    • Comparison of the efficiency and modes of capture of biodegradable versus nylon gillnets in the Northeast Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) fishery 

      Cerbule, Kristine; Herrmann, Bent; Grimaldo, Eduardo; Larsen, Roger B.; Savina, Esther; Vollstad, Jørgen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-01)
      Modern gillnets are usually made of nylon with high breaking strength, suitable elasticity and durability making them an efficient fishing gear. Lost, abandoned, or discarded gillnets at sea cause plastic pollution and can continue capturing marine animals over long periods of time. Biodegradable materials are being developed to replace nylon in gillnets. However, biodegradable gillnets have shown ...

    • A new method for estimating length-dependent capture modes in gillnets: A case study in the Danish cod (Gadus morhua) fishery 

      Savina, Esther; Herrmann, Bent; Frandsen, Rikke P.; Krag, Ludvig Ahm (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-11)
      Gillnets are used world-wide for harvesting groundfish and pelagic species at sea and in freshwater. Little consideration has been given to how fish are caught in gillnets, even though the capture mode provides valuable information for understanding gear catchability. This paper describes a new method of estimating the length-dependent fish capture modes in gillnets. Using this method, we investigated ...

    • Quantification of catch composition in fisheries: A methodology and its application to compare biodegradable and nylon gillnets 

      Cerbule, Kristine; Savina, Esther; Herrmann, Bent; Larsen, Roger B.; Feekings, Jordan Paul; Krag, Ludvig Ahm; Pellegrinelli, Alina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-01)
      When evaluating fishing gear catches, the focus is often on a few species as opposed to the entire catch. In some fisheries this can lead to ignoring major part of catch composition. Thus, there is a need for a more holistic approach when evaluating the ecological impact of using a specific fishing gear and when comparing two or more gears. In this context, it is relevant to have a method that ...
