Figure 3. Results of global analysis of nutritional opportunity, seafood reliance, and economic opportunity.

Individual countries (n = 117) scatter along economic and nutritional opportunity scores on the x and y axes, respectively, where each point indicates the performance of a given country. Scores are scaled from zero to one (see ‘Methods’), such that countries in the upper right quadrant have both a high economic and nutritional opportunity for mariculture development. Size and opacity of country points scale with each country’s seafood reliance score, while color indicates a country’s geographic region. Countries referred to in the Discussion are labeled.
