Revealing the Global Longline Fleet with Satellite Radar

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Because many vessels use the Automatic Identification System (AIS) to broadcast GPS positions, recent advances in satellite technology have enabled us to map global fishing activity. Understanding of human activity at sea, however, is limited because an unknown number of vessels do not broadcast AIS.

Deep-Water Cartilaginous Fishes in the Central Mediterranean Sea: Comparison between Geographic Areas with Two Low Impact Tools for Sampling

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Baited lander represents a low impact technique, an alternative to the traditional trawl sampling for collecting data on fish diversity and abundance, especially for threatened species such as Chondrichthyes living in sensitive habitats.

Design and Analysis of a Sub-Surface Longline Marine Aquaculture Farm for Co-Existence with Offshore Wind Farm

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
There has been growing interest recently in hybrid installations integrating the offshore wind farm and aquaculture farm as co-existence while optimizing ocean space use. The offshore marine farms beyond coastal or sheltered areas will require mooring to

Acoustic estimation of longline tuna abundance [PDF]

open access: yesICES Journal of Marine Science, 2000
The French Polynesia Economic Exclusive Zone is located in an important longline fishing ground for albacore (Thunnus alalunga), yellowfin (T. albacares) and bigeye tuna (T. obesus). Longline tuna abundance estimates using commercial catches are particularly biased when hook depth does not coincide with the depths at which tuna prefer to swim. To avoid

Time of death: behavioral responses of an oceanic whitetip shark, Carcharhinus longimanus, to capture by a longline fishing vessel

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2023
Background Bycatch mortality in longline fisheries is a major contributor to global declines in shark populations. The duration of time that an animal is hooked and the impacts of hooking on behavior affect the likelihood of mortality.

Investigation of the Effects of Hook Size and Bait Type on the Catch of Whiting, Merlangius merlangus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Gadidae) in Bottom Longline Fisheries of the Black Sea

open access: yesAquatic Sciences and Engineering, 2021
This study was carried out along the Ünye coasts of the South-eastern Black Sea (Turkey), in order to investigate the effects of hook size and bait type on the catch of whiting, Merlangius merlangus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Gadidae) in the bottom longline ...

Killer whale depredation and associated costs to Alaskan sablefish, Pacific halibut and Greenland turbot longliners. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Killer whale (Orcinus orca) depredation (whales stealing or damaging fish caught on fishing gear) adversely impacts demersal longline fisheries for sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria), Pacific halibut (Hippoglossus stenolepis) and Greenland turbot ...

Estimating Fishing Effort and Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Longline Vessels in the Indian Ocean

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Protein from fish is essential for feeding the world’s population and is increasingly recognized as critical for food security. To ensure that fisheries resources can be sustainably maintained, fisheries management must be appropriately implemented. When
