Open WL Archief (OWA)

Over het archief

Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.

Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract

In La Paz Bay, two artisanal fisheries operate, one based on hook-and-line, targeting snappers and groupers, and the othermainly based on gillnets, targeting species such as tilefish and haemulids. A shrimp fishery, which is not permitted to expand, alsooperates. We analyzed various harvesting strategies with the Ecopath with Ecosim modelling software, using catch-and-effortdata for target species to fit simulated biomasses. Optimal harvesting strategies for artisanal fisheries were explored using social,economic and ecological criteria. Several harvesting strategies were simulated: continuation of the current state of the fisheries,optimizing economic and social (employment) criteria, using maximum sustainable yield (MSY) as a goal of management, andoptimization of an ecological criterion when necessary. Optimization of current fisheries and economic and social criteria, and theMSY resulted in depletion of some stocks and in no-realistic increases in fishing effort. Combinations of economic-ecological,social-ecological and economic-social-ecological criteria did not result in stock depletion. However, some of these scenariosresulted in unrealistic choices, especially large increases in gillnet fishing effort. Among the reasonable choices, a strategy ofincreasing the hook-and-line fishery effort by a factor of 1.5 and the gillnet effort by a factor of 2.8, appeared to be potentiallyapplicable, to increase efficiency of the artisanal fisheries.
