We present a computational model of fishing fleet dynamics for the Queensland coral reef line fishery. The model runs in a two dimensional space with agents moving between port and the collection of available reefs. The model of rationality is based on the haystack models of game theory, such that the agents are aware of what other boats are doing and seek to maximise yield with consideration o...
Coral reefs face a diverse array of threats, from eutrophication and overfishing to climate change. As live corals are lost and their skeletons eroded, the structural complexity of reefs declines. This may have important consequences for the survival and growth of reef fish because complex habitats mediate predator-prey interactions [1, 2] and influence competition [3-5] through the provision o...
Length-Based Assessment of Coral Reef Fish Populations in the Main and Northwestern Hawaiian Islands
The coral reef fish community of Hawaii is composed of hundreds of species, supports a multimillion dollar fishing and tourism industry, and is of great cultural importance to the local population. However, a major stock assessment of Hawaiian coral reef fish populations has not yet been conducted. Here we used the robust indicator variable "average length in the exploited phase of the populati...
Marine fish abundance and distribution often varies across spatial scales for a variety of reasons, and this variability has significant ecological and management consequences. We quantified the distribution of reef-associated fish species along the southeast United States Atlantic coast using underwater video survey samples (N = 4,855 in 2011-2014) to elucidate variability within species acros...
Coral reef fish assemblages are threatened globally, underscoring the need for data-driven management to reduce threats and restore populations. Comparing fishery approaches is aided by a detailed understanding of key factors controlling species’ abundances. The aims this study were assess importance biophysical compared with fishing impacts on biomass fishes Florida’s Reef evaluate potential e...
Palinurid lobsters are being exploited with increasing intensity in coral reef ecosystems, but marine protected areas may play a key role in preventing overfishing and local extinctions. In order to define the spatial requirements for protection, we compared the spatial and temporal patterns in distribution, density, biomass, size structure, and reproductive seasonality of Caribbean spiny lobst...
We documented the nearshore ray-finned fishes in Puerto Morelos Reef National Park (PMRNP) by sampling 57 localities, including rocky intertidal pools, sandy bottoms, Thalassia beds, coral reefs, artificial karstic-slab demersal-pelagic areas, and sessile- Sargassum patches. recorded seven species new to Caribbean Mexican waters one hundred six PMRNP, most of which are small cryptobenthic reef ...
Numerous threats impact coral reefs and conservation actions are urgently needed. Fast production of marine habitat maps promotes the use of habitat-only conservation plans, where a given percentage of the area of each habitat is set as conservation objectives. However, marine reserves can impact access to fishing grounds and generate opportunity costs for fishers that need to be minimized. In ...
Small-scale and artisanal fisheries for sharks exist in most inshore, tropical regions of the world. Although often important in terms of food security, their low value and inherent complexity provides an imposing hurdle to sustainable management. An observer survey of a small-scale commercial gill-net fishery operating within the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage area revealed at least 38 spec...
