Pew Institute for Ocean Science awards 5 fellowships in support of global marine conservation
Date:2/4/2008

tist at IFREMER (The French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea), and the first Pew Fellow in Marine Conservation from France. Through her fellowship project, Dr. Rochet will work to determine which of two approaches to commercial fishing least impacts the ecosystem -- selectively capturing one or more species, or fishing more broadly and discarding unwanted bycatch fish. The global objective to reduce wasteful bycatch has encouraged commercial fishermen to fish selectively, yet this approach may be causing significant ecosystem damage by removing a member of the food web in disproportionate numbers. Dr. Rochet will use her findings to advise international fisheries officials to focus on developing selective fishing gears and methods, or on identifying improved uses for bycatch.
