Fish population dynamics in tropical waters: a manual for use with programmable calculators
(1984)Type: Working PaperThis manual is a selection, from the entire field of fish population dynamics, of methods that are applicable totropical fish and fisheries and can be implemented with the help of programmable calculators. The methods ... -
Fish production, catches and the carrying capacity of the world oceans
(1995)Type: Journal ArticleA brief review of the status of the world fisheries is presented with emphasis on the differences between catches (= landings + bycatch), biological production of fish, and predation (= production - catches). The ECOPATH ... -
Fish stock assessment in coral reefs: notes on the state of the art
(1981)Type: Journal ArticleCoral reefs may produce as much as 10% of the annual world fish catch. Yet, very little investigation has been done on the biology of coral reef fishes, so that we know little about their growth rates and mortalities, vital ... -

Fisheries impact on the South China Sea large marine ecosystem: a preliminary analysis using spatially-explicit methodology
(2003)Type: Conference ProceedingsA multiple regression model is derived, based on biomass estimates in 16 massbalance food web (Ecopath) models, which explains 68 % of the variation in the data at hand, and shows that the abundance of fish with trophic ... -
Fisheries Resource Information System and Tools (FIRST) : user manual
(2001)Type: ManualThe User Manual of the Fisheries Resource Information System and Tools (FiRST) version 2000 documents the database system that was developed under ADB-RETA 5766. As envisioned, the database system contains extant trawl ... -
Fisheries resources management in Southeast Asia: why bothers?
(1989)Type: Book ChapterBecause, in general, the economies of Southeast Asian countries are "developing", policy-makers generally assume that the fisheries sector also needs to be "developed" through soft loans, tax rebates, construction of ports, ... -
Fishery statistics on the microcomputer: a BASIC version of Hasselblad's NORMSTEP program
(1986)Type: Journal ArticleThis paper provides an outline of a mathematical method to analyse overlapping normal distributions. Separations of mixtures of normal distributions is frequently required in fisheries biological analysis, as in the case ... -

Growth of the checkered puffer Sphoeroides testudineus: postscript to papers by Target and Pauly Ingles
(1991)Type: Journal ArticleJ. Ingles and D. Pauly presented at the Fourth International Coral Reef Symposium a seasonally oscillating growth curve for the puffer Sphoeroides testudineus (Tetraodontidae), based on length-frequency data collected in ... -
Growth performance in fishes: rigorous description of patterns as a basis for understanding causal mechanisms
(1991)Type: Journal ArticleThe origins and features of the growth performance index Phi ' are reviewed, emphasizing its ability to express the underlying common characteristics of a family of growth curves. Some other aspects of Phi ' are discussed, ... -
Growth, mortality and recruitment of commercially important fishes and penaeid shrimps in Indonesian waters
(1986)Type: ReportEstimates of von Bertalanffy growth parameters were derived through application of the ELEFAN I program to lengthfrequency data from 52 stocks and 36 species of commercially important bony fishes from Indonesian waters, ... -
Growth, reproduction and mortality of the sea hare Dolabella auricularia (Gastropoda: Aplysiidae) in the Central Visayas, Philippines
(1984)Type: Journal ArticleThe growth parameters W infinity and K of the von Bertalanffy growth equation were estimated from size-frequency data of the sea hare D. auricularia using an objective, computer-based method. The results obtained from two ... -
