Figure 1. Who Eats How Much of WHAT? Estimated mean annual global catch/food consumption of marine mammals and fisheries by 9 major food types during an average year in the 1990s expressed as proportions of total (from Kaschner, 2004) 138. The percentages of different food types in marine mammal consumption were computed based on diet composition standardised across species 96. Corresponding pe...

There are tradeoffs in managing fisheries, and ideally such tradeoffs should be known when setting fisheries policies. An aspect of this, which is rarely considered, is the spin-off effect of different fisheries: the economic and social benefits that fisheries generate through processing through distribution and on to the end consumer. This study evaluated the benefits generated in the Peruvian...

This paper addresses the fisheries managementrelated knowledge of indigenous Islanders in Torres Strait, northern Australia. Islander knowledge will be situated both culturally and historically, before turning to the contemporary context of fisheries management and development. Islander fishermen have recently established dialogue with scientific fisheries managers; I argue that the success of ...

The Bohai Sea is one of the most important fisheries resources in China. Fisheries and mariculture are the main industries offering important food security by exploitation of migrating and stationary resources based on the same ecosystem in Bohai Sea. Understanding the potential bioeconomic interactions between fisheries and mariculture will provide the basis for fisheries and mariculture manag...

Mean trophic level (MTL) of landings and primary production required (PPR) by fisheries are increasingly used in the assessment of sustainability in fisheries. However, in their present form, MTL and PPR are prone to misinterpretation. We show that it is important to account for actual catch data, define an appropriate historical and spatial domain, and carefully consider the effects of fisheri...
