Small cetacean bycatch as estimated from stranding schemes: The common dolphin case in the northeast Atlantic [PDF]
, 2016 Death in fishing gear of non-target species (called ‘bycatch’) is a major concern for marine wildlife, and mostly worrying for long-lived species like cetaceans, considering their demographic characteristics (slow population growth rates and low ...

Seabird bycatch loss rate variability in pelagic longline fisheries
Biological Conservation, 2020 Abstract The incidental mortality of seabirds from fisheries ranks as the greatest threat impacting seabirds globally. However, its impact on seabird populations may have been substantially underestimated due to lost, undetected bycatch. To estimate the full extent of the bycatch problem, knowledge about the magnitude and variability of lost bycatch ...

Ibis, EarlyView.Seabirds serve as key indicators of marine environmental changes, with adult survival being a critical parameter for assessing population health. Iceland hosts some of the largest seabird populations in the North Atlantic, making it a valuable location for studying long‐term trends in seabird demographics.

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 ...

Remote electronic monitoring as a potential alternative to on-board observers in small-scale fisheries [PDF]
, 2018 This is the final version of the article. Available from Elsevier via the DOI in this record.Small-scale fisheries can greatly impact threatened marine fauna. Peru's small-scale elasmobranch gillnet fishery captures thousands of sharks and rays each year,

Chasing Fish: 130 Years of Innovation, Displacement and Depletion in Scottish Fisheries
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 227-247, March 2026.ABSTRACT Rebuilding the depleted fisheries of the 21st century requires an understanding of past drivers of their decline. Despite Scotland's central role in the commercial exploitation of North Sea fisheries for over a century, associations between technological innovations, regulatory introductions and fishery landings have not previously been ...

Maiden voyage into death: are fisheries affecting seabird juvenile survival during the first days at sea? [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 The study of juvenile migration behaviour of seabird species has been limited so far by the inability to track their movements during long time periods. Foraging and flying skills of young individuals are assumed to be inferior to those of adults, making

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Our study investigates the environmental and astronomical drivers of olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) hatching success at Batu Hiu Beach, Indonesia. We demonstrate that air temperature is the dominant predictor of hatching outcomes, while Earth–Moon distance exerts an additional, significant influence independent of humidity and tidal effects ...

Comparing multiple criteria for species identification in two recently diverged seabirds. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Correct species identification is a crucial issue in systematics with key implications for prioritising conservation effort. However, it can be particularly challenging in recently diverged species due to their strong similarity and relatedness.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The issue of bycatch is raising considerable political, mediatic and scientific attention. Bycatch is one of the main causes of at-sea mortality for small cetacean species and for seabirds. Scientists are raising alerts regarding the potential effects on
