The Jelly-FAD: A paradigm shift in the design of biodegradable Fish Aggregating Devices

Gala Moreno et al.

Summary: Fishers and scientists are collaborating to design biodegradable fish aggregating devices (bio-FADs) for efficient fishing in the tropical Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. The conventional drifting FAD (dFAD) design, using organic ropes and canvases instead of plastic, has a shorter lifespan due to structural stress. To overcome this, a paradigm shift is proposed to minimize stress by redesigning bio-FAD structures, such as the jelly-FAD, which mimics the buoyancy of jellyfish. Preliminary results show that the jelly-FAD aggregates tuna and has a lifespan of over 6 months at sea, with similar drifting speeds to conventional dFADs.

Challenges and misperceptions around global fishing gear loss estimates

Summary: ALDFG is a major source of marine debris globally, with significant socioeconomic and environmental impacts. Estimating the amount of ALDFG entering the ocean is crucial for managers and policy makers, but existing estimates have been found to be inaccurately cited for over a decade, highlighting the need for more accurate and refined estimations.

Spatial management can significantly reduce dFAD beachings in Indian and Atlantic Ocean tropical tuna purse seine fisheries

Taha Imzilen et al.

Summary: The study analyzed dFAD trajectories in the Indian Ocean and Atlantic Ocean, finding that prohibiting deployments in specific areas can significantly reduce dFAD beaching events. The riskiest areas for beaching are not necessarily where dFAD deployment is highest, suggesting closures could have minimal impact on fisheries.

Potential microplastic release from beached fishing gear in Great Britain's region of highest fishing litter density

Luka Seamus Wright et al.

Summary: This study provides an in-depth description of abandoned, lost or otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) on the beaches of the English Southwest Peninsula, with fishing rope and net identified as the largest emitters. ALDFG was found to be over five times more abundant on the south coast compared to the north coast, likely due to higher fishing intensity in the area.

Highest risk abandoned, lost and discarded fishing gear

Eric Gilman et al.

Summary: Derelict abandoned, lost and discarded fishing gear have significant adverse effects on the environment and socio-economic aspects. Focus should be on reducing risks from gillnets, tuna purse seine with fish aggregating devices, and bottom trawls globally, while locally implementing control measures and effective monitoring and enforcement systems. Prioritizing primary and synthesis research is crucial for improving risk assessments and managing derelict gear effectively.

Quantifying drifting Fish Aggregating Device use by the world's largest tuna fishery

Lauriane Escalle et al.

Summary: This study presents novel approaches to estimate annual dFAD deployments and monitoring by individual vessels in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean purse seine fishery. The results indicate a relatively stable trend in dFAD use in the WCPO, with a higher average deployment per year but a lower number of buoys monitored per vessel compared to other oceans.
