Sea Around Us

Daniel Pauly's shifting baseline syndrome is used by The Guardian to explain how so few of us have noticed that flavour somehow vanished from our food.

🎓 Congratulations to our graduate student Anna Luna Rossi on completing her master’s degree!

Anna conducted outstanding research on integrating biodiversity, catch reconstruction and ecosystem modelling to inform sustainable fisheries in Saint Pierre and Miquelon (France) through a multi-scale approach.

We’re proud of your achievement and can’t wait to see what’s next for you, Anna! 🌊🐟

Donate | Sea Around Us The Sea Around Us depends on the support of our partners and dedicated individuals to carry out its vital work. With your help, we will continue to provide unique, global databases of marine and freshwater fisheries catches and related indicators crucial to back marine conservation efforts, includin...

🌊 From shark finning hotspot to marine conservation success story.

Indonesia’s Misool Marine Reserve has seen fish biomass increase by 250% and shark populations rise by 190% thanks to strong protection measures, local leadership and constant enforcement. 🦈🐠

Real MPA or paper park? Misool Marine Reserve | Sea Around Us Misool is a good example of what can be accomplished when different groups, such as the local community, authorities and tourism operators, join forces to protect the ocean.

Part of the Sea Around Us team is in Corsica for the Symposium on the Challenges of Sustainable Fishing in Mediterranean Island Environments. 🌊

The Symposium included an excursion to the Bonifacio Straits Natural Reserve, the largest marine protected area in metropolitan France, spanning marine and coastal habitats between Corsica and Sardinia.

The team also visited the Ermitage de la Trinité alongside representatives from the Environment Office responsible for the MPA.

As the Sea Around Us continues to update its catch data and stock assessments to 2022, a CMSY workshop was held at the GEOMAR
Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research, Kiel, Germany. Our researchers and external advisors reviewed the methodology and its proper application to some of the most commercially important fish populations in the world. 👉 https://bit.ly/cmsyvids

The Sea Around Us PI, Dr. Daniel Pauly, together with Dr. Fabrice Teletchea, Quantitative Aquatics Vice-Chair, joined Dr. Eric Durieux and other colleagues in Corsica at the Symposium on the Challenges of Sustainable Fishing in Mediterranean Island Environments.

Could transforming global fisheries help fight climate change? 🌊🌎

A new letter published in Science, co-authored by Dr. William Cheung, Dr. Rashid Sumaila, and Dr. Daniel Pauly, argues that the global fishing industry must be included in climate mitigation frameworks.
