Review and evaluation of fishing-related incidental mortality for Pacific salmon .: Fs70-6/2016-049E-PDF

"This review of fishing-related incidental mortality (FRIM) for Pacific salmon provides a series of foundational steps towards a better biological understanding and an overall risk assessment of FRIM. These include: a comprehensive review of factors linked to FRIM; a mortality rate evidence catalogue that amalgamates relevant mortality estimates; a synthesis of five key factors that are most relevant to derive and compare relative risks of FRIM across Pacific salmon fisheries; a risk assessment tool to combine the impacts of the key factors into relative mortality risk scores; and a discussion of possible anchoring methods to translate relative mortality risk scores into absolute mortality rate estimates. The provision of absolute FRIM rate estimates for individual fisheries was not within the scope of this review"--Conclusion, p. 8-9.
