COASTAL FISHERIES RESOURCES THAT ARE VITAL FOR MANY ISLAND COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE PACIFIC ARE SERIOUSLY COMPROMISED AT MANY LOCALES. ALTERNATIVELY, MANY STOCKS OF MORE RESILIENT HIGHLY MIGRATORY PELAGIC FISH SPECIES REMAIN TODAY ON HEALTHY CONDITIONS. UNFORTUNATELY, ACCESS TO THOSE RESOURCES BY ARTISANAL FISHERS AND LOCAL DEMAND REMAINS LIMITED. THE PRESENT PROPOSAL WOULD DIRECTLY ADDRESS THE PITFALLS OF DECLINING LOCAL FISHERIES PRODUCTION BY ENHANCING PELAGIC FISHING SUCCESS/PROFITABILITY AROUND ANCHORED FISHING AGGREGATION DEVICES (AFAD) WHILE AT THE SAME PROMOTING LOCAL DEMAND FOR PELAGIC SPECIES. BUILDING UPON EXISTING ECHOSOUNDER TECHNOLOGIES DEVELOPED FOR THE INDUSTRIAL FISHING FLEETS AND PRELIMINARY TESTS, THE CURRENT PROJECT PROPOSES TO: I) ENHANCE GUAM'S AFAD NETWORK WITH ECHOSOUNDER BUOYS, SO LIVE MEASURES OF SMART-AFAD FISH BIOMASS AND SPECIES COMPOSITION BECOME AVAILABLE TO MANAGERS AND FISHERS, II) DEVELOP A WEB-BASED DATA-SHARING PLATFORM TO DISSEMINATE LIVE-FEE
