Close cooperation between science, management and industry benefits sustainable exploitation of the Falkland Islands squid fisheries a
The Falkland Islands fishing industry is unique, as 60–80% of its annual catch consists of two squid species, Illex argentinus and Doryteuthis gahi . Short annual life cycles make both species susceptible to intra‐annual environmental changes, resulting in large biomass fluctuations that must be add...
