DOI: 10.1007/s10531-018-1610-2
Abstract: Exploitation for trade is one of the biggest threats to many species, especially for marine fishes. Trade regulations should, therefore, be effective in helping conserve marine fish populations. The Convention of International Trade in Endangered… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2020.108642
Abstract: Abstract Bycatch in pelagic longline fleets remains a considerable source of mortality for threatened seabirds. Despite efforts to implement mitigation measures, the effectiveness of their application across multiple fleets and wide spatio-temporal scales remains poorly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.fishres.2017.03.011
Abstract: Abstract The reduction of incidental capture of non-target species in a fishery (bycatch) is a key objective of ecosystem-based fisheries management (EBFM) and critical to the conservation of many marine species. Predicting bycatch events can… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.fishres.2018.03.023
Abstract: Abstract The Nordmore grid is widely used in shrimp trawls to reduce the bycatch of fish species. However, small-sized fish species and juveniles still pass through the grid and enter the codend, along with the… read more here.
