Abstract:
... This paper investigates fishery governance in Tonlé Sap, Cambodia, with a specific focus on fishery management since 1963 and recent determinants of political participation. The research suggests that the policy reforms leading to the implementation of open-access fisheries have not produced satisfactory outcomes due to inequitable access to fishery resources. The results of statistical analyses r ...

Abstract:
... Short‐lived, fast‐growing species that contribute greatly to global capture fisheries are sensitive to fluctuations in the environment. Uncertainties in exact stock–environment relationships have meant that environmental variability and extremes have been difficult to integrate directly into fisheries management. We applied a management strategy evaluation approach for one of Australia's large pra ...
... Specification of how selectivity (the combination of availability and vulnerability) is modelled in integrated stock assessments is key to avoiding bias in estimates of quantities of management interest. Many “rules of thumb” are common in the community but these have yet to be rigorously tested. This paper uses simulation to compare 12 approaches for specifying selectivity in an age-structured in ...

Abstract:
... Co‐management—fisher participation in fisheries management—varies across two fundamental dimensions. The most commonly addressed is a ‘ladder of participation’ reflecting the degree to which decision‐making is shared between government and fishers. The other dimension reflects if, and how, co‐management is implemented across the ‘management spectrum’ of functional components of management: (1) dir ...

Abstract:
... AIS data provide a good data source for revealing the distribution of marine fishing activities, assessing marine ecological pressure, and formulating and improving fishery regulation measures. In this study, a method of rapidly mapping fishing grounds was proposed, which combined Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) with Hot Spot Analysis (HSA). Then, taking the coastal sea area around the Bohai Strai ...

Abstract:
... The sea cucumber Parastichopus regalis is a fished resource in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea but there are no studies about its reproductive biology. The aim of the present study is to characterize the reproductive ecology of P. regalis including its sex ratio, a description of the gonad and the reproductive cycle to help the implementation of a sustainable exploitation plan. A total of 1728 ...

Abstract:
... The kelp (Lessonia nigrescens, species complex) resource is, in economic and social terms, one of the main benthic fisheries in northern Chile. The fishery for this resource is artisanal in character and operates under a free access regime. However, in response to increasing market demand extractive activity has expanded from the collection of dead plants to direct extraction. This resource has bi ...

Abstract:
... The locations of marine ranch and its surrounding islands are far away from the mainland, so the cost is too high to keep power supply by laying submarine cables from the mainland. Therefore, it is necessary to build a land-sea relay networked microgrids with high proportion of renewable energy, which is able to provide multi-energy complementary and reliable power for marine ranch and its surroun ...

This paper constructs a three-party evolutionary game model of fishermen, consumers and the government, analyzes the influence of each subject's behavior probability on the strategies of other subjects and the stability of the system. Then we simulate the effects of government su ...

Abstract:
... The effect of stock enhancement on increasing biomass is not well understood and is highly controversial because released fish might have a competitive impact on wild stocks. Quantitative assessments exploring the possible impacts of stock enhancement on population dynamics are rare, especially in data-limited fisheries. We developed a state-space production model incorporating stock enhancement t ...

Abstract:
... Some macro-benthic organisms, such as macroalgae, bryozoans, sponges, and gorgonian corals, can create heterogeneous frameworks of habitats in the surrounding seabed. Such frameworks are important benthic ecosystems, but knowledge of them is fairly limited in the Arabian Gulf, the hottest sea in the world. In this study, the presence of macroalgae, bryozoans, sponges, and gorgonian corals was disc ...

Abstract:

We simulated process and observation errors, and the biomass index (e.g., catch-per-unit-effort) data using actual data on fishery yields of Korean chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus), which fluctuated during 1976–201 ...

Abstract:
... It is widely recognized that participation in producer groups is advantageous for smallholders who must deal with complex production and marketing constraints and dynamic business environments. However, available data on this process are scarce in the fishery sector, while existing evidence is limited by smallholders’ potential self-selection into producer groups. This study, therefore, examined t ...

Abstract:
... The Gulf of Riga stock of Baltic herring (Clupea harengus membras L.) has been maintained through several management tools. One such tool is the restriction of vessels’ main engine power (<221 kW). This restriction was implemented in the early 1990s and is based on the vessel types available in the area and on the assumption that the gear size used in trawl fishery depends on the vessel size (powe ...

A mangrove ecosystem encompasses two environments, a larger flooding area with a characteristic wetland forest, and a less flooded area, more saline with little or no vegetation cover, known as hypersaline tidal flats (apicuns). Cardisoma guanhumi is a non-abundant, semi-terrestrial crab that lives mainly in apicuns. This environment is smaller and less impacted in comparison with mangrove forests ...

With revitalizing the institutional arrangements and redirecting the focus, the Indian shrimp industry can flourish just by adapting to the needs of the local demand, even when the export prospects are uncertain. This paper takes a historical perspective of Indian shrimp farming and exports and suggests a d ...

Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis), originating from Yangcheng Lake, are prime counterfeiting targets for the same reasons. Foreign crabs that are cultured briefly in the lake, known as “bathed” crabs, are illegally marketed as natives, negatively impacting the pr ...

Abstract:
... Adjusting the composition of species in production (i.e., product switching) is a strategy commonly adopted by fishers to mitigate income fluctuations. However, the overall effects of such strategies on individual fishers' economic performance are not well understood. This article examines how catch, revenue and productive efficiency are associated with product switching in the presence of a major ...

Abstract:
... Aquaculture is growing post-haste in recent years particularly in the fish and shrimp production. The rapid growth of aquaculture and increasing demand for fish have led to a rapid development of the fish and shrimp industry, resulting in increased production of both fish and shrimps. As a result, there is a greater risk of disease outbreaks. Mass mortalities in aquaculture are primarily due to in ...
