View article: Global fisheries sustainability performance data collected from pre-assessments against the Marine Stewardship Council’s fisheries standard
Global fisheries sustainability performance data collected from pre-assessments against the Marine Stewardship Council’s fisheries standard Open
The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is an international non-profit organization that sets a Fisheries Standard [1] for environmentally sustainable fishing, based on the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations' Code o…

Comparing voluntary and government-mandated management measures for meeting sustainable fishing targets Open
Management of natural resources and environmental systems has often involved top-down approaches in which government agencies set and enforce regulations on extractive activities. More recently, market-driven approaches were introduced to …

The MSC approach for developing harvest strategies and harvest control rules for Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) Open
Well-designed and robust harvest strategies are a key governance tool to achieve long term sustainability of target stocks. In some fisheries, however, such as those governed by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs), the deve…

Drivers of success, speed and performance in fisheries moving towards Marine Stewardship Council certification Open
With growing concerns about global overfishing, market‐based eco‐certification programs like the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) can incentivise adoption of sustainable practices. Several studies investigated drivers of improvement in mar…

Disentangling global market drivers for cephalopods to foster transformations towards sustainable seafood systems Open
Aquatic food systems are important contributors to global food security to satisfy an intensifying demand for protein‐based diets, but global economic growth threatens marine systems. Cephalopod (octopus, squid and cuttlefish) fisheries ca…

Method evaluation and risk assessment: A framework for evaluating management strategies for data‐limited fisheries Open
Fisheries managers are in need of quantitative tools to inform decisions regarding selection of robust management practices, prioritising research gaps and stocks to focus on, particularly where there are limited resources or data. To supp…

Quantifying fish range shifts across poorly defined management boundaries Open
Management regimes of marine resources that rely on spatial boundaries might be poorly adapted to climate change shifts in species distributions. This is of specific concern for the management of fish stocks that cross management jurisdict…
View article: Wild-caught fish populations targeted by MSC-certified fisheries have higher relative abundance than non-MSC populations
Wild-caught fish populations targeted by MSC-certified fisheries have higher relative abundance than non-MSC populations Open
Requirements for a fishery to achieve Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification include demonstrating that targeted populations (‘MSC stocks’) are fished at sustainable levels. The credibility of this claim can be evaluated by compari…

Illuminating the mechanisms to mitigate forced and child labour risks within Marine Stewardship Council certified fisheries Open
Growing concern about forced and child labour abuses in the fishing industry has led to calls to integrate social issues within the sustainable seafood sector. While abusive labour practices in fisheries are increasingly studied, and conse…

Social and Economic Outcomes of Fisheries Certification: Characterizing Pathways of Change in Canned Fish Markets Open
The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) eco-labeling program provides fisheries a pathway to demonstrate their sustainability by undergoing an environmental certification. Like other standard-setters, the MSC’s ‘theory of change’ presumes tha…

A future for seafood point-of-origin testing using DNA and stable isotope signatures Open
Demand for seafood products is increasing worldwide, contributing to ever more complex supply chains and posing challenges to trace their origin and guarantee legal, well-managed, sustainable sources from confirmed locations. While DNA-bas…

A Perspective on the Role of Eco-Certification in Eliminating Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing Open
Illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing activities threaten marine biodiversity, livelihoods, food security, and human rights across the globe. Often occurring in waters that are difficult to control, and across multi-sector, tra…

Understanding societal approval of the fishing industry and the influence of third‐party sustainability certification Open
Commercial fisheries are increasingly interested in greater social acceptance of their operations and practices. For harvesters, achieving acceptance is complex because expectations arise from many societal groups who can differ greatly in…
