Systems Analysis and Simulation in Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences by William E. Grant offers a hands-on approach to the step-by-step applications of systems analysis and simulation to questions about ecological systems. It explains general principles without requiring readers to have a strong background in mathematics, statistics, or computer science. Chapter 1 traces the development of systems ecology by introducing basic concepts, while Chapters 2 through 5 present the four phases of systems analysis: conceptual model formulation, quantitative specification of the model, model validation, and model use. Published in 1986, 338 pages, ISBN: 0-471-89236-X.

Bioeconomic Modelling and Fisheries Management by Colin W. Clark discusses the management of commercial marine fisheries, focusing on the economic forces affecting the fishing industry and the biological factors determining the production and supply of fish. The book covers topics such as methods of preventing overfishing and overcapitalization, economically effective and practical forms of regulation, the management of developing fisheries, natural fluctuations of fish stocks, and the complexities of marine ecosystems. Published in 1985, 291 pages, ISBN: 0-471-87394-2.

Methods in Marine Zooplankton Ecology by Makoto Omori and Tsutomu Ikeda serves as a comprehensive guide to current methods in the study of marine zooplankton. Encompassing basic principles, procedures, and research problems, it is applicable to small organisms and the larval stages of larger, commercially important organisms. Chapters start with a well-summarized introduction to zooplankton, followed by field sampling strategies and laboratory methods, concluding with estimates of productivity and community structure analysis. Each method is described in detail, including a discussion of inherent problems. Published in 1984, 322 pages, ISBN: 0-471-80107-0.

About the Author

About the editor John F. Caddy has been actively involved in fisheries research and its application to managing fisheries since he completed his doctoral research on the ecology of an estuarine shellfish at the University of London twenty years ago. Much of his professional career with the Government of Canada was concerned with the population dynamics of marine invertebrates, and he is the author of numerous scientific papers on this subject. He is currently employed as Senior Fishery Resource Officer in the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations in Rome, and permission from the Organization to undertake this work is gratefully acknowledged. In his present position, he has been able to draw upon his experience in a wide range of national and international fisheries in selected chapters that illustrate the main research approaches currently used in invertebrate fisheries today.
