Shark interactions in pelagic longline fisheries

Marine Policy, 2008
Substantial ecological, economic and social problems result from shark interactions in pelagic longline fisheries. Improved understanding of industry attitudes and practices towards shark interactions assists with managing these problems. Information on fisher knowledge and new strategies for shark avoidance may benefit sharks and fishers.

False killer whales and Hawaii’s longline fisheries.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2011
False killer whales have been implicated in depredation, or removal of catch or bait, from pelagic longline fisheries throughout the Indo-Pacific. These interactions often result in significant financial loss to the fishing industry, and though uncommon, hooking, or entanglement of false killer whales during depredation often leads to death or serious ...

Elasmobranch captures in the Fijian pelagic longline fishery

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2016
Abstract Pelagic longline fisheries for relatively fecund tuna and tuna‐like species can have large adverse effects on incidentally caught species with low‐fecundity, including elasmobranchs. Analyses of observer programme data from the Fiji longline fishery from 2011 to 2014 were conducted to characterize the shark and ray catch composition and ...

French Bluefin Tuna Longline Fishery Bycatch Programme

2019
During the last decade, particular attention has been paid worldwide to the problem of bycatch and discards in fisheries. Collaborative research between fishermen and scientists is important to fisheries management. Partnerships with commercial longline fishermen were developed to enable them to participate in two research projects in order to ...

Seabird mortality in longline fisheries around South Georgia

Polar Record, 1993
Incidental mortality of Southern Ocean seabirds due to fishing activities well away from the breeding grounds has been implicated in the population declines of wandering albatross (Diomedea exulans) on South Georgia (Croxall and others 1990) and lies Crozet, black-browed albatross (Diomedea melanophris) on lies Kerguelen, and possibly the southern ...

Revenue Targeting in Fisheries: The Case of Hawaii Longline Fishery [PDF]

open access: possible, 2009
We apply the target revenue model, a version of prospect theory, to investigate how fishermen adjust their trip length to changes in daily revenue. The key finding is that certain groups of fishermen seem more likely to behave according to the target revenue model rather than the standard model of labor supply.
