Petrarch's Principle: how protected human‐made reefs can help the reconstruction of fisheries and marine ecosystems
TJ Pitcher, W Seaman Jr - Fish and fisheries, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
Petrarch's Principle, named here, is to know things unseen, yet to ignore things seen. We
apply the principle to the debate over the appropriate role and utility of human‐made reefs …
