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.

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...

Renewed occurrence of schooling scalloped hammerhead (Sphyrna lewini) and of great hammerhead (S. mokarran) sharks in the Cayman Islands

Frontiers in Marine Science
The scalloped hammerhead shark (Sphyrna lewini), a critically endangered species with a decreasing global population, is characterised by its occurrence in large schools.

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Technology upgradation in tuna fishery, diversification and changing pattern [PDF]

, 2002
Tuna and tuna-like fishes are under-exploited resources of Indian EEZ. Exploitation of oceanic tuna and billfishes are possible only by longlining and purse seining.

Trans-equatorial migration and mixing in the wintering areas of a pelagic seabird [PDF]

, 2015
Despite increasing interest in long-distance migration, the wintering areas, migration corridors, and population mix in winter quarters of most pelagic marine predators are unknown.

Marketing Strategy‐Based Fishers' Segmentation: The Key to Sustainable Fisheries Sector

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper attempts to empirically investigate potentially significant differences in perceptions regarding marketing strategies that could enhance economic and environmental sustainability in the sector based on the Structure—Conduct and Performance (SCP) methodological framework.

Post‐Release Survival of the Pelagic Stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea, Bonaparte, 1832) in French Longline Fisheries in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bycatch remains a critical challenge in global fisheries, even when using selective gears such as longlines. In the French longline fishery targeting Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the Gulf of Lion, the common pelagic stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea) is the primary bycatch species.
