Fisheries Science
A Global Assessment
By
Rory Curtis
Preface
Fisheries science is the scientific study of fisheries including their management and development. Fisheries science is a multidisciplinary field that integrates the concepts and principles from a range of subjects such as limnology, oceanography, freshwater biology, marine biology, etc. Fisheries research involves collection of water samples from different depths, acoustic fish finding techniques, etc. to develop a better understanding of the ecological aspects of fisheries. Fisheries can be categorized as saltwater, wild, freshwater or farmed. Tuna, cod, shrimp, crab, oyster, etc. are some of the commonly harvested species. This book essentially covers the crucial concepts related to this field while also discussing the recent advancements made in this field. It is compiled in such a manner that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of fisheries science. This book is an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.
This book unites the global concepts and researches in an organized manner for a comprehensive understanding of the subject. It is a ripe text for all researchers, students, scientists or anyone else who is interested in acquiring a better knowledge of this dynamic field.
