The incidental catch of seabirds, a common phenomenon bound
to some types of fisheries, is one of the main threats suffered by seabird
populations. To establish which is the best strategy to reduce the incidental
catch of seabirds produce by longline fisheries is the main objective of the
scientific campaign carried out by the team led by professor Jacob González
Solís, from the Department of Animal Biology and the Biodiversity Research
Institute (IRBio), both affiliated to the campus of international excellence
BKC.
