- 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.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
