Improved traceability in seafood supply chains is achievable by minimising vulnerable nodes in processing and distribution networks (2023)
Journal Article
Hopkins, C. R., Roberts, S. I., Caveen, A. J., Graham, C., & Burns, N. M. (2024). Improved traceability in seafood supply chains is achievable by minimising vulnerable nodes in processing and distribution networks. Marine Policy, 159, Article 105910. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpol.2023.105910

Seafood is a globally traded commodity, often involving complex supply chains which have varying degrees of traceability. A robust traceability system for seafood supply chains enables the collection and communication of key information about catch a...

Pay Gaps Between Domestic and International Fishers: an Economic or Ethical Issue? (2019)
Journal Article
Jones, E., Botterill, K., Chikwama, C., Caveen, A., & Gray, T. (2020). Pay Gaps Between Domestic and International Fishers: an Economic or Ethical Issue?. Maritime Studies, 19(1), 15-27. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40152-019-00133-6

Through the global market for maritime labour, multi-national crews now work on fishing vessels which were once serviced by domestic crews only. The remuneration and working conditions for non-domestic crews are causing concern, with allegations of u...

Structure and spatio-temporal dynamics of the artisanal small-scale fisheries at the future MPA of "Taza" (Algerian coast, SW Mediterranean) (2018)
Journal Article
Boubekri, I., Caveen, A. J., Djebar, A. B., Amara, R., & Mazurek, H. (2018). Structure and spatio-temporal dynamics of the artisanal small-scale fisheries at the future MPA of "Taza" (Algerian coast, SW Mediterranean). Mediterranean Marine Science, 19(3), 555-571. https://doi.org/10.12681/MMS.16192

Artisanal Small-Scale Fisheries (SSFs) are a primordial and very diverse activity in the Mediterranean, also within Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). This diversity is explained in terms of target species, gears, and fishing strategies. The main objecti...

This book is a critical analysis of the concept of marine protected areas (MPAs) particularly as a tool for marine resource management. It explains the reasons for the extraordinary rise of MPAs to the top of the political agenda for marine policy, a...

The North Sea is one of the most economically important seas in the world due to productive fisheries, extensive oil and gas fields, busy shipping routes, marine renewable energy development and recreational activity. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the u...

Are fisheries-dependent communities in Scotland really maritime-dependent communities? (2014)
Journal Article
Jones, E. V., Caveen, A. J., & Gray, T. S. (2014). Are fisheries-dependent communities in Scotland really maritime-dependent communities?. Ocean and Coastal Management, 95, 254-263. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2014.04.025

It is often said that fishing is not a job, but a way of life. The traditions, culture and structure of fishing in coastal communities have been built over the centuries, supporting their development and sustaining their existence (OECD, 2007). Scotl...

MPA policy: What lies behind the science? (2012)
Journal Article

What the current policy debate on marine protected areas (MPAs) and marine reserves (MRs) has failed to address is the fact that protection of the marine environment has as much to do with scientists, and others values as it has to do with science. T... Read More about MPA policy: What lies behind the science?.
