A bibliography of contemporary papers on the status of global fisheries

Class participant Manuel Berrio provided this list of contemporary papers on the status of global fisheries.  Thanks Manny!

— forwarded material from M. Berrio–

Below is a list of references I compiled to track the current status of our debate. I also attempted to follow some of the threads that emerged during our conversation. I have focused on the most recent publications. And I have included some ‘curious’ papers which called my attention. I have grouped the references under titles trying to identify the relevant subject matter.
