I-4. Comment: Collaboration on fisheries oceanography between governmental institutions

Ecosystem oceanography for global change in fisheries.

Overexploitation and climate change are increasingly causing unanticipated changes in marine ecosystems, such as higher variability in fish recruitment and shifts in species dominance. An ecosystem-based approach to fisheries attempts to address these effects by integrating populations, food webs and fish habitats at different scales. Ecosystem models represent indispensable tools to achieve th...

Visualization in fisheries oceanography: new approaches for the rapid exploration of coastal ecosystems

Powerful new measurement technologies and numerical models are rapidly expanding our three-dimensional knowledge of the ocean and its biota. The effective visualization of this expanding database is not trivial, and its use in fisheries oceanography presents special challenges. Oceanic circulation and the life experience of marine fish are irrefutably three dimensional; despite this fact, most ...
