Area closures Sample Clauses

Area closures. Scientific evidence for effectiveness in pelagic fisheries PROVEN AND RECOMMENDED. Avoiding fishing at peak areas and during periods of intense foraging activity has been used effectively to reduce bycatch in longline fisheries. Caveats /Notes An important and effective management response, especially for high risk areas, and when other measures prove ineffective. Highly effective for target locations/seasons but may displace fishing effort into adjacent or other areas which may not be as well regulated, thus leading to increased incidental mortality elsewhere. Need for combination Must be combined with other measures, both in the specific areas when the fishing season is opened, and also in adjacent areas to ensure displacement of fishing effort does not merely lead to a spatial shift in the incidental mortality. Research needs Further information about the seasonal variability in patterns of species abundance around fisheries. Minimum standards No work done but highly recommended. Implementation monitoring Vessels equipped with VMS and activities monitored by appropriate management authority is considered appropriate monitoring. Areas/seasons should be patrolled to ensure effectiveness if IUU activities are suspected. REFERENCES Xxxxxxxx, X. and XxXxxxx, B., 2002.

Area closures. Scientific evidence for effectiveness in trawl fisheries Avoiding fishing at peak areas and during periods of intense foraging activity has been used effectively to reduce bycatch in longline fisheries. The principles are directly transferrable to trawl and other net fisheries. In some studies, longline-associated mortality has been almost exclusively within the breeding season of seabirds. Several studies have also shown that proximity to breeding colonies is an important determinant of seabird bycatch rates (Xxxxxx et al. 1996; Nel et al. 2002) and temporal closures around breeding areas contributed to a substantial reduction in seabird bycatch (Xxxxxxx & Xxxxx 2004).
