Abstract
ASFA: Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts provides extensive coverage of the world's literature on the science, technology, management, and conservation of marine, brackish water, and freshwater resources and environments, including their socio-economic and legal aspects.
ASFA: Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts is also part of Earth, Atmospheric, & Aquatic Science Database, Natural Science Collection, and SciTech Premium Collection.
ASFA: Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts is the principal component of the Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System (ASFIS), an international cooperative information system for the collection and dissemination of information covering the science, technology and management of marine, brackish water, and freshwater environments.
ASFA: Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts is produced under auspices of the ASFA Partnership, a network that includes four United Nations sponsoring agencies and more than 60 international and national partners, each tasked with reviewing and indexing the aquatic literature published in their region. For over 30 years, ASFA has been published and distributed worldwide under a cooperative agreement between ProQuest and the Food & Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Although primarily English language, publications in over 40 other languages are translated and indexed for inclusion.
