Hookpod-mini: a smaller potential solution to mitigate seabird bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries

Endangered Species Research, 2019
Hookpods are an emerging technology designed to reduce seabird bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries. Hookpod-minis were trialled in the New Zealand surface longline fishery in 2016-2017 during short-term experimental (20 longline sets) and longer-term ...

Evaluating the potential effectiveness of compensatory mitigation strategies for marine bycatch. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
Conservationists are continually seeking new strategies to reverse population declines and safeguard against species extinctions. Here we evaluate the potential efficacy of a recently proposed approach to offset a major anthropogenic threat to many ...

An Updated Ecology of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) at Sea

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atlantic salmon have had a key role in European and North American oceans and human societies. Salmon are exploited and observed in rivers and along coasts, but there has always been great interest in knowing where salmon are going when they are at sea.

Commercial viability of locating pelagic longline branchline weights at the hook to reduce seabird bycatch

Endangered Species Research, 2020
Bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries threatens the viability of some seabird populations and reduces fishing efficiency. The mass of a branchline fishing weight and its distance from the hook significantly explain seabird catch risk during setting and ...

NEAFC request on seabird bycatch in the NEAFC regulatory areas (RAs)

, 2023
No seabird bycatch events were reported to ICES in fisheries in the North-East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC) regulatory areas (RAs) for 2019–2021. Until significant improvements in data quality and quantity are resolved, ICES cannot conclude that

Reducing seabird bycatch in the Hawaii longline tuna fishery

, 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.

Species’ traits and exposure as a future lens for quantifying seabird bycatch vulnerability in global fisheries

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2022
Fisheries bycatch, the incidental mortality of non-target species, is a global threat to seabirds and a major driver of their declines worldwide. Identifying the most vulnerable species is core to developing sustainable fisheries management strategies ...

Insights from three decades of IUCN Red List assessments catalyzing shark, ray, and chimaera conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species is a critical measure of global aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity status. It is also the basis for the Red List Index, which tracks extinction risk over time.

Counter‐factual simulation highlights requirements for additional management to avert extinction of a relict Tītī/Sooty Shearwater population

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 4, Page 1348-1363, October 2026.
Seabirds play key ecological roles but face increasing threats worldwide. Among them, Tītī (Sooty Shearwater) Ardenna grisea are among the most abundant and culturally significant species in the Southern Hemisphere but are also threatened. Kapiti Island, Aotearoa (New Zealand), holds a Tītī colony which, despite eradication of non‐native mammalian ...
