Participatory approaches to improving recreational fisheries management in a remote island system

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Marine recreational fisheries management is often impacted by data deficiencies and conflicting stakeholder views. Using participatory approaches can help to increase fisher engagement and identify trade‐offs to boost future management. Social science tools, including scenario‐based approaches, were used to explore recreational fisheries on a remote ...

Comparing reef structure and mobile species assemblages at remnant and restored mussel reefs

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Mussel restoration aims to replicate natural processes of reef establishment. The similarities in mussel reef structure and large mobile species communities observed between remnant and restored mussel reefs in this study provide evidence that, in the absence of intact systems, remnant mussel reefs adjacent to temperate rocky reefs may be suitable as ...

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Fisher Behavior While Illegally Fishing for Atlantic Goliath Grouper (Epinephelus itajara, Epinephelinae) on the Amazon Continental Shelf, Brazil

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2002, the Brazilian government banned fishing for Goliath grouper, Epinephelus itajara (Lichtenstein, 1822), through 2007. This grouper was the first fish species targeted by a specific law in Brazilian environmental legislation. Grouper stocks showed no signs of recovery, so the ban was renewed multiple times since 2007. Official estimates

20 Years Later: Updated Stock Assessment of Snappers in Northeast Brazil Using an Integrated Stock Assessment Framework

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We updated the stock status of Lutjanus analis, Lutjanus jocu, Lutjanus synagris, and Ocyurus chrysurus harvested along the Brazilian northeastern coast. Stock boundaries were defined according to the Marine Ecoregion classifications at a finer scale, to reflect the population structure of each species.
