Some scholars argue that mangrove loss always occurs with fisheries production reduction, but I have not found references with field or experimental data assessing the magnitude of damage.

Many thanks Dola, I already knew some of them, and also a paper from Pauly, that it is mentioned on the last reference you gave me, that concludes the same that Pauly and Ingles 1986 (one of your references), but this last includes very useful data and notes. Thank you again.
Hi Arturo,
Check these other two by Octavio Aburto:
