Abstract:IntroductionEffective fisheries management requires monitoring and quantifying changes in exploited fish communities. Concerns about global fisheries sustainability have led to innovative approaches. Functional diversity, rooted in ecological theory, offers valuable insights into fishery activities and ecosystem processes. A trait-based approach was used to investigate the functional diversity of landed fish species in the Azores archipelago from 1980 to 2021.MethodsLandings data of exploited Actinopterygii an… Show more
