Novel index for quantification of ecosystem effects of fishing as removal of secondary production (2008, background): “While several indicators have been proposed to date, very few seem to match all the criteria simultaneously (Rochet & Trenkel 2003).”
Testing candidate indicators to support ecosystem-based management: the power of monitoring surveys to detect temporal trends in fish community metrics (2004, background): “Changes in fish communities have typically been described using metrics of size-structure, diversity, or trophic structure (Rice, 2000; Rochet and Trenkel, 2003; Trenkel and Rochet, 2003).”
Lower trophic levels and detrital biomass control the Bay of Biscay continental shelf food web: Implications for ecosystem management (2011, background): “5, the limit reference point at which stocks should be considered as overexploited (Rochet and Trenkel, 2003).”
Food-web structure of and fishing impacts on the Gulf of Cadiz ecosystem (South-western Spain) (2013, background): “50 considered as overexploited stocks (Patterson, 1992; Mertz and Myers, 1998; Rochet and Trenkel, 2003).”
Stock assessment in inland fisheries: a foundation for sustainable use and conservation (2016, background): “, proportional stock density), mean fish length, and fish condition can be used as surrogate measures for biological assessment of the fish community (Rochet and Trenkel 2003).”
Fishing effects on age and spatial structures undermine population stability of fishes (2009, background): “Therefore, increasing effort has been devoted to developing indicators for assessing impacts of fisheries (Jennings and Kaiser 1998; Rochet and Trenkel 2003; Daan et al. 2005; Fulton et al. 2005), at the level of populations (e.g. average size of fish in catch, population growth rate, etc.),…”
Spatial patterns of the structure of reef fish assemblages at a pristine atoll in the central Pacific (2010, methodology): “Prey fish size spectra (Rochet & Trenkel 2003, Graham et al. 2005) were described for each habitat stratum by using least-squares regression to relate log10- transformed numerical densities to body length.”
Models and indicators for assessing conservation and fisheries-related effects of marine protected areas (2008, unknown): “The availability of reference points with threshold and limit values is considered as a desirable property for indicators (Nicholson and Fryer 2002; Rochet and Trenkel 2003).”
Exploring the effects of fishing on fish assemblages using Abundance Biomass Comparison (ABC) curves (2005, background): “Many indicators have been proposed to capture such effects; all have their own merits and drawbacks based on available scoring criteria (Rice, 2000, 2003; Rochet and Trenkel, 2003; Rice and Rochet, 2005; Shin et al., 2005).”
Indicators to support an ecosystem approach to fisheries (2005, background): “Indicators support the decision making process by (i) describing the pressures affecting the ecosystem, the state of the ecosystem and the response of managers, (ii) tracking progress towards meeting management objectives and (iii) communicating trends in complex impacts and management processes to ”
Body size‐dependent responses of a marine fish assemblage to climate change and fishing over a century‐long scale (2010, background): “As a consequence, we suggest that life history traits are important to consider during development of biological indicators of the effects of fishing and climate change on marine assemblages ( Rochet & Trenkel, 2003; Blanchard et al., 2005; Greenstreet & Rogers, 2006).”
