Status and Potential of Historical and Ecological Studies on Russian Fisheries in the White and Barents Seas: The Case of the Atlantic Salmon (Salmo Salar)
This chapter discusses the effect of social and biological factors on marine fish populations in the Barents and White seas, plus the relationship between catches, fishing effort, and prices in Russia. The population dynamics of cod, herring, and salmon in the two seas are analysed through the large amounts of available data - historical archival records; tax records; cloistral accounts - spanning the seventeenth to the twentieth century. This organisational attempt is the first of its kind pertaining to Russia, despite the volume of data.
