Holes in the Policy Net: An Analysis of Sustainable Food Production in Artisanal Fishing Communities and Policy Challenges to Ensure Long-Term Food Security in Sofala Bank, Mozambique

World Sustainability Series, 2022
Climate change impacts and industrial fishing put pressure on local communities globally. Mozambique is projected to become one of the most vulnerable countries globally to resource scarcity and climate-related disasters, making food security a future policy focus.

Research assessment for the management of the industrial shallow-water multi-species shrimp fishery in Sofala Bank in Mozambique

Fisheries Research, 2006
The industrial shallow-water shrimp fishery at Sofala Bank whose annual average catch of 8600 t is valued at about US$ 80 million, is one of the main industries in Mozambique. The shrimps are also fished by an artisanal and semi-industrial fishery.

Variation in shrimp abundance on the Sofala Bank, Mozambique, and its relation to the Zambezi River runoff

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 1992
Variations in the catch of shallow water shrimp at the Sofala Bank, central Mozambique, are considered using abundance indices of Penaeus indicus by length groups. Both monthly, seasonal and year to year fluctuations are presented and related to Zambezi River runoff and rainfall.

River Runoff and Shrimp Abundance in a Tropical Coastal Ecosystem — the Example of the Sofala Bank (Central Mozambique)

1986
Abundance indices of the shallow-water shrimp Penaeus indicus in Central Mozambique were analyzed by length groups, and related to Zambezi runoff on a year-to-year basis for the period 1974–1983. The Zambezi outflow seems to influence the recruitment strength P.indicus either by directly affecting the number of recruits or by inducing changes in the ...

The wind-driven response of the Zambezi River plume along the Sofala Bank: A numerical model study

Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2021
Abstract The Zambezi River plume constitutes a sizable feature in the horizontal distribution of both surface salinity and suspended sediments, and it spreads both downstream and upstream, influencing substantially the coastal ecosystems. Here we present the results of several numerical experiments conducted using the Regional Oceanic Modeling System,

Morphology of the Zambezi River plume in the Sofala Bank, Mozambique

2015
In this paper, hydrographic data collected in the vicinity of the Zambezi River plume between 2004-2007 is discussed alongside historical data to infer the plume morphology. The sampling plan called for 73 CTD stations that were interspersed with sampling of shrimp recruitment.

Biology, fisheries and distribution ofThryssa vitrirostris(Gilchrist & Thompson 1908) and other Engraulidae along the coast of the Sofala Bank, western Indian Ocean

African Journal of Marine Science, 2011
The Sofala Bank (16°–21° S) forms a major discontinuity in the gradients of engraulid distribution along the south-eastern African coast. Although the number of species declines southwards, the density and the catches of species associated with higher turbidity increases within the bank, particularly for Thryssa vitrirostris and a few other Thryssa and

Vertical Migration of Gold-spot Herring (Herklotsichthys quadrimaculatus) Larvae on Sofala Bank, Mozambique

2012
Vertical larval fish movement influences their survival and dispersal, hence recruitment variability. This study presents the vertical behaviour of gold-spot herring (Herklotsichthys quadrimaculatus) larvae observed on the Sofala Bank (Mozambique) throughout a 48-hour period when depth-stratified samples were taken every 2 h, together with CTD profiles,

Environmental influences on banana shrimps of the Sofala Bank, Mozambique Channel

2015
The Sofala Bank in the western Mozambique Channel is an essential habitat for shallow-water penaeid shrimps. It supports an important multi-sector and -species fishery, with Fenneropenaeus indicus and Metapenaeus monoceros (banana shrimp) being the two main target species.
