Effective use of ecosystem and biological knowledge in fisheries (ECOKNOWS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
The general aim of the ECOKNOWS project is to improve the use of biological knowledge in fisheries science and management. The lack of appropriate calculus methods and fear of statistical overparameterisation has limited biological reality in fisheries models. This reduces biological credibility perceived by many stakeholders. We solve this technical estimation problem by using up-to date methodol ...

Interaction in coastal waters: A roadmap to sustainable integration of aquaculture and fisheries (COEXIST)
Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
"Coastal areas are subject to an increase in competing activities and protection (Natura 2000, Marine Strategy Directive) and are a source of potential conflict for space allocation. COEXIST is a broad, multidisciplinary approach to evaluate these interactions with the ultimate goal to provide a roadmap to better integration, sustainability and synergies among different activities in the coastal z ...

Forage Fish Interactions (FACTS)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"Removal of a forage fish has consequences for both predators and prey of forage fish. As everything is connected, every management action has a price which goes beyond the apparent, direct effect on the target species. The fishery on forage fish can therefore not be seen in isolation, as the immediate gain in profit from the fishery has to be discounted by the lowered potential for production of ...

Advancing understanding of Atlantic Salmon at Sea: Merging Genetics and Ecology to resolve Stock-specific Migration and Distribution patterns (SALSEA-Merge)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
Over the past two decades, an increasing proportion of North Atlantic salmon are dying at sea during their oceanic feeding migration. The specific reasons for the decline in this important species are as yet unknown, however, climate change is likely to be an important factor. In some rivers in the southern part of the salmons range, wild salmon now face extinction. This is in spite of unprecedent ...

The aim of the project is to examine, in co-operation with Finnish and Russian organisations and experts, the state of the shared endangered species and valuable natural environments, develop their conservation methods and utilize them, e.g. by means of nature tourism. Special attention will be paid to economic impacts †both to the economic benefit that is obtained from conservation and to poten ...
