Dedicated to studying the impact of fishing on the world’s marine ecosystems, the Sea Around Us project, at the Fisheries Centre, examines fish populations worldwide and the costs associated with their depletion. The Pew Charitable Trusts has invested in this comprehensive research project since 1999. Grants by Pew have allowed Sea Around Us to continue assembling and mapping global databases of fishery catches, protected areas, and the distribution of marine species.
