Exploring the potential connection between dFADs deployment areas and important oceanic or coastal critically endangered leatherback and hawskbill sea turtle habitats in the Pacific Ocean.
We explore the potential for dynamic ocean management in an emerging hotspot of leatherback sea turtle bycatch in the New Zealand pelagic longline fishery.
We generated high quality blood transcriptome assemblies for hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), loggerhead (Caretta caretta), green (Chelonia mydas), and leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) turtles.
We created a management strategy evaluation to compare static and dynamic closures in a simulated fishery, aimed at reducing bycatch of leatherback turtles.
Our stock assessments provide information on the dynamics of fish populations and scientific information to fishery managers regarding stock status, historical and future biomass, and recruitment trends.
