Evaluating Success of Bycatch Mitigation Measures
, 2012 No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Designing effective bycatch mitigation programs requires an understanding of life histories of target and non‐target species, interactions of fish and fishing gear, effects of spatial and

Global Ecology and ConservationSeabird bycatch—particularly involving albatrosses and petrels—remains a significant conservation concern in pelagic longline fisheries. This study evaluated the effectiveness of three mitigation measures—bird-scaring lines (BSLs), weighted branch lines,

Reducing bycatch in gillnets: A sensory ecology perspective
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2015 Sensory capacities and perceptual challenges faced by gillnet bycatch taxa result from fundamental physiological limits on vision and constraints arising within underwater environments.

First detailed insights into harbour porpoise behaviour during a bycatch eventFirst detailed insights into harbour porpoise behaviour during a bycatch event [PDF]
Royal Society Open ScienceBycatch in static nets is the greatest cause of anthropogenic mortality in small cetaceans globally; however, the mechanism underlying how animals with highly sophisticated biosonars become entangled in nets is still poorly understood and represents a ...

Shortfin mako hot sets – Defining high bycatch conditions as a basis for bycatch mitigation
, 2021 Shortfin mako sharks, Isurus oxyrinchus, were listed under Appendix II of CITES in 2019 in part due to the results of the last stock assessment for the North Atlantic population, which determined the population is overfished and experiencing overfishing.

Examining the efficacy of a sanctuary to protect sharks in the Galapagos Marine Reserve
Conservation Science and PracticeIn 2016, Ecuador established a no‐take marine sanctuary in the northern portion of the Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR), ostensibly to protect sharks. Arguably because of this, experimental longlining was permitted in the rest of the reserve as part of a ...

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