Influence of El Niño-Southern Oscillation on Bigeye and Yellowfin Tuna Longline Catch per Unit Effort in the Equatorial Pacific

In this study, we investigate the statistical relationships between past ENSO conditions and equatorial fisheries using the Multivariate ENSO Index, sea surface temperature (SST), and catch and effort records from the longline fisheries in the region.
