• The role of temperature in the capture and release of fish (2013, background): “promising new approaches for studying the effects of thermal and capture stressors used indices of reflex impairment (Davis and Ottmar 2006; Davis 2007, 2010) or vulnerability to predation (e.”
• Recovery bags reduce post-release impairments in locomotory activity and behavior of bonefish (Albula spp.) following exposure to angling-related stressors☆ (2013, background): “RAMP scores have been correlated with stressor duration and mortality for a number of fish species (Davis, 2005, 2007; Davis and Ottmar, 2006; Humborstad et al., 2009; Raby et al., 2012).”

• Assessing Stress and Predicting Mortality in Economically Significant Crustaceans (2012, background): “Davis and Ottmar (2006) formalized the use of reflex actions to predict mortality in fishes and coined the term RAMP.”
• Short-term survival of discarded target fish and non-target invertebrate species in the “eurocutter” beam trawl fishery of the southern North Sea (2014, background): “While physical injuries are quick and easy to measure and do not further complicate the already complex experimental designs, they do not fully predict survival as visible injuries are unrelated to reflex impairment, which is also a strong independent predictor (Davis and Ottmara, 2006; Stoner, 2012”
• Sublethal effects of catch-and-release fishing: measuring capture stress, fish impairment, and predation risk using a condition index (2010, methodology): “indices from which BtR was modelled (RAMP) have been correlated with increased mortality for walleye pollock, northern rock sole (Lepidopsetta polyxystra), sablefish, Pacific halibut, and coho salmon (Davis and Ottmar, 2006; Davis, 2007).”
• Looking beyond the mortality of bycatch: sublethal effects of incidental capture on marine animals (2014, unknown): “, barotrauma), and contact with other organisms, debris, or fishing gear during capture and/or escape (Davis and Ottmar, 2006; Sartor et al., 2006).”
