Post-release survival of juvenile silky sharks captured in a tropical tuna purse seine fishery
Juvenile silky sharks Carcharhinus falciformis comprise the largest component of the incidental elasmobranch catch taken in tropical tuna purse seine fisheries. During a chartered cruise on board a tuna purse seine vessel conducting typical fishing operations we investigated the post-release survival and rates of interaction with fishing gear of incidentally captured silky sharks using a combin...

Effects of gear characteristics on the presence of bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus) in the catches of the purse-seine fishery of the eastern Pacific Ocean Overfishing of bigeye tuna in the eastern Pacific Ocean has motivated a search for a practical means of reducing the catch of bigeye tuna in mixed species aggregations. To explore the effects of gear characteristics on the catch of bigeye tuna, a...
متن کاملBehavior of target and non - target species on drifting FADs and when encircled by purse seine gear WCPFC -
Empirical and observational data were collected from 31 sets made from a tuna purse seine vessel during the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation’s (ISSF) WCPO bycatch reduction research cruise. Simultaneously, skipjack (Katsuwonis pelamis), yellowfin (Thunnus albacares), and bigeye (T. obesus) tuna and silky sharks (Carcharhinus falciformis) were implanted with pressure sensing acous...
متن کاملEffects of Gear Characteristics on the Presence of Bigeye Tuna (thunnus Obesus) in the Catches of the Purse-seine Fishery of the Eastern Pacific
Effects of gear characteristics on the presence of bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus) in the catches of the purse-seine fishery of the eastern Pacific Overfishing of bigeye tuna in the eastern Pacific Ocean has motivated a search for pratical means of reducing bigeye catch. We develop a classification algorithm for the presence/absence of bigeye in purse-seine sets on floating objects, the dominant m...
متن کاملAn Indicator-based Analysis of Key Shark Species based on Data Held by SPC-OFP
Longline and purse seine logsheet and observer datasets held by SPC-OFP were examined to assess the stock status of eight WCPFC key shark species. Both longline and purse seine logsheet datasets suffer from missing shark catch records and a lack of species-specific recording, therefore the indicator analysis was based on observer data only. Shark data from the observer data sets are, however, a...
