A Review of Some Pelagic Fish Stocks in Other Areas

Abstract

"In addition to their immediate interest for a better utilization of fish resources, investigations into the factors that determine the collapses frequently observed in pelagic fisheries have a direct bearing on the understanding of some of the key problems which fishery science is facing today, namely, the determination of the shape and variability of the stock-recruitment relationship and its effects on the longterm, natural variability of fish stocks."
