A model for studying how destructive fishing practices may affect commercial fish stocks through their effect on habitat is presented. It may be used both for renewable habitat-types, like eelgrass (Zostra marina) or sponges, and also practically non-renewable habitats like corals. The model demonstrates the trade-offs between using destructive and...
