Abstract
  • Pursuit of the triple bottom line of economic, community and ecological sustainability has increased the complexity of fishery management; fisheries assessments require new types of data and analysis to guide science-based policy in addition to traditional biological information and modeling. We introduce the Fishery Performance Indicators (FPIs), a broadly applicable and flexible tool for assessing performance in individual fisheries, and for establishing cross-sectional links between enabling conditions, management strategies and triple bottom line outcomes. Conceptually separating measures of performance, the FPIs use 68 individual outcome metrics—coded on a 1 to 5 scale based on expert assessment to facilitate application to data poor fisheries and sectors—that can be partitioned into sector-based or triple-bottom-line sustainability-based interpretative indicators. Variation among outcomes is explained with 54 similarly structured metrics of inputs, management approaches and enabling conditions. Using 61 initial fishery case studies drawn from industrial and developing countries around the world, we demonstrate the inferential importance of tracking economic and community outcomes, in addition to resource status.

Funding Statement (additional comments about funding)
  • Initial development of the Fishery Performance Indicators was supported by grants from the International Coalition of Fisheries Associations (ICFA) under the Alliance for Responsible Fishing Program (ALLFISH) supported by The Global Environment Facility (GEF). Case studies and evaluation were partially funded by The World Bank under the Global Program for Fisheries (PROFISH), the US Department of Agriculture (Multistate project W2004), The Walton Family Foundation, USAID, and ICFA. MRAG Ltd provided support in the form of salaries for authors [Robert Arthur], but did not have any additional role in the study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript. The specific roles of these authors are articulated in the 'author contributions' section.
