About this conference

The key intention of ICFAS is to provide opportunity for the global participants to share their ideas and experience in person with their peers expected to join from different parts on the world. In addition this gathering will help the delegates to establish research or business relations as well as to find international linkage for future collaborations in their career path. We hope that ICFAS outcome will lead to significant contributions to the knowledge base in these up-to-date scientific fields in scope.

Topics and scope

• Fisheries and Aquaculture
• Fisheries biology and ecology (including age and growth, reproduction, behavior, physiology, stock identification, genetics, larval dispersal, and life histories) at different spatiotemporal scales as well as species\\\' performance and responses to perturbation, restoration, and management actions
• The biology, ecology, assessment, and management of marine birds, invertebrates, and mammals related to fisheries and ecosystem topics
• Habitat as a resource in space and time
• Food webs, trophic dynamics, and prey resources
• Assessment science and management scenario evaluation, including dedicated access, adaptive management, area-based management, community-based management, and coastal and marine zoning (including protected areas and reserves)
• Single- and multispecies assessment and management
• Data synthesis, management, and informatics
• Historical data and ecological baselines
• Policy, including the implementation of innovative solutions and negotiated settlements and court decisions that affect fisheries policy
• Human dimensions and socioeconomics
• Fisheries management capacity building (training, education, and the promotion of collaborative research and management)
• The influence of environmental variability and change (including climate change) on population and ecosystem dynamics and productivity
• Metrics, benchmarks, and determination of ecosystem status
• The ecological impacts of fishing
• Ecosystem-based fishery assessment and management in theory and practice
• Ecosystem modeling and forecasting aimed at better understanding and managing coastal and marine fisheries
