• Reconstructing ecosystem dynamics in the central Pacific Ocean, 1952-1998. II. A preliminary assessment of the trophic impacts of fishing and effects on tuna dynamics (2002, methodology): “Natural mortality rate values for tunas were obtained from Hampton (2000) and Fournier et al. (1998).”
• Modelling non-stationary natural mortality in catch-at-age models (2012, background): “(Hampton, 2000; Marty et al., 2003; Aanes et al., 2007; Deriso et al., 2008).”
• Life History and Stock Structure of Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (Thunnus thynnus) (2007, background): “Work to date indicates that mortality of tunas during the juvenile phase is largely a function of size or age rather than species or habitat (Hampton 2000).”
• Reconstructing ecosystem dynamics in the central Pacific Ocean, 1952-1998. I. Estimating population biomass and recruitment of tunas and billfishes (2002, methodology): “The estimated trends in both adult and juvenile yellowfin are very similar to those estimated by Hampton and Fournier (2001b), despite the differences in fishing mortality rates mentioned above.”
• Natural mortality estimators for information‐limited fisheries (2014, methodology): “The latter has been represented as an alternative parameterization of the Estimator (Simpfendorfer 1999a; Heupel and Simpfendorfer 2002) but Jensen (1996) did not present it as such and it is not considered further here. Jensen’s (1996) multiplier, 1.”
• Atlantic bluefin tuna: population dynamics, ecology, fisheries and management (2005, result): “Tagging from Southern bluefin tuna (Thunnus maccoyii) tends to confirm that M is higher for juveniles (between 0.49 and 0.24) compared to that of adults (around 0.1) These rates are also relatively low in comparison to tropical tuna (ICCAT 1997; Hampton 2000).”
• A rapid ontogenetic shift in the diet of juvenile yellowfin tuna from Hawaii (2006, background): “This diet shift is especially important for predators in sized-structured populations with sizedependent variation in mortality (Werner and Gilliam 1984; Hampton 2000).”
• A simple length-structured model based on life history ratios and incorporating size-dependent selectivity: application to spawning potential ratios for data-poor stocks (2016, background): “There are fisheries where juveniles and small individuals contribute to a 612 significant proportion of the catch; e.g., tuna fisheries, where M is known to be size-613 dependent and fisheries often target juveniles (Hampton 2000).”
• A spatially disaggregated, length-based, age-structured population model of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in the western and central Pacific Ocean (2001, methodology): “This or similar procedures are commonly applied in analyses of tagging data (e.g. Hoenig et al. 1998, Bertignac et al. 1999, Hampton 2000).”
• Reproductive ecology and scientific inference of steepness: a fundamental metric of population dynamics and strategic fisheries management (2010, background): “For example, for yellowfin tuna and bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus, Scombridae) Hampton (2000) shows classical trajectories of mortality as a function of age: a rapid decline from the youngest age class, a leveling out of mortality, and then an increase of mortality with increasing age (also see Chen a”
• Is it good or bad to fish with FADs? What are the real impacts of the use of drifting FADs on pelagic marine ecosystems? (2013, background): “However, current analyses suggest higher natural mortality for small bigeye, yellowfin and skipjack tuna than previous estimates (Hampton 2000; Fromentin and Fonteneau 2001; Bromhead et al. 2003).”
