Can deep-sea fishing ever be sustainable? Joanne Clarke, a PhD student at the University of Glasgow and colleagues suggests that there might be a way to make the practice less damaging.

Bycatch reduction is a win-win for fishers and for the marine life caught.  How can we do this? The Marine Scotland Science team shows one possible solution.

When stressors pile up in the ocean, their cumulative impact can be much worse for marine life. Just ask Australia's shy albatross.

Simply attaching UV LED lights to the gillnet floatlines can help prevent green sea turtles being accidentally caught in fishing operations.

Ideally discards of marine life accidentally caught whilst fishing should be minimized by not catching non-targets in the first place.
