Sustaining Marine Fisheries explores the nature of marine ecosystems and the complex interacting factors that shape their productivity. The book documents the condition of marine fisheries today, highlighting species and geographic areas that are under particular stress. Challenges to achieving sustainability are discussed, and shortcomings of existing fisheries management and regulation are examined. The volume calls for fisheries management to adopt a broader ecosystem perspective that encompasses all relevant environmental and human influences. Sustaining Marine Fisheries offers new approaches to building workable fisheries management institutions, improving scientific data, and developing management tools. The book recommends ways to change current practices that encourage overexploitation of fish resources. It will be of special interest to marine policymakers and ecologists, fisheries regulators and managers, fisheries scientists and marine ecologists, fishers, and concerned individuals. 606 $aSustainable fisheries 606 $aFishery management 606 $aMarine ecology 615 0$aSustainable fisheries. 615 0$aFishery management. 615 0$aMarine ecology. 676 $a639.3/2 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Ecosystem Management for Sustainable Marine Fisheries. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957620103321 996 $aSustaining marine fisheries$94356023 997 $aUNINA
