No results found.While reviewing and editing these proceedings for publication we realized that we should include a brief statement of the present position of the investigations in fisheries and fisheries related science. This, we agreed, was necessary because of the distinctive and numerous specialized subjects that are dealt with in the papers included in these proceedings. We thought that any reader might benefit from a comparison of the past and present situation, and perhaps therefore obta in a better perspective on where or in which directions fishery research should be going. Several names of well known fishery scientists come to mind who might provide the critical, yet positive messages about what had or had not been done in the past, what needed attention now and perhaps directions to take in the future. To our surprise and satisfaction we found these kinds of messages clearly stated in an existing text. The following excerpts were even alre ady available under a chapter headed, “Review of the Present Position of Investigations”: “The study of methodically collected material, embracing a period of many years, has demonstrated the existence of an intimate relation between the fluctuations in the numerical value of the stock of fish and the yield of the great fisheries… -
Book (series)Technical reportInforme de la Consulta de Expertos Noruega-FAO sobre la Ordenación de Poblaciones de Peces Compartidas. Bergen, Noruega, 7 – 10 de octubre de 2002. 2002La Consulta de Expertos Noruega-FAO se celebró en reconocimiento del hecho de que la ordenación de los recursos pesqueros compartidos constituye uno de los grandes retos que se plantean en la tarea de lograr una pesca sostenible a largo plazo. La Consulta de Expertos examinó, en particular, la ordenación de las poblaciones de peces transfronterizas y transzonales. La Consulta de Expertos abordó directamente los problemas prácticos planteados por la ordenación de dichos recursos en el marco de la Convención de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Derecho del Mar, el Acuerdo de las Naciones Unidas sobre las poblaciones de peces y otros instrumentos internacionales aplicables. Como tal, la Consulta no tenía por objetivo recomendar soluciones, sino más bien servir de foro neutral en que pudieran examinarse con espíritu constructivo posibles opciones y sus repercusiones para la ordenación.

No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018. -
