The history of global longline fishing illustrates the role of new technologies (eg vessel
innovations, freezers, fishing gear), the expansion of fishing grounds, and the operational …

Seabirds are amongst the most threatened taxa in the world, often due to incidental mortality
(bycatch) in fisheries. Hundreds of thousands are thought to be killed worldwide in gillnets …

Recent research on ocean health has found large predator abundance to be a key element
of ocean condition. Fisheries can impact large predator abundance directly through targeted …

International instruments of fisheries governance have set the core principles for the
management of highly migratory fishes. We evaluated the progress of tuna Regional …

Qualitative risk assessment frameworks, such as the Productivity Susceptibility Analysis
(PSA), have been developed to rapidly evaluate the risks of fishing to marine populations …

Abstract Information available on impacts of fisheries on target or bycatch species varies
greatly, requiring development of risk assessment tools to determine potentially …

Marine spatial planning (MSP) requires spatially explicit environmental risk assessment
(ERA) frameworks with quantitative or probabilistic measures of risk, enabling an evaluation …

Seabirds, as foragers in marine waters for at least part of their lifecycle, encounter the global
fishing fleet in search of marine resources. While fishing gear is designed to catch fish and …

Data required from fisheries monitoring programmes substantially expand as management
authorities transition to implement elements of ecosystem-based fisheries management …

Abstract Productivity and Susceptibility Analysis (PSA) is a methodology for evaluating the
vulnerability of a stock based on its biological productivity and susceptibility to fishing. In this …
