  abstract = {{F}ish {A}ggregating {D}evices ({FAD}s) are man-made floating objects deployed by fishers to aggregate tuna and facilitate their catch. {C}urrently, more than half of the global tropical tuna purse-seine catches occur at {FAD}s. 







{T}he fast development of the purse-seine fisheries operating on drifting {FAD}s ({DFAD}s) has raised concerns regarding their impacts on tuna populations, on non-target species like sharks, as well as on the pelagic and coastal habitats. 







{C}onsequently, the management of {DFAD} fisheries is a priority for all tuna regional fisheries management organizations. {D}ue to the little availability of science-based advice to support management decisions, resolutions on {DFAD}s have 







been mainly based on precautionary principles. {I}n this study we propose a science-based framework for the management of {DFAD}s, relying on indicators and operating models. {A} set of models and indicators that help evaluate the ecological







impacts of {DFAD}s is presented, considering the case study of {DFAD} fisheries management in the {I}ndian {O}cean. {T}he objective of this framework is to assess and predict the effects of {DFAD}s on coastal and pelagic ecosystems, in order to support and/or evaluate past, present and future management actions.},
