Modal and empirical lengths at sexual maturity for six deep-sea species in Ecuadorian oceanic waters

Marine and Fishery Sciences, 2023
The objective of the present work was to establish modal lengths, empirical lengths at sexual maturity, and proportions of mature individuals of six deep-sea species from the bycatch of the experimental fishery for Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus ...

Incidental capture of sea turtles by longlines in the Gulf of Gabès (South Tunisia): A comparative study between bottom and surface longlines

Scientia Marina, 2008
Longlines are a fishing gear that have traditionally been used world-wide. Surface longlines are mainly used to fish swordfish, albacore, tuna and some species of sharks, while bottom longlines are used to fish large bottom-dwelling fish such as groupers.

Deep-water fishing tactics of the Spanish fleet in the Northeast Atlantic. Seasonal and spatial distribution

Scientia Marina, 2011
The classification and identification of all the Spanish fishing activity targeting deep-sea species was conducted using a non-hierarchical classification technique designed for large matrices (CLARA).

Analysis of the fishing effort of the Mexican longline tuna fleet operating in the Gulf of Mexico in 2004

Ciencias Marinas, 2010
The Gulf of Mexico yellowfin tuna (YFT) longline fishing effort for 2004 was analyzed. The data used to describe the longline characteristics and estimate the catch efficiency of the vessels (catch in number of organisms per trip) were obtained from ...

Interactions Between a Large Marine Protected Area, Pelagic Tuna and Associated Fisheries

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The efficacy of large marine protected areas (MPA) for the conservation of mobile pelagic species is widely debated. Here, we quantified spatial and temporal trends in standardized catch per unit effort (CPUE) of two target pelagic species, yellowfin ...

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

, 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

Study on the catch, bycatch and discard of Chinese pelagic longline fisheries in the Atlantic Ocean

Aquaculture and Fisheries
Catch, bycatch and discard information is important for the assessment and management of fisheries. Using Chinese pelagic tuna longline observer data from 2010 to 2018, we studied the catch composition in the Chinese pelagic tuna longline fisheries in ...

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...

Comparative analysis of depth distribution for seventeen large pelagic fish species captured in a longline fishery in the central-eastern Pacific Ocean

Scientia Marina, 2012
The objective of this study was to estimate depth distribution of pelagic species captured in a longline fishery and to evaluate the difference in depth distribution among species.

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...
