[HTML][HTML] Fishery biomass trends of exploited fish populations in marine ecoregions, climatic zones and ocean basins
MLD Palomares, R Froese, B Derrick… - Estuarine, Coastal and …, 2020 - Elsevier
This contribution presents time series of the 'fishery biomass' of fish populations, defined as
the weight (whole-body, wet weight) of the in-water part of a fishable population, ie, that part …

A new approach for estimating stock status from length frequency data
This study presents a new method (LBB) for the analysis of length frequency data from
commercial catches. LBB works for species that grow throughout their lives, such as most …

Stock assessment models overstate sustainability of the world's fisheries
Effective fisheries management requires accurate estimates of stock biomass and trends;
yet, assumptions in stock assessment models generate high levels of uncertainty and error …

First large-scale eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea stock assessment reveals a dramatic decline
The Mediterranean Sea is classified as a “data-poor” region in fisheries due to its low
number of assessed stocks given its biodiversity and number of exploited species. In this …
