dc.description.abstract | Mangroves are critically important habitats for fisheries, both
for their resident fish, crustacean, and mollusk populations and as nursery
grounds for the target species of offshore fisheries. However, the spatial variation
in the benefits provided by mangroves to fisheries is poorly understood.
Based on expert knowledge of mangrove ecology and fisheries biology, we developed
a preliminary model of the spatial distribution of benefits to fisheries
from mangroves. The preliminary model covers the environmental factors that
determine the amount of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and other fishery target
species produced by mangrove areas (termed “potential fish production”) and
the socioeconomic variables that determine the level of fishing in any given location.
The combination of these two outputs gives the predicted catch. Potential
fish production is predicted to be highest where there is high freshwater and
nutrient input to mangroves, such as in large estuaries. At large seascape scales,
total mangrove area is also an important driver. Fishing effort is highest close
to human populations, which provide both the fishers and the markets for their
catch. The model is qualitative and has not been parameterized with field data
and, as such, should only be considered as a first step towards understanding
the spatial variation in the benefits that mangroves provide to fisheries. | |
