Abstract
This manuscript is based on a keynote lecture given by Jane Lubchenco at One Planet, One Ocean: The 2nd International Ocean Research Conference, Barcelona, Spain, November 17–21, 2014.
Highlights
The sustainability of global fisheries is of growing concern, given the historical and current overfishing of many fish stocks that threatens food provision and ocean biodiversity (Jackson et al, 2001; Halpern et al, 2008), and in many cases jeopardizes communities that rely on fisheries for food and livelihoods
Economic opportunities, and other benefits provided by a healthy ocean are in jeopardy because of years of overexploitation of many fisheries, and the challenges will intensify in many locales as climate and the environment continue to change
We review the effects of combining catch limits, rights-based fisheries approaches, and establishment of marine reserves and discuss additional advantages of these combined solutions in securing sustainable and profitable fisheries, community goals, and healthy ecosystems
