#ICYMI A recent paper investigates vessel behavior as more countries have adopted the Port State Measures Agreement, an internationally binding treaty addressing #illegalfishing, and shares opportunities for countries to strengthen implementation. 🔗
oceansolutions.stanford.edu
Domestic vessels account for the majority of port visits globally. Inspecting them in addition to foreign vessels is key to deterring illegal fishing, scientists say.

A recent paper highlights that more scrutiny of domestic fishing fleets at ports could help deter #IUUfishing. Read more from @oceansolutions managing director @ElizabethSelig, who led the study. ⤵️
Our paper shows that the Port State Measures Agreement (PSMA), a global agreement to end #IUUFishing, has made it harder for foreign vessels to land catches where they are not subject to PSMA monitoring. We highlight ways to strengthen its impact: 1/

“Humanity has relied on the ocean for millennia, yet today’s scale and diversity of use are unprecedented. While this offers opportunities for human wellbeing, it also poses severe risks to ecosystems and the communities that depend on them." – @oceansolutions @jb_jouffray
Corporate impacts on marine ecosystems are under-reported, according to a new paper in Nature Sustainability. Researchers are sharing this baseline information with nature reporting frameworks to improve transparency/accountability: https://t.co/VTk85utZ8L

A #NewPaper in Marine Policy shares a conceptual framework of links between climate change & decent work in fisheries. Read more from @oceansolutions managing director @ElizabethSelig, a co-author on the study. ⤵️
As climate change pushes fish stocks to new places, temperature, rainfall, waves, and storms will impact fishers' health and well-being, especially as they embark on potentially longer journeys to catch the same amount of fish. More in our new paper:
