Over the past forty years, marine artificial reef researchers have explored a variety of key questions about the ecology and function of manmade marine habitat. While artificial reefs have long been presumed to offer an alternative management option to resource managers, in practice artificial reefs are often not formally incorporated into fishery management plans.

This volume addresses many of these issues with papers based chiefly on presentations given at a symposium held at the American Fisheries Society annual meeting in Tampa, Florida,  and the 11th CARAH (Conference on Artificial Reefs and Related Habitats) held in Terengganu, Malaysia, both held in 2017.

This topical work presents research results that address the incorporation of artificial reefs into fishery management strategies.  The book will be invaluable to natural resource researchers and managers.
