Catch pattern and size selectivity for a gear designed to prevent fish injuries during the capture process in a North-East Atlantic demersal trawl fishery
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-11)In the North-East Atlantic demersal trawl fishery targeting cod and haddock, the interest on fishing gear designs that preserve fish quality and welfare has grown. However, the gear configurations tested so far imply ... -
Effect of grid section design on trawl size selectivity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Sorting grids are introduced in trawl fisheries to improve size selectivity and reduce the variability of results obtained with sorting devices constructed of netting e.g., codends. Grids are rigid or semi-rigid structures ... -
In situ characterisation of complex suspended particulates surrounding an active submarine tailings placement site in a Norwegian fjord
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-11)Suspended particle measurements over flood and ebb transects of a Norwegian fjord (Frænfjorden) with an active submarine mine tailings placement are presented. Measurements focused on characterisation of spatial variability ... -
Reducing catch efficiency of rabbitfish (Siganus oramin) in a shrimp beam trawl fishery of the South China Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The bycatch of unwanted fish species is a main concern in shrimp beam trawl fishery of the South China Sea. This study evaluated the effect of using combined square-mesh and diamond-mesh codends (CSDM codends) on catch ... -
Size selection and exploitation pattern of diamond mesh codends with different mesh sizes in demersal trawl fishery for banded scad (Caranx (Atule) kalla) in the South China Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Size selection and exploitation pattern of diamond-mesh codends with different mesh sizes, 25 to 54 mm, for demersal trawl fishery targeting banded scad (Caranx (Atule) kalla) was tested and compared using the covered ... -
Understanding and predicting the effect of entrance cone diameters on the catch efficiency of snow crabs (Chionoecetes opilio) in conical pots
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Conical pots with a plastic entrance cone on the top are a type of fishing gear used to harvest snow crabs (Chionoecetes opilio) in Arctic regions. In this study, we assessed the effect of pot entrance diameter on the catch ...
