Rights-Based Management, Competition, and Distributional Equity in Hawai‘i’s Largest Commercial Fishery

International Journal of the Commons, 2020
Many global fisheries have transitioned to rights-based management to improve bioeconomic outcomes, but several fishing communities have experienced negative social impacts.

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

Frontiers 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.

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 ...

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

PLoS ONE, 2014
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 ...

Disentangling the complexity of tropical small-scale fisheries dynamics using supervised Self-Organizing Maps.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Tropical small-scale fisheries are typical for providing complex multivariate data, due to their diversity in fishing techniques and highly diverse species composition.

Horizontal and vertical movements of immature dusky sharks Carcharhinus obscurus in relation to commercial longline fisheries in the western North Atlantic Ocean

Animal Biotelemetry, 2021
Background Many species of sharks, including the dusky shark Carcharhinus obscurus, are often incidentally captured in commercial pelagic and bottom longline fisheries.

Bycatch Estimates From a Pacific Tuna Longline Fishery Provide a Baseline for Understanding the Long-Term Benefits of a Large, Blue Water Marine Sanctuary

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Bycatch on pelagic tuna longlines has contributed to population declines in several far-ranging, oceanic species and presents a conservation challenge that area-based management tools are increasingly promoted to address.

Review of dolphinfish biological and fishing data in Japanese waters

Scientia Marina, 1999
The dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) performs seasonal migrations into adjacent waters of Japan, where it is exploited by several fisheries. The annual dolphinfish landings in Japan have tended to decrease in recent years.
