Artificial reefs in the Philippines
Type: Conference Proceedings
This workshop and the resulting proceedings came into being as a result of cumulative concerns by aid agencies, nongovernmental organizations and by government authorities and researchers on the mass installation of artificial ...
The management of coral reef resource systems
Type: Conference Proceedings
This volume reports the proceedings of a scientific meeting to identify ways in which international collaborative efforts in coral reef research and management can be coordinated of greatest effect. A secondary objective ...
Settlement, movement and early juvenile mortality of the yellowtail snapper Ocyurus chrysurus
Type: Journal Article
The yellowtail snapper Ocyurus chrysurus is one of the most important and heavily targeted reef fishery species in the Caribbean. In this study, we investigate the first month of post-settlement life in shallow seagrass ...
Artificial Reef Project, Thailand
Type: Report
A review of the fishery in the Gulf of Thailand is presented which notes that the current level of trawling effort is excessive and suggests that a substantially lower trawling effort would probably improve the total ...
The status of stocks of groupers and hinds in the Northeaster Caribbean
Type: Book Chapter
A survey was made of the status of stocks of groupers and hinds (Family Serranidae) in the northeastern Caribbean, principally in January and February 2003, coinciding with the principal spawning season of most species. ...
Use of light-attracted zooplankton for rearing post-settlement coral reef fish
Type: Book Chapter
Settlement stage Lutjanus synagris and Ocyurus were caught in light traps set off fore reefs in the British Virgin Islands and raised in floating mesh cages tethered in water 1-2 m deep. Lights were designed to attract ...
Coral reef fisheries and world fish production
Type: Journal Article
The potential productivity of coral reefs is discussed, considering problems involved in the different types of the reefsituations. The overall result is that coral reef fish on a world-wide basis are under-exploited.
Assessment and management of coral reef fisheries: biological, environmental and socio-economic aspects
Type: Book Chapter
The authors opened discussion by briefly summarising the main points in their paper. Coral reefs occurred predominantly in developing countries and coral reef fisheries were predominantly artesanal. Fishery yields varied ...
Some advances and developments in coral reef fisheries research: 1973-1982
Type: Book Chapter
The objective of this paper is to identify and discuss areas in which significant progress has been made in the last 10 years towards an understanding of the fundamental processes governing the productivity of coral reef ...
Low cost light traps for coral reef fishery research and sustainable ornamental fisheries
Type: Journal Article
Two relatively inexpensive light traps to capture pre-settling reef fish and invertebrates are described. A trap made from a plastic bucket (with plastic bottles, a small plastic waste bin and two sheets of plywood) that ...
