Webinar by Takaaki Iwai
Fisheries are internationally crucial in food supply, so it is important to understand the origin of mathematical models used in the field. Kuzma Kirillovich Tereshchenko (1893-1930), who had a career background in politics, published a paper on bream (Abramis brama) population in 1917. This influenced famous On the Question of the Biological Basis of Fisheries (1918) by Fedor Ilyich Baranov (1886-1965) which is considered as the first theoretical mathematical model in fisheries. However, unlike Baranov, Tereshchenko is rarely discussed in the Western world. This talk will explore Tereshchenko and his unsung contribution to mathematics in fishery science.
