Fish - Food and livelihood for a growing world population, industrial sector and finite resource. One quarter of all known edible fish are considered overfished. For this reason, researchers at Kiel University and GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel are looking at the resource fish from a wide variety of perspectives. Their common goal: finding new approaches to environmentally sound fisheries management. Kiel biologists, economists and legal experts are working closely together in the Cluster of Excellence "The Future Ocean" toward this goal.
