Download or read book Fishing Fleet Profiling Methodology written by Jocelyne Ferraris and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2002 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fishing fleet profile aims to assist in understanding the complexity and structure of fisheries from a technical and socio-economic point of view, or from the point of view of fishing strategies. A profile consists of analysing the characteristics of individual units of the fleet, for example the boats, in order to classify these units. This document describes the steps necessary to produce such a profile, from planning and the implementation of the fleet survey, through data processing to the presentation of the results. The processes of analysis, classification and description require the application of specific statistical methods in order to extract the items of information. Various methods of data analysis are presented here in order to demonstrate their potential uses and relevance to different situations. The Moroccan inshore fishery and the Senegalese small-scale fisheries have been used as examples in this document (FAO Website).

[Author] [Author]. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing indicators apply readily available data and straightforward calculations to measure something that provides insight into – but does not actually estimate – the level of IUU fishing. In doing so, indicators aim to evaluate and monitor performance in combating IUU fishing, including highlighting where improvements in monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) systems are needed. Since they are easy to update and track over time, indicators offer an alternative to often resource-intensive quantitative IUU fishing estimation methods, and can be adapted across a broad range of fisheries. This document reviews various types of indicators and develops a universal framework based on detection, coverage and investment indicators for IUU fishing. It then presents four hypothetical case studies, illustrating how these indicators can be applied to different fisheries with different IUU fishing risks. Guidance is provided for customizing indicators to individual fisheries and for interpreting various combinations of indicators moving in different directions. However, IUU fishing problems can have multiple drivers, take various forms and produce mixed signals, making it difficult to provide interpretive guidance that is appropriate for all situations. For this reason, a variety of recommendations are presented for engaging stakeholders and drawing inferences from similar fisheries.

Working Party on Small-Scale Fisheries and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2004 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The session agreed on a vision statement and on a characterization of small-scale fisheries as well as on a research agenda of five main themes. It elaborated preliminary drafts of two separate technical documents on the contribution, role and importance of small-scale fisheries and research agenda for small-scale fisheries and requested that the documents be submitted, after finalization by the Secretariat, to the ACFR at its next session
Download or read book Improving our knowledge on small scale fisheries data needs and methodologies written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small-scale fisheries play an important role in contributing to food security, nutrition, livelihoods and local and national economies. However, there is often limited data and information available (or not easily accessible) on their contributions, and hence small scale fisheries tend to be overlooked and marginalized in policy processes, leading to low levels of support for the sector. The Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and P overty Eradication (the SSF Guidelines), adopted by the FAO Committee on Fisheries (COFI) in 2014, provide a policy framework for how to ensure sustainability for small-scale fisheries through a holistic and integrated approach. However, this transformational process needs substantial support to take place and be successful, which may be difficult to obtain in the absence of better data and information on the socio-economic contributions of small-scale fisheries. For this reason, a new study has been proposed by FAO and WorldFish to build upon the 2012 World Bank, FAO and WorldFish Center report Hidden Harvest: The Global Contribution of Capture Fisheries. The new study would deepen the knowledge and encourage data-sharing on small-scale fisheries and their socio-economic contributions, and also aim to make policy- and decision-makers aware of the sector’s importance.

Book excerpt: The important contribution of fi sheries to human well-being is frequently underestimated. This report highlights that contribution. The report focuses on small-scale fi sheries and developing countries because the livelihoods of 90 percent of the 120 million employed in fi sheries are in the small-scale fi sheries, and almost all of those workers, 97 percent, live in developing countries. Many small-scale fi shing communities have high levels of poverty, and poverty reduction is a core focus of the contributing partners to the report.

This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the 3R concept applied to wastewater treatment and resource recovery under a double perspective. Firstly, it deals with innovative technologies leading to: Reducing energy requirements, space and impacts; Reusing water and sludge of sufficient quality; and Recovering resources such as energy, nutrients, metals and chemicals, including biopolymers. Besides targeting effective C,N&P removal, other issues such as organic micropollutants, gases and odours emissions are considered. Most of the technologies analysed have been tested at pilot- or at full-scale. Tools and methods for their Economic, Environmental, Legal and Social impact assessment are described. The 3R concept is also applied to Innovative Processes design, considering different levels of innovation: Retrofitting, where novel units are included in more conventional processes; Re-Thinking, which implies a substantial flowsheet modification; and Re-Imagining, with completely new conceptions. Tools are presented for Modelling, Optimising and Selecting the most suitable plant layout for each particular scenario from a holistic technical, economic and environmental point of view.
