CRG Seminar: Modelling Fish Stock Biomass Dynamics in a Multi-gear Fishery and Determining the Stock Status
Abstract: A marine fishery is an important sector in many countries as it contributes towards the nutritional requirements of people and provides income and employment to the associated population. Compared to other natural resources fish being a living resource has the capacity for rebuilding through reproduction. Sustainable management of the marine fishery resources is very important to avoid resource depletion as well as collapse. Biomass of individual species needs to be estimated and its dynamics have to be studied regularly…
