摘要对于整个加勒比地区的渔民来说，飓风等重大风暴事件是他们生活经历的重要组成部分。在过去的几十年里，美属维尔京群岛（USVI）的渔民经常经历重大风暴及其后果，包括飓风雨果（1989年），玛丽莲（1995年）和伊尔玛和玛丽亚（2017年）。使用弹性文献作为我们的理论透镜，我们提供了历史背景和分析渔民的观点，以发展渔民和机构对风暴的反应更好地了解目前的初步数据。我们研究个人的经验和互动机构从事直接风暴救济和风暴后渔业管理。这些渔民的观点的初步分析是用来为未来的研究议程提供信息的建议，确定最突出的变量在两个恢复力的文献和渔民的经验。
Abstract For fishers throughout the Caribbean, major storm events such as hurricanes are a significant component of their life experiences. Over the past few decades, fishers in the US Virgin Islands (USVI) frequently experienced major storms and their aftermath, including Hurricanes Hugo (1989), Marilyn (1995), and Irma and Maria (2017). Using the resilience literature as our theoretical lens, we provide historical context and analyze current preliminary data on fishers’ perspectives to develop a better understanding of fishers’ and institutional responses to storms. We examine individual experiences and interactions with the institutions engaged in direct storm relief and post-storm fishery management. Preliminary analysis of these fishers’ perspectives is used to inform recommendations for a future research agenda by identifying the variables most prominent in both the resilience literature and fishers’ experiences.
