An analysis of fishing gear competition. Catalan fisheries as case studies

Scientia Marina, 2013
An asymmetric index was developed to measure the competition relationships among fishing fleets (or gears or métiers) in a multispecies fishery. This index can be used to measure the degree of dominance of each fleet and its level of independence from ...

How Can We Reduce the Overexploitation of the Mediterranean Resources?

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Based on the characteristics of the fishing sector (multispecies and multi-gears) and the stock status of main resources (overfishing and overexploitation), some suggestions to improve the sustainability of demersal and small pelagic fisheries in the ...

‘Reported’ versus ‘likely’ fisheries catches of four Mediterranean countries

Scientia Marina, 2014
The fisheries catch statistics that member countries report annually to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations were compared, for the years 1950 to 2010, with ‘reconstructed’, and more likely catch data from the Mediterranean coasts ...
