Panic-based overfishing in transboundary fisheries by Vosooghi, S

“…A country that receives negative assessments about the current level of fish stock, may become ‘pessimistic’ about the assessment of the other coastal state, and this can ignite ‘panic-based’ overfishing. The paper examines the likelihood of overfishing and suggests a unique prediction about the possibility of abiding by bilateral fishing agreements. …”

Seagrasses in the Age of Sea Turtle Conservation and Shark Overfishing by Michael R Heithaus, Michael R Heithaus, Teresa eAlcoverro, Teresa eAlcoverro, Rohan eArthur, Derek A. Burkholder, Kathryn A. Coates, Marjolijn J. A. Christianen, Nachiket eKelkar, Sarah A. Manuel, Aaron J. Wirsing, W. Judson Kenworthy, James W Fourqurean, James W Fourqurean

“…Expanding turtle populations could improve seagrass ecosystem health by removing seagrass biomass and preventing of the formation of sediment anoxia. However, overfishing of large sharks, the primary green turtle predators, could facilitate turtle populations growing beyond historical sizes and trigger detrimental ecosystem impacts mirroring those on land when top predators were extirpated. …”

Small marine reserves do not provide a safeguard against overfishing by Diana E. LaScala‐Gruenewald, Roger V. Grace, Tim R. Haggitt, Benjamin J. Hanns, Shane Kelly, Alison MacDiarmid, Nick T. Shears

“…Abstract Marine reserves aim to protect harvested species within their boundaries and can therefore provide insurance against the effects of overfishing. To evaluate whether marine reserves are meeting this expectation, we compiled over 40 years of rock lobster (Jasus edwardsii) monitoring data and examined long‐term trends in three relatively small marine reserves (c.4–8 km2) in northern New Zealand, a region that has experienced large‐scale declines in the fishery over the last decade. …”

Demography of the largest and most endangered Brazilian parrotfish, Scarus trispinosus, reveals overfishing by Roos, NC, Taylor, BM, Carvalho, AR, Longo, GO

“…Many parrotfishes (Labridae: Scarinae) have life history traits, including late maturation and long lifespans, that make them vulnerable to overfishing. The greenbeak parrotfish Scarus trispinosus is the largest Brazilian endemic parrotfish and has been harvested in reef-associated fisheries along the coast. …”

Local overfishing may be avoided by examining parameters of a spatio-temporal model. by Stuart Carson, Nancy Shackell, Joanna Mills Flemming

“…Spatial erosion of stock structure through local overfishing can lead to stock collapse because fish often prefer certain locations, and fisheries tend to focus on those locations. …”
