Simulating the Effect of Seasonal Fishing Moratorium on the Pearl River Estuary Coastal Ecosystem for Fisheries Strategies Exploration

Creator:: Duan, Lijie, Li, Shiyu, Liu, Yu, Wang, Ying, Failler, Pierre, Christensen, Villy, and Moreau, Jacques
Abstract:: The coastal ecosystem of the Pearl River Estuary (PRE) has been overfished and received a high level of combined pollution in the past decades. The fisheries stock assessments have shown a declining population and have led to a number of management measures, including fishing moratorium. This study evaluated the effect...

Is There a Need for New Models for Ocean Management?

Creator:: Failler, Pierre
Abstract:: World fisheries are characterized by ecological, economic and social costs which are not taken into account by current market mechanisms. However the sustainability of ecosystems and fishing activities depends on their taking into account in order to take the most suitable management decisions. Based on the consilience concept, the European...

A Feasibility Analysis of Implementing the Closed Fishing Seasons on the North-east Coastal Fisheries in Taiwan -- An Application of Fisheries Co-management

Creator:: Hao-Ting, Liu, Chuang, C. T., Lee, Y. H., and Chang, C. W.
Abstract:: The status of fisheries resources on coastal and offshore areas is getting worse in Taiwan. Thus, to establish a fishery resources management system has become the main task among stakeholders. In this study, we would like to examine the feasibility of imposing the community-based co-management system and setting closed fishing...

Can the Knowledge Society Turn Around 500 Years of Overfishing?

Creator:: Stern-Pirlot, Amanda and Froese, Rainer
Abstract:: As early as 1491 in an Act of Parliament during the reign of Henry VII of England, overfishing and the capture of juveniles were recognized as root causes of declining fish catches, and since then, minimum capture sizes, closed seasons and areas, and gear restrictions have been implemented to address...
