Influence of nearby environment on recreational bycatch of sea turtles at fishing piers in the eastern Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2023
Incidental bycatch of sea turtles from recreational fisheries is generally undocumented globally. At Gulf of Mexico fishing piers in the USA, bycatch is a source of injury and potential mortality of sea turtles.

Predicting bycatch hotspots in tropical tuna purse seine fisheries at the basin scale

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Fisheries observer programs represent the most reliable way to collect data on fisheries bycatch. However, their limited coverage leads to important data gaps that preclude bycatch mitigation at the basin scale.

Estimating common dolphin bycatch in the pole-and-line tuna fishery in the Azores [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 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.

Assessing the Uncertainty of Total Seabird Bycatch Estimates Synthesized from Multiple Sources with a Scenario Analysis from the Western and Central Pacific

open access: yesBirds, 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

Looming-eyes buoys fail to reduce seabird bycatch in the Icelandic lumpfish fishery: depth-based fishing restrictions are an alternative

open access: yesRoyal 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

Knowing the fishery to know the bycatch: bias-corrected estimates of harbour porpoise bycatch in gillnet fisheries [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2023
Incidental captures (bycatch) remain a key global conservation threat for cetaceans. Bycatch of harbour porpoise Phocoena phocoena in set gillnets is routinely monitored in European Union fisheries, but generally relies on data collected at low spatio-temporal resolution or over short periods.

Ecological implications of Rastrineobola argentea (omena) fishery: A rapid assessment of bycatch diversity at Dunga Beach, Lake Victoria, Kenya

open access: yes, 2022
Rastrineobola argentea (omena) is the second most important species in the fisheries of Lake Victoria after Nile perch. However, its fisheries have negative impacts on the ecology of the lake especially because of the high numbers and diversity of ...

How much do we know about seabird bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries? A simulation study on the potential bias caused by the usually unobserved portion of seabird bycatch.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Not much is known about the fleet level total seabird bycatch from pelagic longlines of United States vessels in the western North Atlantic or other fleets of the Atlantic or other oceans.
