Author: Rademeyer, R ; Butterworth, Doug S ; Plagányi, Éva E Date: 2008 The bases for historical catch limits placed on the hake fishery are reviewed in brief for earlier years and then in some depth over the period from 1991 when the Operational Management Procedure (OMP) approach was introduced for this fishery. ...

Aspects of modelling Robben Island African Penguin Spheniscus demersus populations

Author: Plagányi, Éva E ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2006 Crawford et al. (2006) present relationships between the breeding success of Robben Island African penguins Spheniscus demersus and the abundances of both anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus and sardine Sardinops sagax. Based on their analysis, ... Read more
Assessing the adequacy of current fisheries management under changing climate: a southern synopsis

Author: Plagányi, Éva E ; Weeks, Scala J ; Skewes, Tim D ; Gibbs, Mark T ; Blamey, Laura K ; Soares, Muri ; Robinson, William M L ; Poloczanska, Elvira S ; Norman-Lopez, Anna Date: 2011 Climate change is likely to have a significant impact on both target and non-target marine stocks worldwide, with the concomitant need for management strategies capable of sustaining fishing in future. We use several southern hemisphere ... Read more

Assessment of the South African Hake resource taking its two-species nature into account

Author: Rademeyer, Rebecca A ; Butterworth, Doug S ; Plagányi, Éva E Date: 2008 The commercially valuable hake fishery off South Africa consists of two morphologically similar species, the shallow-water Cape hake Merluccius capensis and the deep-water Cape hake M. paradoxus. Because catch-and effort statistics collected ... Read more
A brief introduction to some approaches to multispecies/ecosystem modeling in the context of their possible application in the management of South African fisheries

Author: Butterworth, Doug S ; Plagányi, Éva E Date: 2004 Aspects of the potential application of multispecies/ecosystem modelling to advise the management of South African fisheries are discussed. In general, reliable predictive ability from such models is likely to be achieved sooner for top ... Read more
A comparison between ADAPT-VPA and ASPM-based assessments of the Gulf of Maine cod stock

Author: Butterworth, Doug S ; Rademeyer, Rebecca A ; Plagányi, Éva E Date: 2005 ADAPT-VPA and ASPM assessment methods are applied to the same data set for the Gulf of Maine cod stock to attempt to ascertain the reasons for the rather different results provided by past applications of the two approaches. A number of ... Read more
Conditioning SMOM using the agreed calendar of observed changes in predator and krill abundance: a further step in the development of a management procedure for krill fisheries in area 48

Author: Plagányi, Éva E ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2008 The updated version of the Spatial Multi-species Operating Model (SMOM) of krill-predatorfishery dynamics described in an accompanying paper is conditioned using the WG-SAM set of reference observations for Area 48 (the SAM calendar). Results ... Read more
A critical look at the potential of Ecopath with ecosim to assist in practical fisheries management

Author: Plagányi, Éva E ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2004 Ecosystem-orientated thinking is increasingly incorporated into fishery management. Given the complexity of ecosystem processes, there is a need to evaluate the tools used to steer this thinking critically. ECOPATH with ECOSIM (EwE), an ... Read more
Data inputs for the African Penguin Spheniscus demersus model to be coupled to the pelagic OMP

Author: Plagányi, Éva E ; Robinson, William Date: 2008 This document serves as an updated compilation of all data currently available as inputs to the African penguin spatial model which is to be coupled to the pelagic OMP. The data are presented here together with some comments as to how they ... Read more

Author: Plagányi, Éva E ; Ellis, Nick ; Blamey, Laura K ; Morello, Elisabetta B ; Norman-Lopez, Anna ; Robinson, William M L ; Sporic, Miriana ; Sweatman, Hugh Date: 2014 Ecological thresholds, associated with abrupt changes in the state and organisation of ecosystems, challenge both scientists and managers. Adaptive response to such changes, and planning for their occurrence, requires an understanding of the ... Read more
