• Assessing the Effectiveness of Monitoring Control and Surveillance of Illegal Fishing: The Case of West Africa (2017, background): “There are different drivers of illegal fishing, as we look at industrial fishing, we argue that economic gain is the most significant incentive (Le Gallic and Cox, 2006; Sumaila et al., 2006), alongside with the ability of simply doing so (AndrewsChouicha and Gray, 2005).”
• Managing fisheries for human and food security (2015, background): “35 billion per year in developing countries in the early 2000s (Sumaila et al. 2006).”
• A Cautionary Note on Individual Transferable Quotas (2010, background): “The possibility of further errors in stock assessment is magnified by the significant incidence of illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing worldwide (Sumaila et al. 2006, High Seas Task Force 2006).”
