World Vitals / Marine resources and overfishing
Track fisheries, fish-stock status, aquaculture, and seafood supply indicators.
Fish stock pages require careful distinction between catch, aquaculture, stock assessments, and trade.
The primary charts now come from normalized database observations. Snapshot cards remain useful for latest values, but time series and paired relationships get chart types that match the question.
Database charts
These charts use normalized observations from the World Vitals database. Time-series charts show change; scatter plots show paired relationships where the data actually supports comparison.

The paired path shows the structural shift inside global seafood supply.
Each dot is one paired year. Hover or focus a dot for both values and the year it represents.
Metric snapshots
Snapshot and live-rate cards are kept separate from historical charts so they do not pretend to show a trend.
