Improving artisanal and semi-industrial fisheries data: a pilot experience on gillnet fishery in Abidjan

, 2017
Un GPS de bajo coste fue desarrollado por un estudiante en el marco de su formación como ingeniero para resolver un problema común de adquisición de datos que se les plantea a científicos, pescadores y gestores pesqueros en la mayoría de los países costeros de África. Se realizó una prueba piloto en una piragua individual artesanal durante cinco mareas

Using Photographs in Fishers’ Ecological Knowledge Research: A Review and Field Study on Small‐Scale Fishers’ Knowledge of Coastal Habitats in the Central Mediterranean Sea

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fishers interact daily with coastal environments, which generate a deep understanding of habitat characteristics, species associations and ecological change. Fishers’ ecological knowledge (FEK) is therefore a critical source of insight for marine science, offering observations that uniquely complement scientific data and, when incorporated ...

Inland Fishing Gear: Diversity, Classification, Management and Conservation Challenges

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This review highlights the diversity of fishing gear used in inland fisheries, particularly in small‐scale and artisanal fisheries worldwide. It focuses on gear regulation and management, emphasizing environmental impacts and associated conservation challenges, particularly the emerging problem of plastic pollution from fishing in aquatic ...

Energy Channel Coupling by Mid‐Trophic Level Fish Challenges the Landscape Theory for Food Web Architecture in a Large Tropical Lake Ecosystem

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Lake Turkana, a large tropical East African Great Lake, is an ideal model for examining how consumer fish species may mediate the coupling of fast and slow energy channels within food webs. We explored the ecological niche dynamics of five important Lake Turkana fish species across ontogeny and used a Bayesian isotope mixing model approach to identify ...

Evidence of a Potential Nursery Area for the Great Hammerhead Shark, Sphyrna mokarran, in the Largest Coral Reef System of the Southwestern Atlantic

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We present evidence suggesting that the Abrolhos Bank functions as key habitat for early life stages of Sphyrna mokarran. Kernel density estimation revealed spatially structured aggregations, with neonates and young‐of‐the‐year concentrated in shallow reef‐associated areas. Temporal variation in catch per unit effort (CPUE) indicated recruitment pulses

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Assessing differences among elasmobranch nurseries to aid conservation based on a genomics framework

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Elasmobranch nurseries often differ in environmental conditions, demographics, and use patterns. These differences affect the distribution of genetic variation among nurseries. However, conservation and management strategies often fail to account for such differences because they are difficult to characterize.

Fewer devil rays in the sea: Evidence of declining mobulid populations off India's coast

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Manta and devil rays are declining globally due to targeted and incidental capture, but species‐specific assessments are limited by unmonitored fisheries. Using morphometric, demographic, and fishery metrics, we show for the first time in India long‐term (2013–2023) declines in Mobula mobular, Mobula tarapacana, Mobula birostris, and Mobula thurstoni ...

Post‐Release Mortality of European Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) Discarded From Small‐Scale Estuarine Fishing

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 706-718, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Estuaries provide essential habitats for many fish species, but their confined and accessible nature may increase fish vulnerability to capture, and few empirical studies have quantified the value of restricting net fisheries in such areas.

Retention and discards by sole gillnet fishery in the Adriatic Sea.

, 2004
Observations onboard of vessels using gillnets for common sole (Solea vulgaris) in three mooring places of northern Adriatic were carriedout for two years for analysing the quali-quantitative composition of retention and discarding. Catch data showed that the retained part wasgreater than the discarded one.
