Book Synopsis Sustainable Fishery Systems by : Anthony Charles
Download or read book Sustainable Fishery Systems written by Anthony Charles and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-30 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive attempt to adopt an 'integrated' interdisciplinary approach to the study of fisheries. Fisheries are discussed as holistic 'systems', with emphasis on their structure, operation and dynamics. The book's interdisciplinary approach is applied to an analysis of problems faced in pursuing 'sustainable fisheries', with emphasis on six dominant themes: sustainability, uncertainty, complexity, conflict, fishing rights and the nature of management. Within this discussion, several major directions in current fishery thinking are explored, notably the precautionary approach, the ecosystem approach, co-management, and robust management for resilient fisheries.
Book Synopsis Fisheries Oceanography by : Paul Harrison
Download or read book Fisheries Oceanography written by Paul Harrison and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 2000-10-10 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are some marine fish super abundant, attracting the attention of commercial fisheries? The full answer to this question can only be found by looking not just at biological aspects, such as reproduction and population dynamics, but also at the surrounding oceanic conditions, by analysing physical, chemical, geomorphological and other data. The sciences of fisheries and oceanography have in the past followed separate developments, but with the advent of the new science of fisheries oceanography, oceanographic information is being used to solve ecological problems in fisheries. Fisheries Oceanography provides thorough coverage of the major aspects of this important subject. The editors of this text book have drawn together an impressive list of contributing authors who offer vital insights into early life history, migration, genetic variability, climate change effects, models and the use of satellites in fisheries oceanography. An important aspect of the book is the inclusion of chapter commentaries by leading world authorities. The book concludes with an overview of problems facing fisheries, and how fisheries oceanography can be utilized to resolve some of these problems in the future. Fisheries workers, oceanographers and marine scientists will find a great deal of current information vital to their work in Fisheries Oceanography. As a text book it will be of great use to all those studying and researching marine fisheries, including BSc, MSc and other postgraduate students particularly in fisheries, fish biology, marine biology, oceanography and ecology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluctuations and declines in marine fish populations have caused growing concern among marine scientists, fisheries managers, commercial and recreational fishers, and the public. Sustaining Marine Fisheries explores the nature of marine ecosystems and the complex interacting factors that shape their productivity. The book documents the condition of marine fisheries today, highlighting species and geographic areas that are under particular stress. Challenges to achieving sustainability are discussed, and shortcomings of existing fisheries management and regulation are examined. The volume calls for fisheries management to adopt a broader ecosystem perspective that encompasses all relevant environmental and human influences. Sustaining Marine Fisheries offers new approaches to building workable fisheries management institutions, improving scientific data, and developing management tools. The book recommends ways to change current practices that encourage overexploitation of fish resources. It will be of special interest to marine policymakers and ecologists, fisheries regulators and managers, fisheries scientists and marine ecologists, fishers, and concerned individuals.
Book Synopsis Fish Conservation by : Gene S. Helfman

Book excerpt: Fish Conservation offers, for the first time in a single volume, a readable reference with a global approach to marine and freshwater fish diversity and fishery resource issues. Gene Helfman brings together available knowledge on the decline and restoration of freshwater and marine fishes, providing ecologically sound answers to biodiversity declines as well as to fishery management problems at the subsistence, recreational, and commercial levels. Written in an engaging and accessible style, the book: considers the value of preserving aquatic biodiversity offers an overview of imperiled fishes on a taxonomic and geographic basis presents a synthesis of common characteristics of imperiled fishes and their habitats details anthropogenic causes of decline examines human exploitation issues addresses ethical questions surrounding exploitation of fishes The final chapter integrates topics and evaluates prospects for arresting declines, emphasizing the application of evolutionary and ecological principles in light of projected trends. Throughout, Helfman provides examples, explores case studies, and synthesizes available information from a broad taxonomic, habitat, and geographic range. Fish Conservation summarizes the current state of knowledge about the degradation and restoration of diversity among fishes and the productivity of fishery resources, pointing out areas where progress has been made and where more needs to be done. Solutions focus on the application of ecological knowledge to solving practical problems, recognizing that effective biodiversity conservation depends on meeting human needs through management that focuses on long term sustainability and an ecosystem perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nineteen seventy-one marks the hundredth anniversary of the first programs of fishery research and management by the Federal Government. President Grant signed legislation in 1871 establishing the United States Fish Commission. During the 100 years that followed, Federal fishery programs have grown but at times these programs have been placed in different organizations of the Government under different titles. In October 1970, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was established in the United States Department of Commerce. Most of the programs of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries and the marine game fish research program of the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife of the Department of the Interior were transferred to NOAA The National Marine Fisheries Service is now the entity in NOAA responsible for Federal activities in marine fisheries. This volume was prepared by the former Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, and thus is concerned with marine and fresh-water commercial fishing activities.
