Our paper “Once upon a century, the Egyptian Mediterranean fisheries (1920–2019), as affected by ‘fishing down’ and climate change” is published in Ocean & Coastal Management. We reconstructed a hundred years of catches for Egypt’s Mediterranean coast and traced the combined effects of overexploitation, “fishing down” and climate change on them.

I wrote it with Daniel Pauly and my Egyptian co-authors, with support from Margaret Atwood. The paper is at doi.org/10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2023.106831.
