LMEs Track 2 September 26, 2002 LMEs and Coasts: Experiences and Lessons Learned
Major factor is environment variability: warm water intrusions, from South and equatorial current. Changes distribution and productivity of stocks. Not a question of overcapacity and fishing effort overall. Need adaptive fisheries mgt. Need to lower fishing pressure during those times. Environmental signal in the Benguela Current is important. Different from other LMEs in terms of what the cause is.
