This week REDUCE has met with EU leading Fishing Producer Organizations (FPO) of long line fisheries from Galicia operating in waters of the East Central Atlantic Ocean to explore collaborative work between science and fishing industry on #ETPBycatchReduction measures in this maritime area.

We´ve enjoyed a wonderful presentation by Lucy Arnaud about the development of an AI model for bycatch species recognition in industrial tropical tuna fisheries. This kind of tools emerge as technology that will eventually boost research and improve sustainability of fisheries.

The study was conducted within the framework of the REDUCE project, presenting a novel approach to addressing the bycatch of ETPs of various taxa (sea turtles, seabirds, cetaceans, sharks) interacting with commercial fishing fleets in ECAO.

Academics are always seen as a threat in authoritarian regimes. We're among the first to be attacked--along with journalists, librarians. We're independent sources of knowledge, we think critically, we are viewed as powerful because we teach. Know your value, know why you're a threat. Be bold. 🥰

A study published in Science, with the participation of the University of Coimbra, points to the collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet 120,000 years ago.

The findings will guide decision-making on mitigation measures in coastal regions worldwide.
