Thanks for this, Tesni. I hope it works! (We met at the initial SMMR networking event.)

I’m Jon Pitchford, a mathematical ecologist at York. I lead the “Pyramids of Life” project https://www.smmr.org.uk/funded-projects/pyramids-of-life-working-with-nature/

Basically, we have beautiful mathematical theories about more sustainable ways to harvest marine resources, but these are meaningless unless they can be practically implemented, and worthless unless there is a market for what we catch. We are working with academia and stakeholders to find ways to make it work.

Jon.
