area-based management tools  

Definition

  • Information An area-based (or spatial) management tool is an approach that enables the application of management measures to a specific area to achieve a desired policy outcome. A wide variety of area-based management tools exist, each with their own purpose, mandate and authority. In fisheries, they include reserves and closures, area-based gear restrictions, community-managed areas and seasonal closures, as well as dynamic tools such as ‘move on’ rules.
