It is here that he begins his gripping account of those tense weeks in March, presenting a fascinating chronicle of an international search effort, which despite years of searching and tens of millions of dollars spent has failed to find the plane.

Ces méthodes sont rarement appliquées aux petites pêcheries continentales qui sont par nature très différentes de leurs pendants océaniques. Elles reposent sur des suivis à long terme, des procédures analytiques complexes et nécessite des mises à jour fréquentes pour ajuster les mesures de régulation en fonction de l’état de la ressource. Le développement et l’utilisation de ces méthodes ont été amorcés par les grandes pêcheries commerciales océaniques. Ces méthodes ont permis de justifier des politiques de diminution drastique de la pression de pêche qui ont été bénéfiques à beaucoup de ressources. Le déclin généralisé des ressources halieutiques à partir du début des années 80 a incité les scientifiques et les gestionnaires des pêcheries à développer des méthodes quantitatives d’évaluation pour améliorer leur gestion. ![]() |
