description: Covering the basics as well as introducing modern procedures, Fisheries Biology and Stock Assessment emphasizes the processes involved in biological and fishery data collection and presents the fundamental concepts-population biology, ecology, and quantitative analysis-that underlie sound fisheries stock assessment practices. Illustrated by examples from both temperate and tropical regions, this book combines traditional stock assessment procedures with ecological analysis. Accessible to those in a wide range of disciplines, readers will be able to determine the status and dynamics of an exploited stock and to apply the appropriate model to determine the sustainability of a fishery.
