Plastic debris is an ever-growing concern adversely affecting the coastal and marine ecosystem. Among plastic waste, a particularly troublesome waste fraction Abandoned, Lost or Discarded Fishing Gears (ALDFG) that continues to trap life for years upon releaseand has significant adverse environmental effects on ecosystems. However, lack of scientific data estimated contribution ALDFG plastics associated reasoning hinders management fishing gear resources across globe. This study presents...
Plastic, and its pollution of marine ecosystems, has emerged as a global concern. Among the several other sources, plastics from abandoned, lost, or discarded fishing gears (ALDFG), ropes are considered most dangerous for wildlife. In EU states, management ALDFG is prioritized through dedicated action plan owing to hazardous nature increase in commercial activity waters. The demands close loop ensure sustainable resource using strategies circular economy (CE). Commercial crucial sector...
Abstract Purpose The ambitions for a more sustainable aquaculture sector in Norway demand the need new ingredients that could be incorporated into feeds. In this context, Calanus finmarchicus products (powder, oil, and hydrolysate) emerge as potential local scalable sources of oil protein. Despite this, there are no studies literature analyzing possible environmental impact these products. goal study is to measure impacts Methods We applied an attributional life cycle assessment method...
The dangerous effects of Abandoned, Lost or Discarded Fishing Gears (ALDFG) is documented in the literature. However, there exists an overall lack understanding quantifying pollution loads fishing gears (FG) territorial waters on beaches. data FG life cycle results mismanagement one troublesome resources across globe. In remote and data-less situations, local stakeholders' knowledge remains only source information. Therefore, this article, we propose: •A methodology to extract fishers' (FK)...
Commercial fishing is a critical economic sector for Norway, yet deficiency of scientific information, regulatory instruments, inadequate implementation, and lack management infrastructure are among the significant causes mismanagement gear (FG) resources. Mismanagement FGs results in leakage plastics through abandoned, lost, or discarded gears (ALDFG), which most threatening litter fraction marine wildlife. In EU-EEA states, ALDFG prioritized dedicated circular economy (CE) action plan....
Marine plastic pollution is a growing stressor affecting both marine and terrestrial life. Plastic polymers are widespread in oceans, including sparsely populated Nordic countries. Norway, fishing-dominant region, faces substantial from fishing ropes, which often end up incinerated, landfilled, or lost the ocean, contributing to ghost problem. This research employs static material flow analysis (MFA) assess mass flows recyclability of 15 rope types used Norway's commercial sector. Findings...
Marine plastic pollution is a mounting concern impacting marine and terrestrial ecosystems globally, including sparsely populated Nordic nations. Norway, fishing-centric region, has reported substantial proportions of fishery-related plastics in litter. Ropes, crucial fishing applications, are often mismanaged contribute to ghost fishing.This study presents Material Flow Analysis (MFA) evaluate mass flows recyclability across 15 rope types commonly deployed by Norway's commercial fishers. We...
