• Response of demersal fish communities to the presence of fish farms (2005, background): “In the present study, we investigated the effect of the presence of fish farms on marine biota of wild fish in 3 areas in the Aegean Sea.”
• Overfishing and the disappearance of short-beaked common dolphins from western Greece (2008, background): “…rates were assumed to be 14% for purse seiners (Tsimenides et al. 1995 — a value reported as likely to be an underestimate), 28% for beach seiners (Stergiou et al. 1996), 39% for bottom trawlers (Machias et al. 2001) and 9.8% for netters and longliners (Stergiou et al. 2002, Tzanatos et al. 2007).”

• Theories and behavioural drivers underlying fleet dynamics models (2012, background): “Most of these variables are difficult to measure in practice, which probably explains the limited number of empirical applications that have been published to date (Gillis et al. 1995; Vesteergard 1996; Turner 1997; Machias et al. 2001; Borges et al. 2006; Macher and Boncoeur 2010; Poos et al. 2010b”
• Characterisation of the discards generated by bottom trawling in the northwestern Mediterranean (2004, background): “Despite the fact that the trawl fishery is one of the most important fisheries in the western Mediterranean, both in terms of the volume of catches and in their economic value, the current knowledge of the discards generated by bottom trawling is scarce (Carbonell et al., 1998; Machias et al., 2001;”
