Book Synopsis The Future of Bluefin Tunas by : Barbara A. Block
Download or read book The Future of Bluefin Tunas written by Barbara A. Block and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most thorough and current account of scientific research on bluefin tunas—the largest, most sought-after tunas in the world Bluefin tunas are dominant keystone predators known for their impressive size, strength, endurance, and speed. Electronic tags have revealed that they can dive to great depths (over 6000 feet) and migrate vast distances—from frigid subpolar seas to warm tropical waters—for spawning. Prized for their rich taste and unique texture, bluefin tunas are also a worldwide commodity of great value. However, over the past few decades, overfishing throughout their range has led to significant population reductions. In The Future of Bluefin Tunas, Barbara A. Block brings together renowned bluefin experts from 15 different countries to share the latest information on the science, fisheries policy, and management decisions related to each of the three species within the Thunnus group—Atlantic, Pacific, and Southern. Synthesizing basic and applied research, the book delves into every aspect of these majestic fish, from their life history and genetic makeup to their ecology and migrations. Ichthyologists and marine scientists dedicated to the study of these fishes report on the latest stock assessments, explore the results of advances such as biologging and DNA sampling, and assess the potential of bluefin tuna aquaculture. The Future of Bluefin Tunas provides critical research findings to inform decisions that will impact tunas and the ocean ecosystems they affect. Scientists, fisheries managers, policymakers, and marine conservationists will take away key data from this timely volume to help them ensure these remarkable fish continue in perpetuity.
Book Synopsis Fisheries in the Pacific by : Elodie Fache
Download or read book Fisheries in the Pacific written by Elodie Fache and published by pacific-credo Publications. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fisheries in the Pacific: The Challenges of Governance and Sustainability is a multidisciplinary book, which examines various aspects of coastal and oceanic fisheries in Pacific waters. These interrelated fisheries sectors are critical for regional food security and also represent a reserve of food resources for the rest of the world. The introduction and eight chapters highlight that both these sectors raise major economic and ecological issues while revealing significant social changes, political asymmetries and alliances, geostrategic rationales, developments in legislation, customary dynamics, and conservation challenges. Through complementary approaches and interpretations of both quantitative and qualitative data, this book aims to contribute to a better understanding of the current situation of fisheries in the Pacific. It also responds to the compelling need to establish a constructive and ongoing dialogue on the matter between social scientists and environmental scientists, based in Europe and in the Pacific Islands, and between these experts and the various stakeholders and policy-making institutions involved in the Pacific region.

Book excerpt: “A necessary book for anyone truly interested in what we take from the sea to eat, and how, and why.” —Sam Sifton, The New York Times Book Review Acclaimed author of American Catch and The Omega Princple and life-long fisherman, Paul Greenberg takes us on a journey, examining the four fish that dominate our menus: salmon, sea bass, cod, and tuna. Investigating the forces that get fish to our dinner tables, Greenberg reveals our damaged relationship with the ocean and its inhabitants. Just three decades ago, nearly everything we ate from the sea was wild. Today, rampant overfishing and an unprecedented biotech revolution have brought us to a point where wild and farmed fish occupy equal parts of a complex marketplace. Four Fish offers a way for us to move toward a future in which healthy and sustainable seafood is the rule rather than the exception.

Book excerpt: Peter Wilson has played a key role in the development of the worlds largest and most important tuna resource in the Western Pacifi c. Aft er studying Japanese and Fisheries at the University of Washingtons College of Fisheries he became one of the initi al users of SCUBA gear for commercial fi shing. He was then hired by Bumble Bee Seafood Company to conduct fi sheries surveys in Japan, Okinawa, Palau, Palmyra, French Frigate Shoals, Johnston Island, Midway and elsewhere. Aft er establishing arti fi cial reefs in Guam and using explosives to create improved ocean circulati on in Tumon Bay for tourism development, he was retained by the Micronesian governments to head up fi sheries development for Palau, FSM and the Marshall Islands. During this period he established the fi rst commercial tuna fi shing operati on in the Western Pacifi c aft er WWII and dive industries in Palau and Truk (Chuuk). He then went to Oman to prepare a Five Year Fisheries Development Program and was then retained by FAO to serve as the Director of Fisheries and Advisor to Government of Papua New Guinea for seven years to head up their fi sheries operati ons, He then created Global Ocean Consultants and was then selected by the Republic of Maldives to establish a World Bank fi nanced tuna industry on a small atoll with no harbor, housing, power or water. GOC provided management and training services for fi ve years and during this period established a profi table cannery, can manufacturing plant, fi shmeal plant and brought producti on up to over 60 tons a day.

Download or read book Tuna Wars written by Steven Adolf and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-09 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, whenever tuna was hauled ashore, the sounds of battle were never far away. ‘Tuna Wars’ tells the untold story of the power struggles emerging around tuna, from the distant past to your present-day dinner table. In the ancient past, the giant tuna was the first fish to become the basis of a large-scale industry and a ‘global’ trade that created fortunes: Hannibal was able to finance his elephant campaign on Rome thanks to tuna. From the Middle Ages on, a tuna fishing monopoly on Spain’s southern coast allowed the nobility to completely dominate the area and even lead the ‘invincible’ Armada. When the markets for tuna increased exponentially thanks to technical advances, tuna eventually became a billion-dollar business and one of the most-consumed fish species worldwide. But this massive expansion came at a price. An 18th century monk in Madrid was the first to warn that tuna fisheries needed to be run sustainably for the sake of future generations. And the issue of sustainability would go on to become a game-changer in the modern tuna wars, characterized by new alliances and partnerships, hybrid warfare and commercial power struggles. In addition to accompanying you through the history of tuna and sharing insights into fisheries science and approaches to sustainably managing fisheries, Tuna Wars offers practical guidance on choosing sustainably fished tuna. In short, it will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about tuna, but were afraid to ask.

Download or read book Tuna written by Richard Ellis and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-07-14 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famed marine researcher and illustrator Richard Ellis brings us a work of scientific achievement that will forever change the way we think about fish, fishing, and the dangers inherent in the seafood we eat. The bluefin tuna is one of the world's biggest, fastest, and most highly evolved marine animals, as well as one of its most popular delicacies. Now, however, it hovers on the brink of extinction. Here Ellis explains how a fish that was once able to thrive has become a commodity—and how the natural world and the global economy converge on our plates. With updated information on mercury levels in tuna, this is at once an astounding ode to one of nature's greatest marvels and a serious examination of a creature and world at risk.
