1. A method for inferring movement rates of fish from mark–recapture data

   release and the recapture. In addition, the intensity of fishing effort (i.e. sampling) by location and ... distances approach. In addition, it also provides a way to generate a movement model that is parameterized ... required for the probability of recapture in a location to match the relative probability of catching an ... unmarked fish in that location. Clearly this may be related to the distance from the release point, but ...

3. The relative by-catches of taxa associated with vulnerable marine ecosystems by autolines and Spanish longlines

   Abstract:  We reanalyzed data collected by the longline fishery in Subarea 88.1 to compare the ... with each gear type, we attributed this difference to a difference in the rate at which VME taxa drop ... greater than Spanish bycatch at all depths represented in our data. Limiting the use of Autolines, which ... are in more intimate contact with the sea floor than Spanish longlines, may decrease bycatches of VME ...
