Question:
CAUSE: Large schools of Atlantic Cod were known to be in international waters off the coast of Canada/United States. Fishing boat technology
increased in the mid-1900s.
What was the combined EFFECT of increases in fishing technology and a plentiful stock of fish in international waters from the 1950s to the
1980s?
Phenomena below: Resource Exploitation of the Atlantic Cod fishing stock
Human Activities- Tragedy of the Commons
Overexploitation of cod fishery- grand banks. Fishery
was found in international waters, so boats from many
different countries were harvesting fish. Each group was
racing to catch the fish before another ship. No one was
concerned about the stability of the fish population,
only their own profits.

O Fishing technology allowed boats to catch reasonable amounts of fish and keep the fish population stable.
Many fishermen from different countries could catch many more fish than ever before, so they fished until the population of Cod collapsed to
almost no fish.
O Fishermen didn't pursue the Atlantic Cod, because it was located in international water.
The population of Atlantic Cod kept rising no matter how much technology the fishing boats used.

Expert Solution
Step 1

There are few points about fishing technologies are as follows:

  • fishing technology is one of the good technology and being the earliest stages of development.
  • It provide the information about the fisheries and on market level.
  • there are some problems also created due to the overfishing there is decline of fishes and it also affect the ecosystem.
