Este documento resume os traballos de Diagnose sobre igualdade de xénero no sector pesqueiro que o Grupo de Investigación en Economía Pesqueira e dos Recursos Naturais da Universidade de Santiago de Compostela realizou, en colaboración coa Confraría San Francisco de Vigo e no marco do Proxecto “Somos Confraría” (GALP7-169), entre xullo e outubro de...
Over the past two decades, enormous signs of progress have been made in high-throughput sequencing (HTS) method development. This fact unveiled the potential usefulness of HTS methods in a wide range of fields, such as fishery assessment and management, for which their application has been extensively discussed. As a consequence of the rapid develo...
A pesca é un sector altamente masculinizado e se ben as condicións de traballo femininas foron mellorando nas últimas décadas, este segue estando caracterizado por unha alta segmentación vertical e horizontal, con diversos mecanismos que perpetúan a discriminación das mulleres (Frangoudes, 2013; REMSP, 2018). Galicia é un dos territorios da Unión E...

Se identifican variables contextuales que modulan la permisividad del furtivismo marisquero y se analiza cuál es el objetivo de la creación de estas excepciones. A partir de una encuesta se profundiza en cómo las motivaciones...
INTRODUCIÓN
As sancións son a única fonte de información rexistrada sobre a actuación dos furtivos en Galicia. Porén, só mostran unha parte pequena do furtivismo: o que é detectado, identificado e sancionado.
A revisión das sancións revela tendencias nas actividades furtivas, especies obxectivos, puntos quentes de furtivismo, etc. Permite discuti...
Poaching is the main threat of the Galician Shellfish Industry [1–6].
It is an endemic, widespread phenomenon deeply rooted in coastal communities [2].
In some cases, poaching is tolerated by legal shellfish gathers [1]
Tolerance could happen depending on two variables [1-2]:
Reason for poaching (Why poachers poach?) Shellfish harvesters’ could be...
The aim of the paper is to deepen the knowledge of plagiarism among college students in a Spanish University and to propose measures leading to its reduction. An analytical framework was developed to compare students’ perception of the plagiarism that they perform with data provided by anti-plagiarism software, which provided objective information...
The current European Union has been progressively implementing since January 2014 a discard ban which includes the obligation to land unwanted catch for certain regulated species and sizes. Although a full enforcement of the landing obligation has a direct impact on discard reduction through more responsible and selective fishing, fishers argue tha...
Natural resources management deals with highly complex socioecological systems. This complexity raises a conundrum, since wide-ranging knowledge from different sources and types is needed, but at the same time none of these types of knowledge is able by itself to provide the basis for a viable productive system, and mismatches between the two of th...
Resilience is understood as dynamic learning ability, self-organization, and adaptability of a system, when affected by unforeseen events. Therefore, we focused on business dimension of resilience and establishes a methodology based on Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process in order to determine the incidence of five analysis criteria that related to:...
Shellfish poaching is an act of noncompliance with the laws that regulate fisheries governance. In this paper we explored if compliance with shellfishing laws among Galician licensed shellfish-gatherers (NW Spain) is voluntary or motivated by coercive factors. The results reveal that in those communities with a greater degree of compliance, license...

Evidence of the irreversibility of certain social changes has been accumulating in recent years, but both the processes by which perceptions of irreversibility are formed and the relationships between those elements that feed them remain largely unexplo- red. This work deals with the contribution of land uses to the creation of liveable rural areas...
The aim of this work is to prove the significant relationship between the economic crisis and the increase of the shellfish poaching in Galicia (NW Spain) during the period 2008-2012. A relationship was observed between the “necessity” causes and the economic incentives as an explanation for shellfish poaching. The results achieved pointing out the...
To assess the likely economic outcomes to fishing fleets of the Landing Obligation (LO), bioeconomic models covering seven European fisheries, ranging from the North East Atlantic to the Mediterranean, have been applied to estimate the economic performance of fleets before and after implementing the LO. It is shown that for most of the analysed fis...
The discussion about the biodiversity conservation and human wellbeing is
currently intense and, quite often, revenue coming from tourism had been assumed
enough to marry together the development of local communities with the protection of
natural capital. However, the debate is far from been solved. This research is based in
three key features aim...

The Landing Obligation (L.O.) will demand extra workload to manage all the bycatch that formerly were dumped into the sea.
The new landing protocol, in some cases, will generate a massive amount of regulated catches which must be handled and landed. In this situation, additional extra work will be required to manipulate, conserve and stock appropri...
The objective of the article is to measure the impact caused by business incubators on the region of Galicia (Spain) in relation with the birth of new companies, the generation of new job posts and the payment of taxes derived from that activity and, particularly, the net creation of businesses attributable to the incubators. To analyse the profita...

Various theories have been put forward as to why business and industry develops in clusters and despite good work being carried out on path dependence and dynamics, this is still very much an emerging topic in the social sciences. To date, no overarching theoretical framework has been developed to show how clusters evolve.

Mussel farming is the largest aquaculture activity in Spain both in volume and value, being a key pillar for the development of the coastal areas in Galicia (NW Spain), where this production is concentrated. The available scientific knowledge suggests that in the long term the primary productivity of the Galician estuaries will be reduced due to cl...
During the Action A.1 of the Life-iSeas Project developed in 2015, we explored the legitimacy of the imposition of the Landing Obligation (L.O) legislation on a Galician coastal trawlers fleet. The main conclusions of that study found a lack of perceived legitimacy among the fishermen and a low expected compliance of the L.O. into the target fleet....

The European Commission has recognized discards as one of the most important problems of the Community fishing fleet. The landing obligation of all regulated catches has been proposed to minimize discarding practices. In this work, the perception of legitimacy that fishermen have of the landing obligation is explored, according to the expected resu...
The actions of illegal appropriators of renewable resources and/or wildlife represent one of the main threats for natural resources preservation (Muth & Bowe, 1998).The suitable classification of natural resources poachers will be important to define policies to rule the resources under specific management circumstances, and will be particularly im...

It has long been generally accepted that substitution between wild and farmed fish exists when they are of the same species. While this is true for some species and markets, the relation does not hold for all of them. In fact, using cointegration methodology, this paper proves that farmed and wild gilthead sea bream, sea bass and turbot (with salmo...

This paper about economic resilience begins with the framework of epistemological complexity that allows understanding of the nature of the socio-economic systems and their multiple interactions at different scales. Within this context, the adaptive complex systems and the panarchy heuristic model are taken as a structure for analysis to understand...
Socio-economic resilience studies rise from the epistemological complexity framework, which allows the understanding of socio-ecological systems nature´s and their multiple interactions at different scales. Resilience is understood as an emergent properties of complex adaptive systems allowing them to learn, self-organize and adapt without changing...

O pôster apresenta dados e conclusões preliminares sobre pesquisa em andamento sobre a mariscagem ilegal em Galicia (Espanha).
Harmful algal blooms (HABs), more specifically red tides, are among the most critical environmental factors affecting mussel cultivation in Galicia (NW Spain), and they often have been blamed for economic losses for producers. This statement is based on the correlation between days of closure of the production areas and unsold product. The present...
Most of the world’s fisheries are at least fully exploited. The main causal factor of this situation is the lack of a regulative institutional ambient in the fishing industry that, without well defined rules of the game, followed in recent decades a combined trend of marine resources overexploitation and inefficient economic results. The
aim of thi...
La mayor parte de las pesquerías del mundo están, al menos, plenamente explotadas. El principal elemento causal de esa situación es la falta de un ambiente institucional regulador de una actividad pesquera que, sin reglas de juego definidas, ha seguido en las últimas décadas una tendencia combinada de sobreexplotación de los recursos del mar y de r...

This paper combines official data from 1990–2007 for (i) the Total Allowable Catchs (TACs) recommended by International Council for the Exploration for the Sea (ICES) scientists and the proposed and approved TACs and (ii) biomass, recruitment, catches, fishing effort, and current exploitation rates for all marine populations subjected to TAC regula...
This paper examines the carrying capacity of the nine ecogeographic areas of the Galician (NW Spain) continental platform during the 1998–2007 period by (i) reconstructing fisheries catches and (ii) quantifying the amount of available primary production required (PPR) required to sustain small-scale (inshore and coastal) fisheries catches. The resu...
Galicia ha sido hasta mediados los años 80 el principal productor mundial de mejillón, con una producción fuertemente centrada en el mercado español, en el que su posición era hegemónica. Sin embargo, el escenario internacional es cada vez más un condicionante de la dinámica productiva interna, como muestra, sin ir más lejos, la creciente presencia...
This paper presents an estimation of the economic effects of the Prestige oil spill in Galicia, focusing on the Death Coast fisheries and using fish landings as a market technique. Examining the evolution of landings in the Death Coast before and after the accident, the analysis reveals two opposing trends, with landings of some species increasing...
