1. Introduction/ 2. Rights-Based Management/ 3. Bycatch/ 4. Politics, Enforcement, and Compliance/ Index/
* Conservation and Management of Transnational Tuna Fisheries reviews and synthesizes the existing literature, focusing on rights-based management and the creation of economic incentives to manage transnational tuna fisheries. Transnational tuna fisheries are among the most important fisheries in the world, and tuna commissions are increasingly shifting toward this approach. Comprehensively covering the subject, Conservation and Management of Transnational Tuna Fisheries summarizes global experience and offers practical applications for applying rights-based management and the creation of economic incentives, addressing potential problems as well as the total level of capacity. *

The International Law of EEZ Fisheries
Principles and Implementation

Contents
* As fish stocks continue to decline worldwide, coastal states seem to have largely failed in managing fisheries in their EEZs effectively. This study examines the international legal principles for effective EEZ fisheries management, and undertakes to assess their domestic implementation in a comparative perspective.
* The 1982 UNCLOS as well as general international law provide a useful range of norms for sustainable EEZ fisheries management, if carefully interpreted. These include the coastal state’s obligation to ensure that the maintenance of the living resources in its EEZ is not endangered by over-exploitation; the duty to maintain or restore populations of target species at sustainable levels; the determination of catch limits for stocks affected by exploitation; and the duty to apply the precautionary approach. In addition to such environmental requirements, issues of distributive justice and procedural fairness are also included in the analysis. *

Principles of Sonar Performance Modelling

1. Introduction/ 2. Essential Background/ 3. The Sonar Equations/ 4. Sonar Oceanography/ 5. Underwater Acoustics (I): theory/ 6. Sonar Signal Processing/ 7. Statistical Detection Theory/ 8. Underwater Acoustics (II): sources and scatterers of sound/ 9. Underwater Acoustics (III): propagation effects/ 10. Sonar Characteristics/ 11. The Sonar Equations Revisited/ 12. The Future of Sonar Performance Modelling/ Appendix 1: Special functions and mathematical operations/ Appendix 2: Units and nomenclature/ Appendix 3: Fish and their swim bladders/ Index/
* Dr Ainslie’s book provides a long-awaited complete and modern treatment of sonar performance modelling (SPM). In this context, the word "sonar" is used in a broad sense, to mean any deliberate use of underwater sound, including by marine mammals. The acronym "SONAR" stands for "sound navigation and ranging", but this book demonstrates how sonar systems and methodology are used for a variety of sensing, communications and deterrence systems, and by a number of industries and end-users (military, offshore, fisheries, surveyors and oceanography). *

Contents
1.Acoustic Signals and Data Acquisition/ 2.Imagery and Bathymetry/ 3.Sidescan Sonar Data Processing/ 4.Spreading and Subduction/ 5.Abyssal Basins/ 6.Continental Margins/ 7.Shallow-Water Environments/ 8.Man-Made Structures/ 9.Detection of Anomalies and Artefacts/ 10. Computer-Assisted Interpretation/ Index/
* Seafloor surveying with acoustic remote sensing has become a powerful tool for researchers and professionals seeking knowledge about the structure and behavior of the seafloor. Sidescan sonar is proving to be the preeminent technique, but its data is often difficult to interpret due to the physics of acoustic remote sensing, and to the varied geological processes at play.
* This book covers all the fundamentals of sidescan sonar, and goes on to explain how to interpret sidescan sonar imagery and bathymetry. It fully explores the most recent advances in sonar technology as well as new understanding of marine structures, and provides deep insights for interpretation and decision-making. Broadly expanded and updated from the previous 1997 "Handbook of Seafloor Sonar Imagery", this handbook is indispensable to oceanographers, resource exploiters, telecommunications engineers, and marine researchers of all kinds. *

Biology of Skates
Springer-Verlag 2009.3
246 pp.(H)
ISBN 1-4020-9702-6
18,200円
Contents
* Skates have become a concern in recent years due to the preponderance of these elasmobranchs that are caught as bycatch or as a directed fishery. This has raised concern because skates have life history characteristics that may make them vulnerable to over-exploitation. It was due to this concern that prompted Drs. David Ebert and James Sulikowski to organize an international symposium on the "Biology of Skates". The aims and goals of the symposium were to bring together an international group of researchers to meet, discuss, perhaps develop collaborations, and present their most recent findings.
* The symposium was held over two days, on 13-14 July, 2006, in conjunction with the 22nd annual meeting of the American Elasmobranch Society in New Orleans, LA. A total of 31 authors from four countries contributed 16 papers that appear in this volume. The papers are broadly arranged into four separate categories: systematics and biogeography, diet and feeding ecology, reproductive biology, and age and growth. This is the first dedicated book on the biology of skates. We hope that readers will find this volume of interest and that it helps encourage and stimulate future research into these fascinating fishes. *
