Indicators of stock status for large-pelagic fish based on length composition from driftnet fisheries in Zanzibar

open access: yesWestern Indian Ocean Journal of Marine Science, 2018
Small-scale fisheries (SSF) contribute to approximately half of the total landings of tuna and tuna-like species in the Indian Ocean and are an important form of employment and source of protein. Research into the properties and dynamics of SSF in East Africa are important for the assessment and sustainable management of fish stocks, however, detailed ...

The Fishing Ground of Large Pelagic Fish during the Southeast Monsoon in Indonesian Fisheries Management Area-713

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
Abstract Large pelagic fish (LPF hereafter) is an important group of fishes targeted by local fishermen in the Indonesian Fisheries Management Area-713 (IFMA-713). This IFMA includes the Makassar Strait, Flores Sea, Bali Sea, and Gulf of Bone. The objective of this study was to identify the preferred oceanographic conditions based on LPF
