We explore ways to localize global goals of human well-being and environmental health by accessing the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the context of the Pacific.
Environmental conditions of deep-sea corals were monitored to reveal patterns that can be considered in relation to what is known about the life history of deep-sea corals and how they might influence community settlement, growth, and diversity.
Many global fisheries have transitioned to rights-based management to improve bioeconomic outcomes, but several fishing communities have experienced negative social impacts.
Researchers consider the management of Atlantic Menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) as a case study of the challenges in transitioning to ecosystem approach to or ecosystem based fisheries management and develop a tool to facilitate the transition.
Menhaden is an abundant and important clupeid fish show a large variety in number of fish that survive to enter a fishery (recruitment). The underlying drivers and spatial patterns of variability are not well understood but researched in this study.
