Balancing ecology, economy and culture in fisheries policy: Participatory research in the Western Mediterranean demersal fisheries management plan.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2021
Fishing communities in the Mediterranean Sea face challenges in dealing with Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) ecosystem-based management measures aimed at reducing fishing effort and implementing partial closures of fisheries.

Spatial Management Units as an Ecosystem-Based Approach for Managing Bottom-Towed Fisheries in the Central Mediterranean Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Marine ecosystems are being continually impacted by human activities and, among these, fisheries have been one of the most damaging. Fisheries modify the structure and functioning of food-webs through biomass removal and physical damage to the seabed ...

Modelling discard ogives from Irish demersal fisheries [PDF]

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2006
Abstract Annual discard ogives were estimated using generalized additive models (GAMs) for four demersal fish species: whiting, haddock, megrim, and plaice. The analysis was based on data collected on board commercial vessels and at Irish fishing ports from 1995 to 2003.

Identifying Persistent Hot Spot Areas of Undersized Fish and Crustaceans in Southern European Waters: Implication for Fishery Management Under the Discard Ban Regulation

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The recent establishment of the “landing obligation” under the reformed EU Common Fishery Policy has the twofold objective of reducing the excessive practice of discarding unwanted catch at sea and encouraging more selective and sustainable fisheries ...

Stock dynamics of the brushtooth lizardfish Saurida undosquamis (Richardson, 1848) from a tropical multispecies fishery in the southeastern Arabian Sea

Aquatic Living Resources, 2019
The brushtooth lizardfish Saurida undosquamis (Richardson, 1848) is a high trophic level benthic predator and is one among the most exploited demersal finfish species from eastern Arabian Sea by Indian trawlers.

Slow sink rate in floated-demersal longline and implications for seabird bycatch risk.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Bycatch of birds in longline fisheries is a global conservation issue, with between 160,000-320,000 seabirds killed each year, primarily through being caught and drowned as they attempt to snatch baits off hooks as they are set.

Potential for codends with shortened lastridge ropes to replace mandated selection devices in demersal trawl fisheries

Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2021
In many trawl fisheries, codend size selectivity is supplemented by adding selection devices to the gear. In the Barents Sea gadoid fishery, combining diamond mesh codends with sorting grids is compulsory.
