We observed that some seamounts have positive effects on catch for more than one species in most EEZs and these seamounts in particular might be priorities for management.

Although the EEZ estimates carry substantial uncertainty, being based on relatively sparse OC and/or BD data for marine sediments, they indicate that large stocks of carbon reside in sediments within the EEZs of the three countries examined here.
Where an EEZ was covered by a number of different FAO regions, these EEZs were where possible divided into two separate estimates (e.g., the estimate for the Russian EEZ was broken down by for the Atlantic and Pacific catches, and Canada and Mexico for west and east coasts).
On the mid- to lower slope south of Georges Bank, and within the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), are four seamounts of the New England Seamount Chain.
We compared approximated organic carbon stocks of adjacent continental margin sediments within corresponding Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) with those in soils for three maritime countries.
Although there are a number of studies of the level of IUU (Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated) fishing in individual fisheries (both EEZs and high seas) [3], [9] [16], only two studies have attempted to estimate the impacts of IUU over a whole region [5], [6].
One area known as the "Western Gap" lies outside the 200-mile EEZs of the United States and Mexico; this zone, slightly larger than the state of New Jersey, reportedly contains commercial quantities of oil and gas resources [155] and is a spawning area for bluefin tuna [156].
These three countries ratified the Kyoto Protocol and have potential activities that could impact sediment carbon storage in their EEZs, if they were managed.
Its government has been buttering up the other nine members of ASEAN, even though two of them (Malaysia and Vietnam) also have territorial disputes with it in the sea, and its nine-dash line violates the EEZs of two others (Brunei and Indonesia).
