Essential for Aquatic and Marine Biology Research
FFAB is indispensable for aquatic and marine biology research and institutions involved in marine regulations, management and policy. It includes 12 of the world's major fish and fisheries databases, including FISHLIT, Aquatic Biology Citations (ABC), Fishing Industry Research Index (FIRI) and Fisheries Review.
Records and abstracts are derived from journal articles, research reports, conference proceedings, grey literature, books, monographs, theses and dissertations.
Produced by NISC South Africa, FFAB also includes deep links from species names to FishBase which offers full-text species profies and fish illustrations for thousands of species.
