This chart plots each WCPFC flag state against two dimensions – _the vertical axis indicates the state’s GDP per capita as a measure of the level of development, while the horizontal axis indicates the proportion of the value of catches by the state’s national fleets that is caught beyond the waters of the flag state. The latter is inferred from FFA value of catch data for each national fleet less the value of catches by vessels flying the flag of the coastal state in which the fish are caught. A third dimension – _the value of the total catch by each national fleet in both national waters and beyond national waters – _is illustrated by the size of the bubble for each coastal state. Datapoints represented red bubbles are FFA members, and blue bubbles represent non-FFA members. http://www.franciscoblaha.info/blog/2021/7/18/online-week-global-fisheries-enforcement-workshop-and-comprehensive-social-responsibility-programs monthly 0.5 2021-07-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a9273ae4b07fa2610392dd/1626586558024-V9SORDBX7TJKO8R2S8PL/Slide1.jpeg Blog -

Contrast between the world’s marine fisheries catches, assembled by FAO from voluntary submissions of its member countries (‘reported’) and that of the catch ‘reconstructed’ to include all fisheries known to exist, in all countries and in the High Sea (‘reconstructed’=‘reported’+ estimates of ‘unreported’). The mean weighted percentage uncertainty of the reconstructed total catches (over all countries and fisheries sectors) based on the quality scores attributed to each sector in each country and territory (dashed line) is also shown. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a9273ae4b07fa2610392dd/1453686232945-UVU7XWGL800QLM4WDDD4/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Can we trust FAO Fisheries Statistics?
