Mapping the bycatch seascape: multispecies and multi‐scale spatial patterns of fisheries bycatch

Ecological Applications, 2009
Fisheries bycatch is a worldwide conservation issue. Despite a growing awareness of bycatch problems in particular ocean regions, there have been few efforts to identify spatial patterns in bycatch events. Furthermore, many studies of fisheries bycatch have been myopic, focusing on a single species or a single region.

MODELING SPATIAL PATTERNS IN FISHERIES BYCATCH: IMPROVING BYCATCH MAPS TO AID FISHERIES MANAGEMENT

Ecological Applications, 2008
Fisheries bycatch, or incidental take, of large vertebrates such as sea turtles, seabirds, and marine mammals, is a pressing conservation and fisheries management issue. Identifying spatial patterns of bycatch is an important element in managing and mitigating bycatch occurrences. Because bycatch of these taxa involves rare events and fishing effort is

Sustainability of fishery bycatch: a process for assessing highly diverse and numerous bycatch

Environmental Conservation, 2001
In tropical prawn (shrimp) trawl fisheries it is daunting to assess the sustainability of bycatch species because they are diverse and there is little historical and biological information for quantitative stock assessments. We developed a process to examine the likely impact of prawn trawling on the sustainability of bycatch species and applied this ...

Discards and bycatch: A review of wasted fishing

2023
Bycatch and discards are a significant issue for global fisheries, with discards considered unnecessary mortality and wasted fishing. Discards have declined due to more selective gear and changes in regulations, but data on discard rates and species remains challenging to collect.
