The Spatial Expansion and Ecological Footprint of Fisheries (1950 to Present)
TL;DR: The growth in marine fisheries catches for more than half a century was only made possible through exploitation of new fishing grounds and their rapidly diminishing number indicates a global limit to growth and highlights the urgent need for a transition to sustainable fishing through reduction of PPR.
Journal ArticleDOI
The trophic fingerprint of marine fisheries
Trevor A. Branch,Reg Watson,Elizabeth A. Fulton,Simon Jennings,Simon Jennings,Carey R. McGilliard,Grace T. Pablico,Daniel Ricard,Sean R. Tracey +8 more
TL;DR: It is found that catch MTL does not reliably predict changes in marine ecosystems, and therefore greater efforts are recommended to measure true abundance trends for marine species, especially those most vulnerable to fishing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of elliptical Fourier analysis of otolith form as a tool for stock identification
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce the method of elliptical Fourier analysis using two widely separated populations of striped trumpeter (Latris lineata) as a case study and compare the interpretation of results based on both unconstrained and constrained ordination techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
When is a fishery sustainable
Ray Hilborn,Elizabeth A. Fulton,Elizabeth A. Fulton,Bridget S. Green,Klaas Hartmann,Sean R. Tracey,Reg Watson +6 more
TL;DR: Despite the many scientific and public discussions on the sustainability of fisheries, there are still great differences in both perception and definition of the concept as mentioned in this paper, and most authors now suggest t...
Journal ArticleDOI
Marine foods sourced from farther as their use of global ocean primary production increases
Reg Watson,Gabrielle B. Nowara,Klaas Hartmann,Bridget S. Green,Sean R. Tracey,Chris G. Carter +5 more
TL;DR: The ocean's ability to meet its future demands to 2100 is examined and it is found that even with mariculture supplementing near-static wild catches the authors' growing needs are unlikely to be met without significant changes.
