A Long-Term Overview of Elasmobranch Fisheries in an Oceanic Archipelago: A Case Study of the Madeira Archipelago by Mafalda Freitas, Filipa Pinho-Duarte, Madalena Gaspar, Pedro Ideia, João Delgado, Sara C. Cerqueira, Ricardo Sousa

“…Management measures currently in place need to be updated and ought to be based on studies on the type and size of hooks for each fishery, to ultimately infer about species-specific survival rates, as well as the fishing gears’ soak time. Moreover, studies on the enhancement of food supply through fisheries discards are still missing, even though it is highly likely that this input may alter the dynamics of marine food webs.…”
