Effects of a Large Fishing Closure on Benthic Communitites in the Western Gulf of Maine: Recovery from the Effects of Gillnets and Otter Trawls [PDF]
The recovery of benthic communities inside the western Gulf of Maine fishing closure area was evaluated by comparing invertebrate assemblages at sites inside and outside of the closure four to six years after the closure was established.

Escapement of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) and saithe (Pollachius virens) beneath a commercial bottom trawl, rigged with a 60 cm diameter rockhopper gear, was studied in the Barents Sea. The study was performed off the coast of north Norway in March/April 2003.

Benthic Indicators for Monitoring Bottom‐Trawl Fishing Impacts [PDF]
There is increasing interest in developing indicators to assess the state of benthic communities in shelf seas primarily affected by bottom trawling. Yet, many indicators have been developed in specific geographic regions making it difficult to determine their broader applicability.

ABSTRACT Oceanographic and ecological conditions can be used to inform forecasts and decision‐making for marine resources, but the dominant drivers of recruitment variability remain poorly understood for many fish stocks. We developed a conceptual life‐history model of the oceanographic and ecological variables that influence the recruitment of ...
