Escape, discard, and landing probability in multispecies Mediterranean bottom-trawl fishery [PDF]
ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2021 AbstractCommercial bycatch species and their exploitation pattern in the Mediterranean trawl fishery are little studied. The present work examines the overall size-selection pattern, both regarding the trawl in the sea and the fisher onboard the vessel, for seven commercial bycatch species using different codends.

Human impacts on fisheries across the land–sea interface [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015 A long-held paradigm is that estuaries are important to the welfare of estuarine-dependent coastal fisheries, providing spawning areas, suitable salinity gradients for development, protection from predators, and food. Many publications link the beneficial nature of estuaries with fisheries production and decry human activities that modify habitat, and ...
