Simple Abundance Model

Single Species Models
  • Assessment models are biased because they do not
    incorporate the predation by other species.
  • Assessment models are limited because of their
    emphasis on equilibrium solutions, such as MSY.
  • Assessment models do not usually account for
    environmental changes, whether interannual or
    interdecadal.
  • A correct assessment approach requires that a
    multi-species framework be used.
  • Harvest recommendations from single-species
    assessment do not consider the needs of other
    species.
  • Harvest recommendations from single-species
    assessment involve the deliberate fishing down of
    a population and therefore adversely change the
    ecosystem.
  • The single-species approach is invalidated,
    because overfishing has occurred for at least a
    majority of the worlds fisheries.
  • Single-species approaches do not account for the
    indirect effects of fishing (e.g. bottom fishing
    on habitat quality).

Fisheries at the crossroad
  • Fisheries have significantly contributed to human
    development and can still do so
  • There are problem areas and avenues for positive
    change
  • Change will never be at no cost but.

The status quo is not an option !
