Assessing global marine fishery status with a revised dynamic catch-based method and stock-assessment reference points

The assessment of fishery status is essential for management, yet fishery-independent estimates of abundance are lacking for most fisheries. Methods exist to infer fishery status from catches, but the most commonly used method is biased towards classifying fisheries as overexploited or collapsed and does not account for still-developing fisheries. This study introduces a revised dynamic catch-based method that overcomes these deficiencies.
