [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Light in the marine environment is a key environmental variable coupling physics to marine biogeochemistry and ecology. Weak light penetration reduces light available for photosynthesis, changing energy fluxes through the marine food web.

Recompression Improves Release Success in Pollack (Pollachius pollachius): A Step Towards Assessing Post Release Mortality in a Recreational Fishery

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recreational fishery for pollack (Pollachius pollachius) in the northeast Atlantic is impacted by the species' high sensitivity to barotrauma. When captured at depth and brought to the surface, gas expansion within the peritoneal cavity can cause a variety of injuries and hinder release.

Post‐Release Survival of the Pelagic Stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea, Bonaparte, 1832) in French Longline Fisheries in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bycatch remains a critical challenge in global fisheries, even when using selective gears such as longlines. In the French longline fishery targeting Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the Gulf of Lion, the common pelagic stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea) is the primary bycatch species.

Reference points for assessing significant adverse impacts on deep sea vulnerable marine ecosystems

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Biodiversity loss due to human activities is a critical issue, particularly in the High Seas where bottom-contact fishing poses a significant threat to Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs).
