Evaluating the spatio-temporal impacts of environmental, political and economic changes on the stocks of Northeast Atlantic mackerel and North Sea herring and fisheries
The future availability of fisheries resources is highly dependent on international coordination of management decisions, environmental conditions as well as fleet behaviour. Managing straddling and transboundary stocks (i.e. crossing Exclusive Economic Zone boundaries into adjacent international wa...

The future availability of fisheries resources is highly dependent on international coordination of management decisions, environmental conditions as well as fleet behaviour. Managing straddling and transboundary stocks (i.e. crossing Exclusive Economic Zone boundaries into adjacent international waters) is currently especially difficult due to many changes. Two such stocks, that are highly valuable for European fleets and provide many job opportunities, are the Northeast Atlantic (NEA) mackerel (Scomber scombrus) and North Sea autumn spawning (NSAS) herring (Clupea harengus) stocks. Current conflicts resulting from lack of management coordination or changes in environmental conditions seem, however, to threaten the status of those two stocks. These, in turn, can massively impair the livelihood of European fleets and corresponding employees targeting NEA mackerel and NSAS herring. It is therefore important to evaluate the effects of new management measures and other major impact factors on both the resource availability as well as the fleet behaviour as they are interdependent. Dynamic bio-economic models are now more commonly used as tools for fisheries management.
