Abstract Indian marine fisheries have expanded four-fold in the last 50 years form of open-access commons. Although studies predict that fish stocks are on decline there is little evidence these declines being countered by changes either fishing regulations or practices. Fishermen rarely comply with regulations, instead operationalizing and directing fishery their own. In circumstances understanding how fishermen perceive use resources has significant management policy implications. Our...
Abstract The first record of a bat species from the Lakshadweep archipelago (India) has been identified as
Abstract Tropical fish populations often traverse management boundaries, making it difficult to evaluate species vulnerabilities and optimise sustainable fishing goals. Most vulnerability assessments rely on life histories gear susceptibility, but ignore transboundary differences in management, which can strongly affect vulnerability. We propose a novel matrix, the Biology – Transboundary Management (BTM) index for individual based 1) Species specific 2) distribution of genetically-distinct...
A quarter century after the 1998 El Niño, it is still difficult to predict how individual reefs will respond recurring disturbances. Reports differ on relative importance of anthropogenic influences, local geography and bleaching recurrence in determining resistance recovery. It assumed that coral traits largely determine winners losers, based susceptibility, recruitment, survival growth. Whether this translates long-term fates corals debated. We tracked multi-decadal compositional changes...
