Local knowledge enhances the sustainability of interconnected fisheries

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our modelling approach allows managers to compare alternative conservation strategies under different socio‐ecological scenarios, highlighting trade‐offs and guiding investment of effort and resources. While immediately valuable for pirarucu management in the Middle Juruá, the framework scales across tiers of applicability, each requiring progressively
