Disentangling the socio-ecological drivers behind illegal fishing in a small-scale fishery managed by a TURF system [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
A substantial increase in illegal extraction of the benthic resources in central Chile is likely driven by an interplay of numerous socio-economic local factors that threatens the success of the fisheries management areas (MA) system. To assess this problem, the exploitation state of a commercially important benthic resource (i.e., keyhole limpet) in ...

Cost-benefit analysis of ecosystem modelling to support fisheries management [PDF]

Mathematical and statistical models underlie many of the world's most important fisheries management decisions. Since the 19th century, difficulty calibrating and fitting such models has been used to justify the selection of simple, stationary, single-species models to aid tactical fisheries management decisions.

Global Fishing Watch: Bringing Transparency to Global Commercial Fisheries [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
Across all major industrial fishing sectors, overfishing due to overcapacity and lack of compliance in fishery governance has led to a decline in biomass of many global fish stocks. Overfishing threatens ocean biodiversity, global food security, and the livelihoods of law abiding fishermen.

Climate change impacts and adaptation of commercial marine fisheries in Australia: a review of the science

Climatic Change, 2014
Commercial marine fishing contributes significantly to the Australian economy, and has great importance for coastal communities. However, climate change presents significant challenges for Australia’s fishing industries, now and into the future.

Effects of Marine Reserve Creation in Single Species and Prey-Predator Models [PDF]

arXiv
Single species fisheries and prey-predator models with marine protected areas (MPA) are studied. The single species case is considered when the fishing effort is around the species extinction threshold and the influence of implementing MPA on catch quantity are studied.

Governance of marine fisheries and biodiversity conservation: interaction and coevolution

, 2014
Governance of Marine Fisheries and Biodiversity Conservation explores governance of the world’s oceans with a focus on the impacts of two inter-connected but historically separate streams of governance: one for fisheries, the other for biodiversity ...

Joint model for zero-inflated data combining fishery-dependent and fishery-independent sources [PDF]

arXiv
Accurately identifying spatial patterns of species distribution is crucial for scientific insight and societal benefit, aiding our understanding of species fluctuations. The increasing quantity and quality of ecological datasets present heightened statistical challenges, complicating spatial species dynamics comprehension.
