Revealing the Global Longline Fleet with Satellite Radar
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.

Acoustic estimation of longline tuna abundance [PDF]
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

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

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.

Review of the Status and Developments in Seaweed Farming Infrastructure
This study provides an overview of both traditional nearshore seaweed farming infrastructure and more recent developments intended for large scale farming in more exposed coastal waters where nutrient supply may be a limiting factor. The success of multi-

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