BALTIMORE, Md. โ December 8, 2014 โ The following was released by The National Aquarium:
The National Aquarium released today a new report, โAddressing Uncertainty in Fisheries Science and Management,โ which contains the results from a year-long investigation into fisheries science and management practices.
An Aquarium-led panel of scientists and fisheries managers used case studies, consultations and expert deliberations to produce this set of findings, best practices and recommendations. The report, along with full examination of case studies and appendices, can be found at www.aqua.org/fisheries.
โRecognizing the many concerns that exist around uncertainty in the management process, we developed recommendations for understanding, communicating and better addressing uncertainties in fisheries science and management,โ said Eric Schwaab, project leader and National Aquarium Chief Conservation Officer.
