Satellite‐Based Fishing Fleet Tracking: A New Foundation for Fisheries Science and Management

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1134-1150, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Satellite‐based vessel‐tracking technologies have ushered in a new era for monitoring fishing activity at scale. By combining artificial intelligence (AI) methods with remotely‐sensed data, researchers can now detect, classify and analyse fishing behaviour across vast and previously unobservable ocean regions.

Management Participants Perceive That Structural Barriers, Not Information Needs, Most Impede Adaptation in U.S. Fisheries Management

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1151-1165, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Fisheries are facing increasingly frequent and severe climate change‐related stressors such as marine heatwaves, harmful algal blooms, and species distribution shifts. Many fisheries management bodies have been working to increase the capacity of their regulatory systems to adapt to these new conditions, but progress has been slow and ...

Assessment of Small‐Meshed Gillnets for Sustainable Fisheries in the Chobe River, Namibia

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Small‐meshed gillnets are restricted by the regulatory framework of the Namibian Inland Fisheries Act of 2003. This is mainly because smaller meshed nets are presumably selective towards juveniles of the large‐growing cichlid species. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the impacts of smaller meshed gillnets (<73 mm) on the fish stocks ...

Inland Fishing Gear: Diversity, Classification, Management and Conservation Challenges

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This review highlights the diversity of fishing gear used in inland fisheries, particularly in small‐scale and artisanal fisheries worldwide. It focuses on gear regulation and management, emphasizing environmental impacts and associated conservation challenges, particularly the emerging problem of plastic pollution from fishing in aquatic ...

The Complete Mitochondrial Genome and Phylogenetic Position of the Pacific Spiny Dogfish Squalus suckleyi (Squaliformes: Squalidae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
The Pacific spiny dogfish (Squalus suckleyi) is a North Pacific shark of conservation consern that until now lacked a complete mitochondrial genome. We report its first mitogenome (16,738 bp; 37 genes), assembled from PacBio HiFi reads and recover it as sister to S.

Pooled and Individual Bycatch Quotas: Exploring Tradeoffs Between Observer Coverage Levels, Bycatch Frequency, Pool Size, and the Precision of Bycatch Estimates

, 2000
The North Pacific Ocean is highly productive, hosting many of the world's largest groundfish populations and supporting a thriving fishing industry. Numerous regulations have been implemented to control the incidental take of non-target bycatch. Individual and Pooled Bycatch Quotas have recently been proposed as instruments that could further encourage

Evidence of a Potential Nursery Area for the Great Hammerhead Shark, Sphyrna mokarran, in the Largest Coral Reef System of the Southwestern Atlantic

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We present evidence suggesting that the Abrolhos Bank functions as key habitat for early life stages of Sphyrna mokarran. Kernel density estimation revealed spatially structured aggregations, with neonates and young‐of‐the‐year concentrated in shallow reef‐associated areas. Temporal variation in catch per unit effort (CPUE) indicated recruitment pulses

Seasonal Forecasts of pH and Aragonite Saturation for the Bering Sea Shelf

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The number of numerical model forecasts of ocean environmental conditions has greatly expanded in recent years, including biogeochemical variables. Forecasts can provide marine resource managers with advance warning of extreme events such as heatwaves and hypoxia, though forecast products are scarcer in high‐latitude environments.

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.
