Depletion-based stock reduction analysis: a catch-based method for determining sustainable yields for data-poor fish stocks
EJ Dick, AD MacCall - Fisheries Research, 2011 - Elsevier
We describe a method for determining reasonable yield and management reference points
for data-poor fisheries in cases where approximate catches are known from the beginning of …

Increasing biological realism of fisheries stock assessment: towards hierarchical Bayesian methods
Excessively high rates of fishing mortality have led to rapid declines of several commercially
important fish stocks. To harvest fish stocks sustainably, fisheries management requires …

Reproductive hyperallometry and managing the world's fisheries
Marine fisheries are an essential component of global food security, but many are close to
their limits and some are overfished. The models that guide the management of these …

Saving large fish through harvest slots outperforms the classical minimum‐length limit when the aim is to achieve multiple harvest and catch‐related fisheries …
We address the problem of optimal size‐selective exploitation in an age‐structured fish
population model by systematically examining how density and size dependency in growth …

A perspective on steepness, reference points, and stock assessment
We provide a perspective on steepness, reference points for fishery management, and stock
assessment. We first review published data and give new results showing that key reference …

Atlantic bluefin tuna: a novel multistock spatial model for assessing population biomass
Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) is considered to be overfished, but the status of its
populations has been debated, partly because of uncertainties regarding the effects of …

Towards defining good practices for modeling time-varying selectivity
S Martell, I Stewart - Fisheries Research, 2014 - Elsevier
Abstract Changes in the observed size-or age-composition of commercial catch can occur
for a variety of reasons including: market demand, availability, temporal changes in growth …

Decision analysis for designing marine protected areas for multiple species with uncertain fishery status
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are growing in popularity as a conservation tool, and there
are increasing calls for additional MPAs. Meta‐analyses indicate that most MPAs …

Performance of alternative harvest control rules for two Pacific groundfish stocks with uncertain natural mortality: bias, robustness and trade-offs
RE Forrest, KR Holt, AR Kronlund - Fisheries Research, 2018 - Elsevier
Harvest control rules (HCRs) are used in fisheries management to reduce fishing mortality
as the level of perceived risk to the fish stock increases. This is typically done by adjusting …
