Acoustic deterrence to facilitate the conservation of pantropical spotted dolphins (Stenella attenuata) in the Western Pacific Ocean

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Commercial fishing constitutes an important food source but induces undesirable bycatch on animals worldwide. This study extends bycatch research geographically to the Western Pacific Ocean, filling a knowledge gap regarding bycatch and mitigation ...

Estimating Cetacean Bycatch From Non-representative Samples (I): A Simulation Study With Regularized Multilevel Regression and Post-stratification

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Bycatch, the non-intentional capture or killing of non-target species in commercial or recreational fisheries, is a world wide threat to protected, endangered or threatened species (PETS) of marine megafauna.

An assessment of dolphin behaviour and bycatch mitigation techniques in the Pilbara Fish Trawl Fishery, Western Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The incidental capture of unwanted species along with target species is a common and wasteful aspect of many fisheries. Trawl fisheries in particular have a high rate of incidental capture, or bycatch, due to the low selectivity of their nets.

A Framework to Predict and Mitigate Bycatch for Vulnerable Marine Species

open access: yes, 2021
Bycatch is a pressing concern impeding the sustainability of fisheries. Yet, bycatch is often not well mitigated due to incomplete monitoring of at-sea.

Bycatch and strandings programs as ecological indicators for data-limited cetaceans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
An integrated approach of using strandings and bycatch data may provide an indicator of long-term trends for data-limited cetaceans. Strandings programs can give a faithful representation of the species composition of cetacean assemblages, while ...

Fisher-based assessments of sea turtle bycatch in small-scale fisheries in Pacific Mexico

open access: yesEndangered Species Research
Reducing bycatch of sea turtles and other protected species in artisanal fisheries depends on first understanding where, how, and to what extent bycatch is occurring. We implemented rapid bycatch assessments (RBAs)—i.e.

eric-ward/bycatch: Initial release 2017

open access: yes, 2017
<p>This release changes the bycatch expansion from just expanding the mean, to expanding with an observation model (Poisson). This release also includes the option for time - varying bycatch rates, modeled as an autoregressive process.</p ...

Strategic Joint Production Under Common-Pool Output Quotas: The Case of Fisheries Bycatch [PDF]

open access: yes
We develop a simple game-theoretic model to explain the production decisions of firms when the production of a marketed good is complementary with the output of an associated good for which no market is available and the output of both goods is regulated
