Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Robust estimates of the magnitude of protected species bycatch are essential for effective fisheries management and marine conservation. Existing bycatch estimation methods typically struggle to accurately and precisely estimate the bycatch of rare species as a result of the statistical assumptions necessary to overcome infrequent encounters ...

Integrating migratory connectivity data into the conservation of Australian sharks and rays
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding migratory connectivity is important for conserving highly mobile marine species facing escalating threats. Establishing baseline information on migratory connectivity is necessary for identifying species and regions requiring transboundary cooperation for their conservation.

Marine reserves solve an important bycatch problem in fisheries [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017 Significance Bycatch, where one species is unintentionally caught in pursuit of another species, is one of the most ubiquitous and crippling challenges in global fisheries. The usual solution is to dramatically reduce take of the target species to allow “weak stock” persistence.

Annual report on the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 812/2004 - 2012 [PDF]
, 2011 This report contains the results of the ongoing monitoring programme on the incidental bycatch of cetaceans in Dutch pelagic fisheries in 2010. EU Council Regulation 812/2004 requires observer coverage in ICES areas VI, VII and VIII in the period 1 ...

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.This demonstrates the gap between existing top‐down laws and strategies (Current Approach) and the barriers fishers face while proposing an alternative pathway (Proposed Approach) based on collaboration, capacity building, and addressing socio‐economic factors.

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

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

Using value of information in recovery planning for imperiled species
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Conservation planning often employs predictive models to prioritize alternative actions, but uncertainty related to lack of data or uncertainty in the influence of global change may erode confidence in predictions. Managers must choose between investing time and money to gather more information, or implementing conservation actions immediately, despite
