A shaking codend could stimulate fish movement and increase contact probability, both of which could increase the escape chances for small redfish.
Eco-friendly extraction of valuable bio-products from snow crab processing
Green extraction methods offer alternatives to traditional chemically intensive approaches for valorizing snow crab processing discards.
Study: Organizing artisanal fishers and processors improves fisheries management
Participation by traditionally excluded communities increases science-based fisheries management, a new study concludes.

The method developed in this study will promote the development of tuna fishery monitoring and provide a strategy for fish biodiversity research.
Warming ocean water a threat to predatory species, Woods Hole study determines
Tuna, billfishes and sharks in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico could lose 40 to 70 percent of their suitable habitat due to warming ocean water.
Fisheries in Focus: Busting misconceptions about bottom trawling and its environmental impacts
Fisheries researchers examine all environmental impacts of bottom-trawling and compare the fishing method to other forms of food production.

A new underwater artificial intelligence bot could "revolutionize" ocean monitoring and IUU fishing identification, scientists say.
Ocean warming increases risk of salmon bycatch in Pacific hake fishery
Ocean warming and increased frequency of marine heatwaves could lead to higher Chinook salmon bycatch rates, scientists say.
Can using biodegradable fishing gear help reduce the cost of ghost fishing?
Biodegradable fishing gear must improve to help address the environmental and economic impacts of ghost fishing, a new study concludes.
