ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY OF ALTERNATIVE BYCATCH-REDUCTION POLICIES AND BYCATCH REDUCTION DEVICES [PDF]
This paper examines the ability of two new policies to reduce bycatch of red snapper by the shrimp fishery in the Gulf of Mexico: Fractional License and Fractional Gear Programs, as proposed by Townsend, reduce bycatch by reducing the effort levels of ...

Discards in fisheries - a summary of three decades of research at IMARES and LEI [PDF]
Discards and the possible ecological and economic effects of discarding are a hot topic in discussions about sustainable fisheries. The perception of the effects of discarding differs between parties and it is influenced by the ecosystem functioning and ...

A MODEL OF BYCATCH INVOLVING A PASSIVE USE STOCK [PDF]
We develop a simple extension of the theory of multispecies fisheries management to analyze a problem where one fish or animal stock has no commercial market but instead is valued passively.

Development of a bycatch reduction device (BRD) for shrimp beam trawl using flexible materials [PDF]
This study aimed to design a bycatch reduction device (BRD) for shrimp beam trawl, which is manufactured by flexible materials to reduce bycatch for the gear in the South Sea of Korea. The model test was carried out to understand the shape of the gear in

Assessment of demersal trawl fisheries: evaluation of three type of bycatch reduction device
In recent years, global concern over the impacts of fishing activity on non-target species termed as “by-catch” has been increasing. Most of conventional shrimp trawls are poorly selective so they retain large quantities of bycatch (Saila 1983). The main

Reducing bycatch in the Queensland scallop fishery
Discusses a research charter undertaken by the Queensland Department of Primary Industries which showed that bycatch in the state's scallop fishery can be reduced by 78% as a result of using bycatch reduction devices (BRD). Absence of adverse reaction in
