Advances in Scale Assessment of Seabird Bycatch: A New Methodological Framework
Diversity, 2023 This paper presents a methodology for indirectly estimating the scale of seabird bycatch using existing data. The study focuses on five key species of ducks that winter in the Polish waters of the Baltic Sea and are highly susceptible to bycatch: Long ...

Marine mammal bycatch in gillnet and other entangling net fisheries, 1990 to 2011
Endangered Species Research, 2013 Since the 1970s the role of fishery bycatch as a factor reducing, or limiting the recovery of, marine mammal populations has been increasingly recognized.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Time-area closures are a valuable tool for mitigating fisheries bycatch. There is increasing recognition that dynamic closures, which have boundaries that vary across space and time, can be more effective than static closures at protecting mobile species

Catch, bycatch and discards of the Galapagos Marine Reserve small-scale handline fishery [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Fisheries bycatch is a significant marine conservation issue as valuable fish are wasted and protected species harmed with potential negative ecological and socio-economic consequences.

Addressing fisheries bycatch in a changing world
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 Fisheries bycatch is a threat to species of marine megafauna across the world’s oceans. Work over the past several decades has greatly advanced our understanding of the species affected, the magnitude and the spatial extent of bycatch.

Birds, 2022 Each year, billions of seabirds undertake migrations, connecting remote regions of the world, potentially synchronizing population fluctuations among distant areas. This connectedness has implications for the uncertainty calculations of the total seabird

Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Bycatch in gillnets from lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) fisheries is an important conservation issue in the north Atlantic, with up to 30 000 seabirds potentially killed each year. To date, no technical solutions exist to reduce the bycatch of seabirds in

Estimating common dolphin bycatch in the pole-and-line tuna fishery in the Azores [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Small-scale artisanal fisheries can have a significant negative impact in cetacean populations. Cetacean bycatch has been documented in the pole-and-line tuna fishery in the Azores with common dolphins being the species more frequently taken.
