Stock Identification Methods: Applications in Fishery Science By: Cadrin, Steven X.; Kerr, Lisa A.; Mariani, Stefano Publisher: Academic Press Print ISBN: 9780123970039, 0123970032 eText ISBN: 9780123970039, 9780123972583, 0123972582 Edition: 2nd Pages: 588 Format: PDF Available from $ 99.95 USD SKU: 9780123970039 Stock Identification Methods, 2e, continues to provide a comprehensive review of the various disciplines used to study the population structure of fishery resources. It represents the worldwide experience and perspectives of experts on each method, assembled through a working group of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea. The book is organized to foster interdisciplinary analyses and conclusions about stock structure, a crucial topic for fishery science and management. Technological advances have promoted the development of stock identification methods in many directions, resulting in a confusing variety of approaches. Based on central tenets of population biology and management needs, this valuable resource offers a unified framework for understanding stock structure by promoting an understanding of the relative merits and sensitivities of each approach. * Describes 18 distinct approaches to stock identification grouped into sections on life history traits, environmental signals, genetic analyses, and applied marks * Features experts' reviews of benchmark case studies, general protocols, and the strengths and weaknesses of each identification method * Reviews statistical techniques for exploring stock patterns, testing for differences among putative stocks, stock discrimination, and stock composition analysis * Focuses on the challenges of interpreting data and managing mixed-stock fisheries SKU: 9780123970039 Download now: https://ebookscoffee.sellpass.io/pr...ation-Methods-Applications-in-Fishery-Science
