Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)
Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Discards by marine commercial fisheries have been an issue of major concern to the scientific community in recent years. We modeled the ecological and trophic consequences of a mandatory landing obligation (LO) regulated by the reformed Common Fisheries Policy [Regulation (EU) 1380/2013] on the Thermaikos Gulf ecosystem (northwestern Aegean ...

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 ...

Seabird bycatch in New Zealand trawl and longline fisheries, 1998-2004 [PDF]
, 2008 Fisheries bycatch is a threatening process for populations of procellariiform seabirds, and is of particular importance for the conservation of albatross, an especially threatened group at a global scale. There is a high level ofendemism of albatross and

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.

Management Implications of Mesopelagic Forage Fisheries for Bigeye Tuna Stocks
Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Many large marine predators forage on mesopelagic fish stocks, including commercially valuable tunas. The mesopelagic is under increasing interest for commercial exploitation, given its large biomass with potential to supply fishmeal for aquaculture feed or fish oil.
