Using Data-Limited Methods to Assess the Status of Bartail Flathead Platycephalus indicus Stocks in the Bohai and Yellow Seas

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
We applied Catch and Maximum Sustainable Yield (CMSY), Bayesian Schaefer model (BSM), and Abundance Maximum Sustainable Yield (AMSY) methods to estimate the status of Platycephalus indicus stocks in the Bohai and Yellow Seas, assessed model performance ...

How to make socio‐environmental modelling more useful to support policy and management?

open access: yesPeople and Nature, 2021
Dynamic process‐based modelling is often proposed as a powerful tool to understand complex socio‐environmental problems and to provide sustainable solutions as it allows disentangling cause and effect of human behaviour and environmental dynamics ...

Effects of stochasticity and social norms on complex dynamics of fisheries [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 103, 022401 (2021), 2020
Recreational fishing is a highly socio-ecological process. Although recreational fisheries are self-regulating and resilient, changing anthropogenic pressure drives these fisheries to overharvest and collapse. Here, we evaluate the effect of demographic and environmental stochasticity for a social-ecological two-species fish model.

A Dynamic Model of Mesh Size Regulatory Compliance

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 2010
This paper employs a dynamic model for crimes that involve time and punishment to analyze the use of a net with illegal mesh size in a management regime where each community claims territorial use right over a fishery but has a discount rate that may ...

Geographic variation in gene flow from a genetically distinct migratory ecotype drives population genetic structure of coastal Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L.)

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2022
Identifying how physical and biotic factors shape genetic connectivity among populations in time and space is essential to our understanding of the evolutionary trajectory as well as the management of marine species.

Exploring the effect of the spatial scale of fishery management [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 390:14-22, 2016, 2015
For any spatially explicit management, determining the appropriate spatial scale of management decisions is critical to success at achieving a given management goal. Specifically, managers must decide how much to subdivide a given managed region: from implementing a uniform approach across the region to considering a unique approach in each of one ...
