You Wouldn’t Spawn in a Septic Tank, Would You?

Abstract: Environmental effects of salmon farming are controversial issues. In Northern Norway, cod fishers argue that the location of salmon pens in fjords results in the cessation of local cod spawning. Research supporting or rejecting such statements is scant. There is an absence of both short-term and long-term studies on the effects that salmon farming may have on wild fish stocks. There are few studies of local ecosystem relationships in general. This article explores fishers' arguments about the effects of salmon… Show more

“…Since the classical study by Morril (1967), several other studies have recorded that small-scale fishermen have a detailed LEK about fish (Johannes, 1981;Johannes et al, 2000;Poizat & Baran, 1997;Aswani & Hamilton, 2004;Silvano & Begossi, 2005;Gerhardinger et al, 2009). Notwithstanding the methodological improvements on data collection, two recent issues on LEK research deserve consideration: reliability and accuracy (Maurstad et al, 2007). Reliability is the confidence that interviewees (fishermen in this study) are mentioning what they really know and believe, while accuracy is the degree to which the information provided by interviewees, even if reliable, corresponds to real biological phenomena (Maurstad et al, 2007).…”

“…Notwithstanding the methodological improvements on data collection, two recent issues on LEK research deserve consideration: reliability and accuracy (Maurstad et al, 2007). Reliability is the confidence that interviewees (fishermen in this study) are mentioning what they really know and believe, while accuracy is the degree to which the information provided by interviewees, even if reliable, corresponds to real biological phenomena (Maurstad et al, 2007). Therefore, a reliable (sincere) information given by an informant may be inaccurate (equivocal) and vice-versa.…”

“…Enquanto alguns trabalhos dão conta da obrigatoriedade de integração do "conhecimento ecológico tradicional" na avaliação ambiental e gestão de recursos no Canadá (Usher, 2000), outros salientam a continuada falta de integração do conhecimento local nos processos de planeamento e decisão política, aplicado aos casos de parques eólicos na Escócia (Aitken, 2009), de gestão dos riscos de cheia (Brown & Damery, 2002), no ordenamento de zonas costeiras no Reino Unido (O'Riordan, 2005), na gestão da água na Holanda (Edelenbos et al, 2011) ou na compatibilização das actividades da pesca e aquicultura na Noruega (Maurstad et al., 2007) Sobre a questão específica das alterações climáticas já existem múltiplos estudos que dão conta da perspetiva "leiga" ou local deste problema global. Ainda que alguns se baseiem em metodologias mais extensivas, como inquéritos à população (Bulkeley, 2000), a maioria são estudos de caso locais: veja-se, por exemplo, o número especial da revista Climatic Change exclusivamente dedicado ao conhecimento indígena das alterações climáticas (Green & Raygorodetsky, 2010), o trabalho de Paton e Fairbairn-Dunlop (2010) sobre Tuvalu, de Sakurai et al.…”
