Associations of Commercial Fisheries and Cold‐Water Corals and Sponges

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 116-129, March 2026.
Three metrics for determining whether the marine life that are landed by commercial fisheries are associated with cold‐water corals and sponges: (a) Adjacent; (b) General Proximity; and (c) Habitat. The relationship between these structure forming invertebrates (SFI) and fisheries is robust across analytical approaches.

Best practices for mitigating seabird bycatch on Taiwanese albacore longline fishing vessels operating in the southeastern Atlantic Ocean

Global Ecology and Conservation
Seabird bycatch—particularly involving albatrosses and petrels—remains a significant conservation concern in pelagic longline fisheries. This study evaluated the effectiveness of three mitigation measures—bird-scaring lines (BSLs), weighted branch lines,

‘Building the (Im)perfect Beast’: Strategies for Identifying Appropriate Spatial Stock Assessment Model Complexity From an International, Blinded High‐Resolution Simulation Experiment

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 196-212, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite their potential to inform sustainable regional harvest and climate‐resilient fisheries management, spatial stock assessment models remain underused for management advice. To identify barriers that inhibit broader use of these methods, we conducted a blinded international simulation experiment mimicking real‐world stock assessment ...

Length-frequency estimation for yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) caught by commercial fishing gear in the Eastern Pacific Ocean [PDF]

, 1992
ENGLISH: Methods of collecting samples for the purpose of estimating the numbers and weights of fish caught, by length interval, are described. Several models for two-stage sampling are described, and the equations for the estimators and their variances ...

Chasing Fish: 130 Years of Innovation, Displacement and Depletion in Scottish Fisheries

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 227-247, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Rebuilding the depleted fisheries of the 21st century requires an understanding of past drivers of their decline. Despite Scotland's central role in the commercial exploitation of North Sea fisheries for over a century, associations between technological innovations, regulatory introductions and fishery landings have not previously been ...

Post-release survival of loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) incidentally hooked in a North Atlantic pelagic longline fishery

Frontiers in Marine Science
Estimating mortality of sea turtles incidentally captured in fishing gear is essential to understanding fishery impacts on sea turtle populations. Loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) are a component of bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries, including ...

Results of testing three types of streamer lines for reduction of seabird bycatch in demersal longline fishery

Известия ТИНРО, 2014
The streamer lines of 3 types are tested and compared: i) the model used in the USA Pacific waters; and ii-iii) two new models made of cheaper materials, more accessible in Russia.

Body Condition as a Shared Response to Environment in a Commercially Important Demersal Fish Assemblage

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 264-284, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Measures of an organism's weight at a given length are often considered reliable indicators of energy reserves or ‘condition’, which can be related to fecundity and risk of mortality. Understanding the impact of environmental change on fish condition may therefore inform sustainable management of human activities in marine ecosystems.

Decarbonizing Fisheries Through Ensuring Healthy Stock Status

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 370-380, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Industrial capture fisheries depend on fossil fuels, which tend to dominate both greenhouse gas emissions and operational costs of this form of seafood production. Improving energy efficiency is, in addition to shifting to alternative fuels, a crucial path towards decarbonizing fisheries.

How much do we know about seabird bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries? A simulation study on the potential bias caused by the usually unobserved portion of seabird bycatch.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Not much is known about the fleet level total seabird bycatch from pelagic longlines of United States vessels in the western North Atlantic or other fleets of the Atlantic or other oceans.
