Perceptions and attitudes of residents toward small-scale longline tuna fishing in the Galapagos Marine Reserve: conservation and management implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Longlining represents a cost-effective fishing modality for catching tuna, but its use is contentious due to the unintended catch of endangered, threatened, and protected (ETP) species.

Experimental Investigation of the Hydrodynamic Characteristics of Longline Aquaculture Facilities under Current and Wave Conditions

open access: yesFishes, 2023
In this study, a longline aquaculture facility with lantern nets off the coast of northern China was modelled to conduct hydrodynamic tests starting from the culture unit to the entire facility under various current and wave conditions.

Threats of Longline Fishing to Global Albatross Diversity

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Albatrosses are among the most threatened seabird species. Often entangled in gillnets or hooked while longline fishing gear is being set, albatrosses are affected by fishing. This is assumed to be especially true in cases where illegal longline fishing vessels are involved, as they are less likely to implement the bycatch mitigation measures ...

Comparison growth of Kappaphycus alvarezii (Rhodophyta, Solieriaceae) cultivation in floating cage and longline in Indonesia

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2017
Currently, cultivation using cages for Kappaphycus alvarezii was limited reported before. This study aims to reveal growth of K. alvarezii cultivated in floating cages and longline.

Lessons from seabird conservation in Alaskan longline fisheries [PDF]

open access: yesConservation Biology, 2019
Abstract Although bycatch of seabirds and other long‐lived species is a critical conservation issue in world fisheries, case studies documenting significant reductions in the mortality of these low‐productivity species in a fishery are rare.

A review of cetacean interactions with longline gear

open access: yesJ. Cetacean Res. Manage., 2023
Fishery-cetacean interactions, including those with longline gear, give rise to economic, ecological and social concerns. This paper reviews problems resulting from cetacean-longline interactions, considers potential strategies to reduce interactions and

Can biodegradable materials reduce plastic pollution without decreasing catch efficiency in longline fishery?

open access: yesMarine Pollution Bulletin, 2022
Longlining is a widely used fishing method. During longline fishing, some of the snoods connecting the hooks to the mainline are often lost at sea. Since snoods are made of nylon or polyester, lost snoods contribute to marine plastic pollution. Replacing

Clustering of disaggregated fisheries data reveals functional longline fleets across the Pacific

The Challenges of Managing Depredation and Bycatch of Toothed Whales in Pelagic Longline Fisheries: Two U.S. Case Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Direct interactions with fisheries are broadly recognized as the leading conservation threat to small cetaceans. In open-ocean environments, one of the primary gear types implicated in these interactions is the pelagic longline.

Electronic monitoring for improved accountability in western Pacific tuna longline fisheries

open access: yes, 2021
The collection of accurate fisheries catch data is critical to ensuring sustainable management of tuna fisheries, mitigating their environmental impacts and for managing transboundary fish stocks.
