- Maturity Mismatch
- The defence transplants directly from banking: size the reserve — the minimum viable population and the harvest buffer — against the worst-case mismatch (generation time versus a bad season), not the average annual surplus.
This sourceIntroduces minimum viable population analysis — the reserve below which a population dwindles to extinction — supporting harvest buffers sized to viability/generation dynamics rather than average surplus.
