Abstract
    The broadening of fisheries management to include ecosystem-related objectives raises a potentially confusing range of possible issues for consideration in management decisions, in reporting and in assessing management performance. However, there are methods available and approaches to addressing theissues that are practical, accessible to stakeholder participation and scientifically assessable. Three broad and interrelated elements are described that allowecosystem objectives to be practically and operationallyincorporated into marine fisheries management systems.
