Managing the database

Research into bycatch reduction approaches is a very active field involving researchers and fishermen around the world. It is therefore challenging to maintain the most up-to-date compendium of studies. Up-dating the studies contained in this database therefore relies on voluntary submissions from an international network of researchers. Since new technologies to address bycatch are continually being developed, users can also suggest an article or field study to be added to the database to share valuable information regarding bycatch reduction strategies.
