Assessing incidental bycatch of seabirds in Norwegian coastal commercial fisheries: Empirical and methodological lessons
With diminishing seabird populations and little knowledge on incidental bycatch in fisheries in the Northeast Atlantic, this study aimed to screen seabird bycatch in Norwegian coastal fisheries in 2009. The purpose was to 1) quantify magnitude of seabird bycatch rates and estimate total bycatch from...
