Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Contemporary fishery management has become a priority worldwide due to the exploitation of fish stocks, although ongoing climate change and its influence on fisheries’ resources is equally considered. For the sustainable management of an exploited fishery, it is imperative to study its biology and ecology, which could be used either in assessing the stock or providing a basis for fishery management strategies. Such studies are usually based on the available data, the best available methods, and/or the knowledge about the biology of considered species along with their ecosystem. Once the stock status is assessed, decision makers are responsible for the definition, evaluation, and adoption of management measures. This Special Issue focuses on the theme of “Fisheries Biology, Ecology and Sustainable Management” to bring together the latest insights on the topic. We hope that the cognitive science community will find this Special Issue to be an informative and useful collection of articles.
