Leatherback bycatch in an eastern Caribbean artisanal longline fishery [PDF]
Endangered Species Research, 2019 Overlap of small-scale fisheries with sea turtle high-use areas is of growing concern, but the extent to which these endangered species interact with fishing gear is rarely known.

Choice of Remuneration Regime in Fisheries: The Case of Hawaii’s Longline Fisheries [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 2009 One of the most prominent features of remuneration in Hawaii’s longline fisheries industry has been the norm of share contract regimes. This paper investigates whether the use of the share contract regime is positively correlated to increased economic returns.

Vulnerability of the Oceanic Whitetip Shark to Pelagic Longline Fisheries [PDF]
PLOS ONE, 2015 A combination of fisheries dependent and independent data was used to assess the vulnerability of the oceanic whitetip shark to pelagic longline fisheries. The Brazilian tuna longline fleet, operating in the equatorial and southwestern Atlantic, is used as a case study.

Global seabird bycatch in longline fisheries [PDF]
Endangered Species Research, 2011 Bycatch in longline fisheries is believed to govern the adverse conservation status of many seabird species, but no comprehensive global assessment has been undertaken. We reviewed the extent of seabird bycatch in all longline fisheries for which data are available.

Lessons from seabird conservation in Alaskan longline fisheries [PDF]
Conservation 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.

Relative Impacts of Simultaneous Stressors on a Pelagic Marine Ecosystem
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Climate change and fishing are two of the greatest anthropogenic stressors on marine ecosystems. We investigate the effects of these stressors on Hawaii’s deep-set longline fishery for bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus) and the ecosystem which supports it ...
