Editorial Policy
This journal's mission is to promote communication among managers at all levels of the fisheries profession. We encourage the submission of original papers on the management of finfish and exploitable shellfish in marine and fresh waters. Contributions should relate to the means by which species, habitats, and harvests may be managed to protect and enhance fish and fishery resources for societal benefit. Well‐presented case histories of the successes, failures, and side effects of fisheries programs are invited as one means of conveying practical management experience to others. Examples of other appropriate subjects are new techniques for monitoring populations or allocating harvest; the economics of exploitation and sociology of resource users; criteria for species protection and habitat manipulation; and management‐related research, law, policy, or philosophy.
Acceptance of a paper for publication is based on its utility to managers from a broad range of perspectives. Papers concerning fisheries science per se should be submitted to the American Fisheries Society's (AFS) sister publication Transactions of the American Fisheries Society; those dealing with aquaculture should be submitted to the North American Journal of Aquaculture; those dealing with the health of fish and other aquatic organisms should be submitted to the Journal of Aquatic Animal Health; and those with a focus on marine and estuarine species and habitats should be submitted to Marine and Coastal Fisheries: Dynamics, Management, and Ecosystem Science.
