During 2022, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC) jointly undertook a project to identify and assess research and data from four Southeast Asian countries related to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicator 14.4.1 – the proportion of fish stocks within biologically sustainable levels. The goals of this project were: (1) to increase the visibility of research and datasets by making them searchable on OpenASFA, a system for creating, storing and publishing abstracts and bibliographic references; and (2) to analyse knowledge strengths and gaps in the region and make recommendations for improving the accessibility of research and data. This document presents the final report of the project, including the methodology, results and recommendations for future work.

La presente guía se desarrolla como una necesidad para orientar el registro de información estadística pesquera y el tratamiento de información biológico pesquera para abordar el análisis de pesquerías artesanales (pequeña escala) particularmente en condiciones de limitación de información; o más enfáticamente, en condiciones de nula existencia de datos. La guía inicia tocando tópicos sobre el diseño de muestreo, esencialmente probabilístico, considerando las características usuales en las pesquerías artesanales, múltiples estratos (p.ej. localidades) y etapas (proceso de operación de la pesca en cada localidad); así como la importancia del objetivo del diseño muestral,...
The Twelfth Session of the Fisheries and Resources Monitoring System (FIRMS) Steering Committee Meeting (FSC12) was held online from 18 to 21 October 2021. The FSC12 deliberated to proceed with the publishing of the Global Tuna Atlas developed with active contributions from the five tuna regional fishery management organizations (t-RFMOs), with the Global Record of Stocks and Fisheries (GRSF) towards validation of all records and their public dissemination, and with the integration of national Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 14.4.1 data into the GRSF. The FSC12 also considered a survey on the use of FIRMS by partners for strategic decisions for the 2020–30 decade.

'Introductory Dynamical Oceanography' 2nd ed provides an introduction to Dynamical Physical Oceanography at a level suitable for senior year undergraduate students in the sciences and for graduate students entering oceanography. It aims to present the basic objectives, procedures and successes and to state some of the present limitations of dynamical oceanography and its relations to descriptive physical oceanography. The first edition has been thoroughly revised and updated and the new work includes reference to the Practical Salinity Scale 1978, the International Equation of State 1980 and the beta-spiral technique for calculating absolute currents from the density distribution. In additio...

A comprehensive reference covering all aspects of the clinical management of adult and child dialysis patients. This edition includes seven new chapters including one on EPO use in dialysis patients and one on the HIV positive patient.
This is a new edition of the classic textbook on marine protected area (MPA) management in the tropics, originally produced as an output of the Bali World Parks Congress in 1982. Approaches to planning and managing MPAs have evolved considerably. Major advances include innovative financing mechanisms, partnerships with the private sector and NGOs, and collaborative management between government and coastal communities. These advances have brought new approaches for MPA establishment and management that are more participatory, involving communities through interaction and collaboration rather than prescription. With new case studies and illustrations, the guide comes in a water-resistant cover for field use. It is intended for those who plan individual and/or national MPA systems and gives philosophical context for MPAs along with some basic principles and approaches.
