No results found.The international symposium on “Inland Fisheries and aquaculture: advances in technology, stock assessment and citizen science in an era of climate change” was organized in conjunction with the thirty-first session of the European Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture Advisory Commission in Killarney, Ireland on 20–21 June 2022. The symposium was organized by Inland Fisheries Ireland and the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications. The symposium was attended by 105 participants from 14 countries. The main documentation comprised six invited papers and 35 experience papers and 15 posters. The symposium had five major themes, which were: (i) Inland fish stock assessment, (ii) Developments in freshwater fish monitoring technologies with an emphasis on non-destructive methods, (iii) The problems and challenges of climate change and its impacts on inland aquatic resources and fisheries, (iv) Citizen science, and (v) Aquaculture - traditional freshwater systems vs recirculation systems. The symposium provided valuable networking opportunities for the participating scientists, especially young scientists could share their research findings. Many promising studies and innovative technologies and methodologies were presented. This Occasional Paper in conjunction with a special issue of Fisheries Management and Ecology represents the proceedings of the symposium. The thirty-first session of EIFAAC, held in Killarney from 22 to 24 June 2022, discussed and endorsed the conclusions and recommendations from the symposium. -

No results found.The EAF-Nansen Programme, a collaboration between the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Norway, and various regional and national partners, promotes sustainable fisheries management through scientific research and data collection. Since 1975, the Programme has employed the research vessel Dr. Fridtjof Nansen to gather unique data on marine resources and ecosystems, contributing to the monitoring and assessment of fisheries while addressing global challenges like biodiversity conservation and climate change. Between 2017 and 2023, the EAF-Nansen Programme conducted 62 research surveys involving over 650 scientists, discovered 24 new species, and developed science-based fisheries management plans benefiting nine countries. The state-of-the-art Dr. Fridtjof Nansen research vessel not only gathers data but also serves as a training platform for researchers and early-career scientists. From 2017 to 2023, the Programme trained over 800 individuals in fisheries management, stock assessment, and research, significantly enhancing the capabilities of partner countries. The Programme's extensive data collections from marine areas worldwide are accessible to member countries and stakeholders through an online metadata portal. Moving forward, from 2024 to 2028, the EAF-Nansen Programme will intensify efforts to improve food and nutrition security, with a strong focus on adapting fisheries management to the impacts of climate change. -

Also available in:
No results found.The ASFIS Thesaurus has been conceived so as to correspond to the objectives of the ASFIS system. It permits the subject indexing and retrieval of information on all aspects of aquatic sciences and technology, exploitation of living and non-living resources, related policy, social and economic aspects, processing and marketing of aquatic products, as recorded and stored in the Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System's ASFA database. So far as can be ascertained, this is the only Thesau rus devoted to this broad field of knowledge. This Revision 3 supersedes the '”Thesaurus of Terms for Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries
