Recognising and Protecting the National Benefit of Sustainable Fisheries in the UK

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 561-576, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Sustainable commercial fishing makes valuable contributions to coastal regions and broader national benefits. This paper offers three arguments in relation to what is required for the societal benefits of sustainable fisheries to be fully realised and considers each in the context of the UK but with global relevance.

Lethal and non-lethal effects of trawling on the benthic invertebrate food web [PDF]

, 2020
The pulse trawl is presented as an alternative for the traditional tickler chain beam trawl. The beam trawl has a direct lethal effect on the benthic community, which is much less for the pulse trawl. However, the pulse trawl, due to its electrical field

What acoustic telemetry can and cannot tell us about fish biology

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 106, Issue 5, Page 1260-1284, May 2025.
Abstract Acoustic telemetry (AT) has become ubiquitous in aquatic monitoring and fish biology, conservation, and management. Since the early use of active ultrasonic tracking that required researchers to follow at a distance their species of interest, the field has diversified considerably, with exciting advances in both hydrophone and transmitter ...

Electrotrawling: a promising alternative fishing technique warranting further exploration [PDF]

, 2015
In trawl fisheries, beam trawls with tickler chains, chain mats or bobbin ropes are used to target flatfish or shrimp. High fuel consumption, seabed disturbance and high discard rates are well-known disadvantages of this fishing technique.

Mitigating the effect of by‐catch on endangered marine life

Animal Conservation, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 172-184, April 2025.
Fishing gears cause substantial impacts on the oceans and their ecosystems, and many marine animals, such as sea turtles, marine mammals, seabirds and elasmobranchs, end up as by ‐catch. In this paper, the most effective mitigation measures were investigated for each group, taking into account the fishing gear with which they interact most.

Hotspots in peril: Misalignment of conservation efforts and ecological values in a shallow coastal sea

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 160-179, January 2025.
Abstract Misalignment between the location of marine protected areas (MPAs) and ecologically valuable areas, here defined as low conservation conformity, may arise due to conflicting socioeconomic and ecological demands, diminishing MPA effectiveness.

Between forests and coasts: Fishworkers on the move in India

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 24, Issue 3, July 2024.
Abstract The Covid‐19 lockdown in India in March 2020 revealed the presence of Adivasi communities in the marine fishing industry of Goa, a coastal state in India. While the migration for work of Adivasi communities from the central regions of the country is well recorded, their movement across geographies of the forest and the coast is relatively ...
