  2. Sustainable yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_yield

    Sustainable yield is the amount of a resource that humans can harvest without over-harvesting or damaging a potentially renewable resource. [1]In more formal terms, the sustainable yield of natural capital is the ecological yield that can be extracted without reducing the base of capital itself, i.e. the surplus required to maintain ecosystem services at the same or increasing level over time. [2]

  3. Maximum sustainable yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_sustainable_yield

    The maximum sustainable yield is the largest yield that can be taken from a population at equilibrium. In figure 3, if H {\displaystyle H} is higher than H 2 {\displaystyle H_{2}} , the harvesting would exceed the population's capacity to replace itself at any population size ( H 3 {\displaystyle H_{3}} in figure 3).

  4. Sustainable yield in fisheries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_yield_in_fisheries

    The concept of maximum sustainable yield (MSY) has been used in fisheries science and fisheries management for more than a century. Originally developed and popularized by Fedor Baranov early in the 1900s as the "theory of fishing," it is often credited with laying the foundation for the modern understanding of the population dynamics of fisheries. [1]

  5. Ecological yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecological_yield

    Ecological yield is the harvestable population growth of an ecosystem. It is most commonly measured in forestry : sustainable forestry is defined as that which does not harvest more wood in a year than has grown in that year, within a given patch of forest .

  6. Sustainable fishery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_fishery

    Three ways of defining a sustainable fishery exist: Long term constant yield is the idea that undisturbed nature establishes a steady state that changes little over time. Properly done, fishing at up to maximum sustainable yield allows nature to adjust to a new steady state, without compromising future harvests. However, this view is naive ...

  8. Optimum sustainable yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimum_sustainable_yield

    In environmental science, optimum sustainable yield is the largest economical yield of a renewable resource achievable over a long time period without decreasing the ability of the population or its environment to support the continuation of this level of yield, and enables an ecosystem to have a high aesthetic value.
