An overview of Cuban commercial marine fisheries: the last 80 years
, 2017 There is an urgent need to assess the status of fisheries in tropical waters, where fishing has targeted hundreds of species in complex ecosystems. Using a catch-based method, originally described by Food and Agriculture Organization staff to assess the ...

Reconstruction of Domestic Marine Fisheries Catches for Oman (1950-2015)
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016 Domestic marine fisheries in Oman are increasingly viewed as the eventual economic alternative to the soon to be depleted oil reserves. This has galvanized the Omani government to invest in the management of its marine living resources.

Mapping EU fishing activities using ship tracking data [PDF]
, 2016 Information and understanding of fishing activities at sea are fundamental components of marine knowledge and maritime situational awareness. Such information is important to fisheries science, public authorities and policy makers. In this paper we introduce a first map at European scale of EU fishing activities extracted using Automatic Identification

Quantitative processing of broadband data as implemented in a scientific splitbeam echosounder [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The use of quantitative broadband echosounders for biological studies and surveys offers considerable advantages over narrowband echosounders. These include improved spectral-based target identification and significantly increased ability to resolve individual targets.

Fluctuation scaling in Lévy-stable recruitment of marine fishes in randomly varying environments [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 This paper studies the scaling properties of recruitment fluctuations in randomly varying environments, for abundant marine species with extreme reproductive behavior. Fisheries stock-recruitment data from the North Atlantic display fluctuation scaling, a proportionality between the standard deviation and the average recruitment among stocks.

Modelling the impact of deep-water crustacean trawl fishery in the marine ecosystem off Portuguese Southwestern and South Coasts: I) the trophic web and trophic flows [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 The concentration of the population in coastal regions, in addition to the direct human use, is leading to an accelerated process of change and deterioration of the marine ecosystems. Human activities such as fishing together with environmental drivers (e.g.

Identifying partners at sea on contrasting fisheries around the world [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Here we present an approach to identify partners at sea based on fishing track analysis, and describe this behaviour in six different fleets: 1) pelagic pair trawlers, 2) large bottom otter trawlers, 3) small bottom otter trawlers, 4) mid-water otter trawlers, all operating in the North-East Atlantic Ocean, 5) anchovy purse-seiners in the South-East ...
