Estimating the impact of bycatch and calculating bycatch limits to achieve conservation objectives as applied to harbour porpoise in the North Sea [PDF]
, 2009 Incidental catch, or bycatch, of harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) in fishing operations is an international conservation issue. The main objective of this thesis was to develop methods for determining the impact of bycatch on the state and dynamics ...

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020 Fisheries bycatch represents a major anthropogenic threat to marine megafauna worldwide. To identify populations at risk, it is essential to estimate the total number of individuals removed from a population as bycatch.

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...

Reducing cod bycatch in flatfish fisheries
Ocean & Coastal Management, 2022 Management measures to facilitate the recovery of fish stocks can lead to shifts in traditional fishing patterns and target species. In the Baltic Sea, drastic reductions in catch quota for cod (Gadus morhua) force mixed demersal trawl fisheries to avoid cod bycatch and focus on flatfish species.

High contrast panels and lights do not reduce bird bycatch in Baltic Sea gillnet fisheries
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019 Bycatch is a cause of mortality among marine mammals, sea turtles, fish and birds. For some species this mortality may be sufficient to cause population declines.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Can deep learning reliably detect a threatened species in passive acoustic monitoring with few annotations? Across 52 sites and 600 recording days, we compared two deep learning recognizers with the traditional machine learning Kaleidoscope for detecting African manatee vocalizations.

Addressing fisheries bycatch in a changing world [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 Fisheries bycatch is a threat to species of marine megafauna across the world’s oceans. Work over the past several decades has greatly advanced our understanding of the species affected, the magnitude and the spatial extent of bycatch. In the same time period, there have been substantial advances in the development of mitigation strategies and best ...
