remained relatively stable over the past two decades while fish production through aquaculture has progressivly increased. The Indian fisheries sector has come a long way since independence (Figure 1) and has contributed immensely to the food basket of the country, with annual production levels of over six million tonnes of fish and shellfish from capture fisheries and aquaculture. India is the...

The paper reviews the main findings of rocky shore and subtidal nearshore experimental marine ecology (EME) in cold and temperate marine ecosystems during the past four decades. It analyzes the role of EME in coastal management and conservation. The historical development of strategies for managing single or multispecies fisheries are reviewed. The published results show over-exploitation and d...
