On the imbalance between production and exploitation of marine fish assemblages: a case study from the Celtic Seas
Richard Law, Kennedy Edeye Osuka, Jon W. Pitchford…·Nicola Walker
The paper examines the exploitation ratios of demersal fish species in the Celtic Seas and finds no evidence that rarer species have lower exploitation ratios than common ones, suggesting current management methods are insufficient for conserving the assemblage as a whole.
