Download or read book Shifting Baselines written by Jeremy B.C. Jackson and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-06-22 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shifting Baselines explores the real-world implications of a groundbreaking idea: we must understand the oceans of the past to protect the oceans of the future. In 1995, acclaimed marine biologist Daniel Pauly coined the term "shifting baselines" to describe a phenomenon of lowered expectations, in which each generation regards a progressively poorer natural world as normal. This seminal volume expands on Pauly's work, showing how skewed visions of the past have led to disastrous marine policies and why historical perspective is critical to revitalize fisheries and ecosystems. Edited by marine ecologists Jeremy Jackson and Enric Sala, and historian Karen Alexander, the book brings together knowledge from disparate disciplines to paint a more realistic picture of past fisheries. The authors use case studies on the cod fishery and the connection between sardine and anchovy populations, among others, to explain various methods for studying historic trends and the intricate relationships between species. Subsequent chapters offer recommendations about both specific research methods and effective management. This practical information is framed by inspiring essays by Carl Safina and Randy Olson on a personal experience of shifting baselines and the importance of human stories in describing this phenomenon to a broad public. While each contributor brings a different expertise to bear, all agree on the importance of historical perspective for effective fisheries management. Readers, from students to professionals, will benefit enormously from this informed hindsight.

This book was released on 2000-11-10 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress has promoted fisheries science for over a century and its involvement in fisheries management took a great leap forward with passage of the Fisheries Conservation and Management Act of 1976. In the past decade, Congress has requested advice from the National Research Council (NRC) on both national issues (e.g., individual fishing quotas and community development quotas) and the assessments related to specific fisheries (Northeast groundfish). This report was produced, in part, in response to another congressional request, this time related to the assessments of the summer flounder stocks along the East Coast of the United States. Following the initial request, the NRC, National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), and congressional staff agreed to broaden the study into a more comprehensive review of marine fisheries data collection, management, and use.

Don's three years of research for this book have included dozens of interviews with fishery managers and biologists around the country in order to provide a balanced perspective on the health of our marine fish populations. Our Fragile Coastal Fisheries Reviewer Comments: Dan Blanton - Morgan Hill CA - Author and Fishing Consultant "Whether you're an amateur conservationist or a hard-core degreed marine biologist, Our Fragile Coastal Fisheries by Don Phillips is a must read. It details in 10 chapters- ranging from The Ocean Environment to The Road to Recovery - volumes of useful information on the state of our coastal fisheries; where they've been, where they are and what their future holds. The book is a wonderful resource of detailed charts and statistics regarding both recreational and commercial fishing and their impacts upon our coastal fisheries. This book will leave you enlightened, but also with an ominous feeling that we need to change the way we humans are doing things, if our wondrous ocean fisheries are to survive mankind." Chico Fernandez - Miami FL - Author and Fishing Consultant "Don Phillips' Our Fragile Coastal Fisheries exposes us to a huge amount of neat and interesting information on the multi-dimensional problems of our coastal marine fisheries. A must-read for the angler who is truly concerned, and hopefully an inspiration for all of us to lend a hand in any way we can, before it's too late." Ken Hanley - Fremont, CA - Author & Environmental Educator "Education is the key to making good decisions. Don's impressive effort has given the public a valuable tool, to better understand our collective impact on coastal habitat and fisheries. His book showcases the issues everyone needs to address if we're to be effective stewards. It's not about pointing fingers....but, rather about building alliances and taking personal responsibility to achieve a common goal." Ken Hinman - Leesburg VA - Author and President, National Coalition For Marine Conservation "Don Phillips' new book rewards the reader with a wealth of knowledge and understanding of the coastal ecosystems that fish inhabit, and the profound ways in which man's activities affect them. It is a call for a broader approach to the way we manage our fisheries and for a deeper involvement from every one of us. Ultimately, Our Fragile Coastal Fisheries is about how the ocean gives us life, and how we must return the favor." Lefty Kreh - Hunt Valley, MD - Author & Fishing Consultant "Our Fragile Coastal Fisheries" is not a quick read. This book is crammed with incredibly detailed information concerning our threatened coastal fisheries. Everyone who fishes the inshore waters should read this book. But, more important, this is an astonishing tool for anyone who wants to understand the distressed condition of our inshore fisheries --- and how to combat many of the problems. Don Phillips has performed a real service for this resource and those who use or enjoy it." Dr. Carl Safina - Amagansett NY - Author and President of the Blue Ocean Institute "This book is much more than its title suggests. It is really an almanac that puts fishing in big-picture perspective. Its wide-ranging, context-setting information will make anglers smarter - and the fishing experience richer." Lou Tabory - Ridgefield, CT - Author and Fishing Consultant "This book contains a tremendous amount of information pertaining to the condition of our troubled fisheries. Phillips covers all the various effects that have altered the quality of our fishing.

Download or read book Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management written by Jason Link and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Responsible fisheries management is of increasing interest to the scientific community, resource managers, policy makers, stakeholders and the general public. Focusing solely on managing one species of fish stock at a time has become less of a viable option in addressing the problem. Incorporating more holistic considerations into fisheries management by addressing the trade-offs among the range of issues involved, such as ecological principles, legal mandates and the interests of stakeholders, will hopefully challenge and shift the perception that doing ecosystem-based fisheries management is unfeasible. Demonstrating that EBFM is in fact feasible will have widespread impact, both in US and international waters. Using case studies, underlying philosophies and analytical approaches, this book brings together a range of interdisciplinary topics surrounding EBFM and considers these simultaneously, with an aim to provide tools for successful implementation and to further the debate on EBFM, ultimately hoping to foster enhanced living marine resource management.
Download or read book Geographic Information Systems to Support the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries written by Fabio Carocci and published by Food & Agriculture Org. This book was released on 2009 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF) has been developed over the last decade in response to perceived and actual deficiencies in previous methods of management. The EAF recognises that fish are only one albeit important part of a much wider ecosystem incorporating an array of physical and biological components that humans interact with and exploit. Geographic information systems (GIS) are considered an ideal platform upon which to perform necessary information management and decision-support analysis for the implementation of an EAF. This technical paper is intended to be a guide to methods that readers could adopt for their own use of GIS for an EAF. The practical consideration are discussed and include hardware architecture, various software possibilities, sources and types of data that will be needed, and the array of backup and support that is available.
Download or read book Fishery Science written by Lee A. Fuiman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-02-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is now clear that data based on the studies of fish eggs and larvae make a number of unique contributions to fishery science that are crucial for accurate assessment and management of fish populations, including those of commercially important fisheries. This valuable book demonstrates why fish eggs and larvae are important, how the characteristics of early life stages require a somewhat different research approach and how information on early life stages can be applied and interpreted to yield unique insights into fish populations. The editors of Fishery Science have drawn together an extremely useful and well-written book with contributions from internationally respected researchers from North America, Asia and Europe. Chapters include a discussion of the unique nature of early life stages, age and growth, mortality, recruitment, populations analysis, habitats, human impacts and management. A carefully selected set of case studies demonstrates several specific applications of early life history information to a number of fishery problems. Fishery Science was designed to complement existing textbooks and is an essential purchase for all fisheries students and professionals, and for biologists working on the early life stages of fish. This exciting book is also of great value to ecologists, marine, freshwater and environmental scientists, populations biologists and oceanographers. All libraries in universities and research establishments where biological and fishery science are studied and taught should have copies of this book available on their shelves.
Download or read book Defining and Predicting Species environment Relationships written by Cordelia Holly Moore and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] The aim of this research was to define key species-environment relationships to better understand the spatial ecology of demersal fish. To help understand these relationships a combination of multivariate analyses, landscape analysis and species distribution models were employed. Of particular interest was to establish the scale at which these species respond to their environment. With recent high resolution surveying and mapping of the benthos in five of Victoria's Marine National Parks (MNPs), full coverage bathymetry, terrain data and accurate predicted benthic habitat maps were available for each of these parks. This information proved invaluable to this research, providing detailed (1:25,000) benthic environmental data, which facilitated the development and implementation of a very targeted and robust sampling strategy for the demersal fish at Cape Howe MNP. The sampling strategy was designed to provide good spatial coverage of the park and to represent the park's dominant substrate types and benthic communities, whilst also satisfying the assumptions of the statistical and spatial analyses applied. The fish assemblage data was collected using baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (stereo- BRUVS), with a total of 237 one-hour drops collected. Analysis of the video footage identified 77 species belonging to 40 families with a total of 14,449 individual fish recorded. ... This research revealed that the statistical modelling techniques employed provided an accurate means for predicting species distributions. These predicted distributions will allow for more effective management of these species by providing a robust and spatially explicit map of their current distribution enabling the identification and prediction of future changes in these species distributions. This research demonstrated the importance of the benthic environment on the spatial distribution of demersal fish. The results revealed that different species responded to different scales of investigation and that all scales must be ix considered to establish the factors fish are responding to and the strength and nature of this response. Having individual, continuous and spatially explicit environmental measures provided a significant advantage over traditional measures that group environmental and biological factors into 'habitat type'. It enabled better identification of individual factors, or correlates, driving the distribution of demersal fish. The environmental and biological measures were found to be of ecological relevance to the species and the scale of investigation and offered a more informative description of the distributions of the species examined. The use of species distribution modelling provided a robust means for the characterisation of the nature and strength of these relationships. In addition, it enabled species distributions to be predicted accurately across unsampled locations. Outcomes of the project include a greater understanding of how the benthic environment influences the distribution of demersal fish and demonstrates a suite of robust and useful marine species distribution tools that may be used by researcher and managers to understand, monitor, manage and predict marine species distributions.
