Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Thesaurus: descriptors used in the Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System

The ASFIS Thesaurus permits the subject indexing and retrieval of information on all aspects of aquatic sci¬ences and technology, exploitation of living and non-living resources, related policy, social and economic aspects, processing and marketing of aquatic products, as recorded and stored in the Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System's ASFA database. This Revision 4 supersedes the ”Thesaurus of Terms for Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries" published in 1976 as FAO Fisheries Circular number 344, the “Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Thesaurus” published in 1986 as ASFA Reference Series No.6, Revision 1, the “Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Thesaurus” published in 2000 as ASFA Reference Series No.6, Revision 2 and the “Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Thesaurus” published in 2009 as ASFA Reference Series No.6, Revision. 3. The purpose of this Thesaurus is to assist the indexers, in the participating ASFA Partner institutes, in consistently choosing the most appropriate subject descriptors while preparing bibliographic references for inclusion in the ASFA database.
