Direct and ancillary benefits of ecosystem-based fisheries management in forage fish fisheries. [PDF]
AbstractNatural resource management is evolving toward holistic, ecosystem‐based approaches to decision making. The ecosystem science underpinning these approaches needs to account for the complexity of multiple interacting components within and across coupled natural–human systems. In this research, we investigate the potential economic and ecological

Ecoviability for ecosystem‐based fisheries management [PDF]
AbstractReconciling food security, economic development and biodiversity conservation is a key challenge, especially in the face of the demographic transition characterizing many countries in the world. Fisheries and marine ecosystems constitute a difficult application of this bio‐economic challenge.

Reference points for predators will progress ecosystem‐based management of fisheries [PDF]
AbstractEcosystem‐based management of fisheries aims to allow sustainable use of fished stocks while keeping impacts upon ecosystems within safe ecological limits. Both the FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries and the Aichi Biodiversity Targets promote these aims.

The Path to an Ecosystem Approach for Forage Fish Management: A Case Study of Atlantic Menhaden
Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) support the largest fishery by volume on the United States East Coast, while also playing an important role as a forage species. Managers’ and stakeholders’ increasing concerns about the impact of Atlantic menhaden

Defining the economic scope for ecosystem-based fishery management [PDF]
Significance Ecosystem-based fisheries management provides a framework for incorporating ecological linkages between fisheries into policymaking. However, relatively little attention has been given to economic linkages between fisheries: If fishers consider multiple fisheries when deciding where, when, and how much to fish, there is ...
