Commercial fishing patterns influence odontocete whale-longline interactions in the Southern Ocean [PDF]
AbstractThe emergence of longline fishing around the world has been concomitant with an increase in depredation-interactions by odontocete whales (removal of fish caught on hooks), resulting in substantial socio-economic and ecological impacts. The extent, trends and underlying mechanisms driving these interactions remain poorly known. Using long-term (

Video-Based Hierarchical Species Classification for Longline Fishing Monitoring [PDF]
The goal of electronic monitoring (EM) of longline fishing is to monitor the fish catching activities on fishing vessels, either for the regulatory compliance or catch counting. Hierarchical classification based on videos allows for inexpensive and efficient fish species identification of catches from longline fishing, where fishes are under severe ...

Tuna longline fishing around West and Central Pacific seamounts. [PDF]
Seamounts have been identified as aggregating locations for pelagic biodiversity including tuna; however the topography and prevailing oceanography differ between seamounts and not all are important for tuna. Although a relatively common feature in oceanic ecosystems, little information is available that identifies those that are biologically important.

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

Global hotspots of shark interactions with industrial longline fisheries
Sharks are susceptible to industrial longline fishing due to their slow life histories and association with targeted tuna stocks. Identifying fished areas with high shark interaction risk is vital to protect threatened species.

CPUE standardization for southern bluefin tuna (Thunnus maccoyii) in the Korean tuna longline fishery, accounting for spatiotemporal variation in targeting through data exploration and clustering [PDF]
Accounting for spatial and temporal variation in targeting is a concern in many catch per unit effort (CPUE) standardization exercises. In this study we standardized southern bluefin tuna (Thunnus maccoyii, SBT) CPUE from the Korean tuna longline fishery

Marine megafauna exposed to fisheries bycatch belong to some of the most threatened taxonomic groups and include apex and mesopredators that contribute to ecosystem regulation. Fisheries bycatch is a major threat to the conservation of albatrosses, large

Economic linkage impacts of Hawaii's longline fishing regulations [PDF]
Fisheries regulations driven by environmental concerns would not only directly affect fisheries sectors but also tend to indirectly influence other sectors through intersectoral input–output linkages. This paper examines both backward and forward linkages of Hawaii’s fisheries sectors to the rest of the economy, and based on this evaluates the ...
