Sentence examples for fisheries I from inspiring English sources

Devices aiming at reducing sea turtle bycatch through gear modifications have largely been developed for large-scale commercial fisheries, i.e. longlines and trawls, but not for set nets.

The changeable nature of coastal fisheries (i.e., target species, gear types) over short time scales also challenges characterizations of this fisheries sector [24].

Mixed gear fisheries tended to be present in all regions, particularly in areas with high density small-scale fisheries (i.e., West Africa).

Our results highlight an increasing trend in the number of unsustainable fisheries (i.e., an increase in the risk of ecosystem overfishing) from the 1950s to the 2000s, and illustrate the worldwide geographic expansion of overfishing.

The potential for fishing to drive evolutionary changes in the life histories of exploited fish populations has long been recognized, given that fisheries: (i) are often highly selective, (ii) frequently impose mortality much greater than natural mortality, and (iii) that many life history traits potentially under fisheries selection are heritable (Stokes and Law 2000; Heino and Godo 2002).

This means that rather than giving the exact retention probability, the curve gives the relative retention probability compared to the length class fully selected by fisheries, i.e. compared to length μ, so that r is scaled to 1.

In New South Wales, Australia, a codend comprising a posterior section made from 35-mm square-shaped mesh (i.e. hung on the bar) was developed and subsequently recommended for partial implementation in a multi-species demersal trawl fishery (i.e. for use when eastern king prawn – Melicertus plebejus – is the primary target species).

An agreement between states and the federal government sends one-third directly to fishermen, one-third to states for use at their discretion, and one-third to federal and state representatives to develop a program to pay fishermen to exit the fishery (i.e. a buyout program).

Assuming a constant fishing strategy fishery (i.e., TLc constant) and a constant ecosystem function (i.e., TE and P1 constant), target %PPRp can be estimated by inverting Eq. (1).

In cases where age-specific F estimates were available, we used those for the age classes most heavily targeted by the fishery (i.e., the highest F values).
