The total coastal mainland population is 73,000, and only ten out of all the islands are inhabited with a total...
Modern fisheries management is strongly based on ecosystem theory. Ecosystem management involves direct manipulation of the habitat and population as well as human activity in order to optimize sustainable returns to humans. The ecosystems approach is widely viewed as a new concept in management of fisheries and aquaculture. Ecosystems based...
Ecosystems are one of the most productive fishing grounds in the world, with important commercial and valuable fish stocks. However, overfishing, IUU activities, discards, habitat destruction and alteration of the biogeochemical conditions of the ecosystem combined with an increase in fish demand continue to drive fisheries to an alarming situation....
The need for management of the marine ecosystem using a broad perspective has been recommended under a variety of names. This paper uses the term Ecosystem Management, which is seen as a convergence between the ecological idea of an organisational hierarchy and the idea of strategic planning with a planning...
The main objectives assigned to ecosystemic indices are to fuel the debate on the best ways to reduce the impact of global warming. Fishing activities are also concerned with the debate. The assessments carried out about fish products show that the use of fuel in the fishing stage has the...

Marine conservation measures such as moratoriums challenge the economics of fisheries. Efficiency of moratoriums depends on the acceptation by fisheries of such conservation measures. If the measure is unaccepted by fisheries the moratorium is not respected which leads the stock to extinction. The purpose of this article is to identify...
Self-management has been recognized as important in successfully governing the common pool resources. This is no exception in fishery. Fishery cooperatives, where fishermen collectively manage the fishery, are garnering much attention from both regulators and academics. In this study, we aim to empirically disentangle the efficiency mechanism of pooling system....
