Description: The FAO reports small-scale fisheries data for 59 countries. The Sea Around Us Project (SAUP) subjected these data to initial quality checks (spot validation against locally-derived data). A multivariate regression model was used to isolate geographic, demographic, and socioeconomic variables that best predict the SAUP-validated artisanal catch rates from FAO (excluding values estimated by SAUP). Data for these variables were obtained from the CIA World Factbook (http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook), World Resources Institute EarthTrends database (http://www.earthtrends.wri.org), and ETOPO2 bathymetric data (http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/global/relief/ETOPO2/) and included: length of coastline, shallow shelf area (<100m within EEZ), 2005 population size, proportion of population living within 100 km of the coast, per-capita GDP (calculated as the mean of this value from 2001-2003, in 2006 US dollars), unemployment rates, proportion of total protein supply from fish products, daily per capita consumption of fish and fisheries products, total number of commercial fishing vessels, total annual landings of marine animals taken for commercial, industrial, recreational and subsistence purposes, and the ratio of total landings to total number of commercial vessels.
