Abstract:
Sustainable, successful fisheries management must take changing ecosystem conditions and human behaviors into account. Subsequently, the inclusion of ecosystem and socioeconomic data in fisheries management has increasingly been sought by scientists, stakeholders, and policymakers. We are developing a standardized framework to facilitate the inclusion of ecosystem and socioeconomic information in the stock advice process – termed Ecosystem and Socioeconomic Profiles (ESPs). Our process leverages existing information to understand the environmental, ecological, and socio-economic drivers of stock dynamics. This process begins with (1) a systematic review of existing ecosystem and socioeconomic literature for the stock, followed by (2) development of conceptual models to outline the major pressures on the stock, (3) creation of indicators relevant to stock performance, (4) analysis of select indicators, and, lastly, (5) reporting out scientific advice. The scientific advice provided by the ESPs can come at multiple levels of complexity, ranging from providing additional context to inform model uncertainty, to suggesting new covariates to
evaluate in assessment models. In this seminar, I will outline how this preliminary ESP approach is being piloted for the bluefish stock in the 2022 research track assessment. Finally, I will highlight the ways that open data science and automation can facilitate the implementation of ESPs.
