An assessment of seabird bycatch in longline and net fisheries in British Columbia / Joanna L. Smith and Ken H. Morgan.
"The initial purpose of this review was to summarise existing seabird bycatch data in the longline fisheries in BC.... Based on the desire to understand the level of bycatch in more than the longline fisheries, we expanded the review to also include net fisheries.... We stress that the estimates of species-specific bycatch may be underestimated due to the high number of unidentified and non-salvaged birds. We also caution the reader that this is a preliminary assessment of the state of seabird bycatch in west coast fisheries; the data we describe were predominantly small sub-samples of the various fisheries examined, and the ad hoc sampling design precluded rigorous analyses."
