Defining thresholds of sustainable impact on benthic communities in relation to fishing disturbance
Abstract While the direct physical impact on seabed biota is well understood, no studies have defined thresholds to inform an ecosystem-based approach to managing fishing impacts. We addressed this knowledge gap using a large-scale experiment that created a controlled gradient of fishing intensity a...
