Journal ArticleDOI
Towards sustainability in world fisheries
Daniel Pauly,Villy Christensen,Sylvie Guénette,Tony J. Pitcher,U. Rashid Sumaila,Carl J. Walters,Reg Watson,Dirk Zeller +7 more
TL;DR: Zoning the oceans into unfished marine reserves and areas with limited levels of fishing effort would allow sustainable fisheries, based on resources embedded in functional, diverse ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rebuilding Global Fisheries
Boris Worm,Ray Hilborn,Julia K. Baum,Trevor A. Branch,Jeremy S. Collie,Christopher Costello,Michael J. Fogarty,Elizabeth A. Fulton,Jeffrey A. Hutchings,Simon Jennings,Simon Jennings,Olaf P. Jensen,Heike K. Lotze,Pamela M. Mace,Tim R. McClanahan,Cóilín Minto,Stephen R. Palumbi,Ana M. Parma,Daniel Ricard,Andrew Rosenberg,Reg Watson,Dirk Zeller +21 more
TL;DR: Current trends in world fisheries are analyzed from a fisheries and conservation perspective, finding that 63% of assessed fish stocks worldwide still require rebuilding, and even lower exploitation rates are needed to reverse the collapse of vulnerable species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale redistribution of maximum fisheries catch potential in the global ocean under climate change
William W. L. Cheung,William W. L. Cheung,Vicky W. Y. Lam,Jorge L. Sarmiento,Kelly A. Kearney,Reg Watson,Dirk Zeller,Daniel Pauly +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that climate change may lead to large-scale redistribution of global catch potential, with an average of 30-70% increase in high-latitude regions and a drop of up to 40% in the tropics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catch reconstructions reveal that global marine fisheries catches are higher than reported and declining
Daniel Pauly,Dirk Zeller +1 more
TL;DR: A decade-long multinational ‘catch reconstruction’ project covering the Exclusive Economic Zones of the world's maritime countries and the High Seas from 1950 to 2010, and accounting for all fisheries, suggests that catch actually peaked at 130 million tonnes, and has been declining much more strongly since.
Journal ArticleDOI
An index to assess the health and benefits of the global ocean

TL;DR: An index comprising ten diverse public goals for a healthy coupled human–ocean system and calculated the index for every coastal country provides a powerful tool to raise public awareness, direct resource management, improve policy and prioritize scientific research.
