International trade of fish linking exports and imports

Trade data used in Nash et al. (in press). <br> International marine fisheries trade data for 2015 from Watson, et al. 2017 Marine Policy. This data links fisheries capture data to seafood exports and imports reported by FAO. Flows of fish in the global seafood trade are traced in tonnes by matching commodity groups to taxa and trading partners for seafood from UN's annual Comtrade data (1988–2015). Where no information on trade was available, WTO's primary trading partner data were used. Trade flows are identified according to importing and exporting country. <br> Data also provided for coefficient of variation of tonnage of fish imported by nations from 1976-2015. <br> Please contact Kirsty Nash (https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0976-3197) with any questions about the dataset.

本数据集采用了Nash等人（即将出版）研究中的贸易数据。
2015年国际海洋渔业贸易数据源自Watson等人2017年发表于《海洋政策（Marine Policy）》的研究成果。该数据集将渔业捕捞数据与联合国粮食及农业组织（Food and Agriculture Organization，FAO）公布的海鲜进出口数据进行关联。通过将商品组别与生物分类群以及海鲜贸易伙伴进行匹配，基于联合国年度商品贸易统计数据库（Comtrade，1988–2015），本数据集以吨为单位追踪全球海鲜贸易中的鱼类贸易流量。当无法获取直接贸易信息时，本数据集采用了世界贸易组织（World Trade Organization，WTO）的主要贸易伙伴数据。贸易流量以进出口国家作为识别依据。
数据集同时提供了1976-2015年间各国进口鱼类吨位的变异系数数据。
