Sea cucumber fisheries: global analysis of stocks, management measures and drivers of overfishing
Worldwide, most sea cucumber fisheries are ineffectively managed, leading to declining
stocks and potentially eroding the resilience of fisheries. We analyse trends in catches …

Deposit-and suspension-feeding sea cucumbers (Echinodermata) ingest plastic fragments
ER Graham, JT Thompson - Journal of experimental marine biology and …, 2009 - Elsevier
Weathering of plastic bottles, bags, fishing line, and other products discarded in the ocean
causes tiny fragments to break off. These plastic fragments may accumulate biofilms, sink …
