Description Not Available
Scientists predict two possible futures for
EBFM that are not mutually exclusive. The
core elements of EBFM, getting singlespecies
fishing mortalities right, reducing bycatch,
and protecting sensitive habitats, are
widely accepted, being implemented, and
are reasonably inexpensive. This will mean
lowering fishing mortality on all species
below the levels that produce MSY and
probably lowering even more the
exploitation rates on forage species. Various
agencies are now using ecosystem
indicators to modify their regulations.
Essentially, ecosystem impacts of competition
and predation are ignored when singlespecies
assessments are used on a standalone
basis. This aspect of EBFM could
Significantly modify management since the
US and many other countries use estimates
of unfished biomass when making harvest
decisions
