Accumulation of new knowledge and advances in fishery management: two complementary processes?. Apostolaki, P., Pilling, G. M., Armstrong, M. J., Metcalfe, J. D., & Forster, R. In Payne, A, Cotter, J, & Potter, T, editors, ADVANCES IN FISHERIES SCIENCE: 50 YEARS ON FROM BEVERTON AND HOLT, pages 229-254. BLACKWELL SCIENCE PUBL, OSNEY MEAD, OXFORD OX2 0EL, ENGLAND, 2008. doi abstract bibtex The past few decades have marked a dramatic change in our ability to collect, analyse and use information about fish stocks, the natural systems of which they are part, and the external conditions that affect them. It is often claimed that this knowledge would contribute to the sustainable use of marine resources if taken into account in the development of fisheries management plans. However, the incorporation of new knowledge in such processes has been slow compared with the rate at which new knowledge is accumulated. Here, we discuss some of the factors that can impede the uptake of new knowledge at both the level of preparing official scientific advice or when this advice is used to adopt fishery management measures. We also suggest ways to improve utilization and uptake of new knowledge and reference cases in which such uptake has been facilitated.
