Improving Fisheries Advice within an Ecosystem Approach is one of the MareFrame tasks. The question of which quantitative modelling tools can be used to support an ecosystem approach to management has been addressed from several angles. Anne B. Hollowed et al. (2011) focused on the implications of decisions on the biological system being managed. By analyzing federal fisheries from the eastern Bering Sea (USA), the authors support that a diverse suite of modelling tools is needed to address tactical and strategic management issues germane to the adoption of the ecosystem approach to fisheries management.
