Seabird bycatch in European waters

Animal Conservation
AbstractThe incidental capture (bycatch) of seabirds is a global conservation issue and a top threat to European species that demands urgent conservation and management action. Here, we present the first European review of seabird bycatch data, considering all fishing gears and data collection methods available in the region.

Reducing seabird bycatch in the Hawaii longline tuna fishery [PDF]

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2008
Mortality in longline fisheries represents a global threat to some species of pelagic seabirds. Regulations were adopted in 2001 to reduce seabird bycatch in the Hawaii longline tuna fishery. We used a Poisson generalized additive regression modeling approach to evaluate the change in seabird bycatch rates from the pre- to post-regulation period, and ...

EU request on monitoring of bycatch of seabirds

2022
ICES advises on a series of fisheries where bycatch is likely to pose a risk to seabird populations. Fisheries within each of the four European DCF regions as well as some parts of the larger DCF areas were reviewed for level IV métiers. Information on bycatch remains relatively sparse and is becoming increasingly dated.

ESTIMATING FISHERY BYCATCH AND EFFECTS ON A VULNERABLE SEABIRD POPULATION

Ecological Applications, 2003
Pelagic longline fisheries worldwide incidentally take long-lived seabird species. This mortality has led to fisheries restrictions to protect seabirds at risk, including Wandering (Diomedea exulans) and Amsterdam Albatross (D. amsterdamensis) in the South Pacific and Spectacled Petrel (Procellaria conspicillata) in the South Atlantic.

Albatross and longlining—Managing seabird bycatch

Marine Policy, 1997
Abstract Seabirds can be accidentally injured or killed during certain types of fishing. The fishing method currently under most scrutiny for its impact on seabird populations is demersal and pelagic longlining. The main species of concern at present are albatross. This paper outlines current mitigation measures, both gear and operational changes, to

Novel Tools to Reduce Seabird Bycatch in Coastal Gillnet Fisheries

Conservation Biology, 1999
Abstract: We examined several strategies to reduce seabird bycatch, primarily of Common Murres ( Uria aalge ) and Rhinoceros Auklets ( Cerorhinca monocerata ), in a coastal salmon drift gillnet fishery in Puget Sound, Washington, U.S.

Reducing seabird bycatch in longline, trawl and gillnet fisheries

Fish and Fisheries, 2007
AbstractWith an increasing number of seabird species, particularly albatross and petrels, becoming threatened, a reduction of fishery impacts on these species is essential for their future survival. Here, mitigation methods to reduce and avoid seabird bycatch are assessed in terms of their ability to reduce bycatch rates and their economic viability ...
