Have peak fishery production levels been passed in continental shelf areas? Some perspectives arising for historical trends in production per shelf
Trends in landings from global shelf areas (excluding the Arctic/Antarctic) for 1950– 94 are expressed per shelf surface of FAO Statistical Areas in four categories: "shelf-dependent " species (demersal fish plus commercial benthic invertebrates), "shelf-associ-ated " species (sm...
