درباره این کتاب:
The core of a
multibillion dollar sport fishing
industry, tarpon and bonefish, two of the
earth’s oldest creatures, are experiencing
obvious and precipitous population
decline. Experienced anglers in the
Florida Keys suggest a drop of
approximately 90-95 percent for the
bonefish population over the last 65
years. Despite the economic value of the
industry and scientific value of these
ancient fish, very little information is
available about their movements and
migrations, population dynamics, life
histories, and reproductive habits.
With contributions from some of the
world’s leading experts, Biology and
Management of the World Tarpon and
Bonefish Fisheries synthesizes existing
scientific literature, presents new
perspectives, and introduces original
scientific research to guide fishery
management and conservation efforts for
building sustainable fisheries. Divided
into five sections, the book begins with
an overview of the state of the world’s
fisheries for tarpon and bonefish. The
second section reviews the biology and
life history dynamics of these fish with
contributions on conservation genetics,
reproductive biology and early life
development, as well as resolving gaps in
evolutionary lineage and taxonomy.
Covering population dynamics and resource
ecology, the third section discusses
migratory patterns and the use of tagging.
Highlighting the lore and appeal of these
fascinating sport fish, the book concludes
by introducing a myriad of proposals
designed to improve fishery sustainability
by conducting census, enforcing
catch-and-release programs, and supporting
science-based management decision making.
Promoting a better understanding of the
biological and fishery management issues
that are paramount to the sustainable
future of these valuable fishery
resources, Biology and Management of the
World Tarpon and Bonefish Fisheries
provides a foundation for discussion and
broad communication about the past present
and future of these magnificent sport
fish.
