Fish and Fisheries is an interdisciplinary journal covering fish biology, fisheries and aquaculture – from molecular biology & genetics to behavior & conservation.
Discards are predominantly associated with catches in EEZ waters, which account for 93%–98% of total global discards since 1950 (Figure 4 f). However, the share of discarding in high seas waters has increased gradually over this time, from around 1% in 1950 to 6% by 2014.
Since the beginning of the 21st century, electronic monitoring (EM) has emerged as a cost-efficient supplement to existing catch monitoring programmes in fisheries. An EM system consists of various activity sensors and cameras positioned on vessels to remotely record fishing activity and catches.
This paper aims to highlight the risk of climate change on coupled marine human and natural systems and explore possible solutions to reduce such risk. Specifically, it explores some of the key responses of marine fish stocks and fisheries to climate change and their implications for human society. It highlights the importance of mitigating ...
Using recent co-governance developments for fisheries management and spatial protections involving federal, provincial and Indigenous governments in Pacific Canada, we illustrate how the precautionary approach, including reference points and harvest control rules broadly applied in international fisheries, could be revised to make collaborative ...
We summarize the roles of different research fields contributing to fish passage research, evaluate what fundamental knowledge and tools are required to implement effective fish passage solutions, explore promising new approaches to better support natural fish movements in catchments impacted by humans and propose measures needed to facilitate ...
Fisheries is one of the sectors most vulnerable to climate change because of its sensitivity to environmental conditions and substantial role in feeding people and supporting livelihoods. The industry is crucial for the nutrition and food security of the growing world population.
Fully embracing the concept of Two-Eyed Seeing at the same scale as the range of fish species, fisheries and/or management areas would require coordination of many Indigenous peoples and other interests spanning many governments and knowledge types.
Artificial intelligence methods, like machine learning and computer vision, can be used to rapidly analyse data, and integrated processing and analysis of large quantities of near real-time, georeferenced data can enable management at more relevant spatial and temporal scales.
Preference, avoidance, motivation and their importance to fish welfare. Fish and Fisheries is an interdisciplinary journal covering fish biology, fisheries and aquaculture – from molecular biology & genetics to behavior & conservation.
