The Open Database License (ODbL) is a license agreement intended to
allow users to freely share, modify, and use this Database while
maintaining this same freedom for others. Many databases are covered by

jurisdictions, mainly in the European Union, have specific rights that
cover databases, and so the ODbL addresses these rights, too. Finally,
the ODbL is also an agreement in contract for users of this Database to

The apparent changes in production for the three years sometimes represents real change in production, but it can also reflect a change in the methodology for how the production is measured (hopefully an improvement). In table above, the production levels for coastal commercial, coastal subsistence, and freshwater change significantly between the years, but some of that change is due to the way in which the production was estimated. For example, for the 2014 estimate of coastal fisheries production, the results of
the 2010 HIES were available.
