U.S.-Mexico Plannning Visit: Linking human socioeconomic systems with marine ecosystem functioning along the Pacific coast of Baja California, Mexico

0129002冈萨雷斯本美洲方案将支持由纽约州立大学的劳拉·I·冈萨雷斯-古兹曼博士和墨西哥拉巴斯的生物调查中心的塞尔吉奥·埃尔南德斯-巴斯克斯博士在墨西哥拉巴斯联合组织的一次规划会议。组织者计划开发一个合作和跨学科的研究项目，旨在建立一个概念框架，将社区渔业的社会经济动态与自然生态系统的动态联系起来，并确定这些联合力量如何影响墨西哥北太平洋西海岸的海洋环境和渔业的可持续性。来自美国和墨西哥的具有生态学、渔业科学、经济学、资源管理和地理学背景的科学家将参加会议。作为本次规划会议成果的研究计划将包括三个主要组成部分：生态系统组成部分、社会经济组成部分以及教育和外展组成部分。最终，该项目将有助于现在制定下加利福尼亚州的渔业管理办法，以及适用于太平洋区域沿海渔业的管理和养护模式和准则。

0129002 GonzalezThis Americas Program will support a planning meeting in La Paz, Mexico, jointly organized by Dr. Laura I. Gonzalez-Guzman, of SUNY and Dr. Sergio Hernandez-Vazquez of the Centro de Investigaciones Biologicas del Noreste, in La Paz, Mexico. The organizers plan to develop a collaborative and interdisciplinary research project aimed at building a conceptual framework for linking the socioeconomic dynamics of community-based fisheries with the dynamics of natural ecosystems, and determining how these joint forces influence the marine environment and the sustainability of fisheries in the Northern Pacific West Coast of Mexico.The meeting will involve scientists with backgrounds in ecology, fisheries science, economics, resource management, and geography from the US and Mexico. The research program that will be the outcome of this planning meeting will have three main components: an ecosystem component, a socioeconomic component, and an education and outreach component. Ultimately, the project will serve to develop now approaches to fisheries management in Baja California and models and guidelines for management and conservation to be applied to the coastal fisheries of the Pacific region.***
