  • Flexible Seasonal Closures in the Northern Prawn Fishery

    Creator:
    Beare, Stephen, Chapman, L., and Bell, Rosalyn
    Abstract:
    Given high levels of uncertainty associated with fish stocks, predetermined access rights to the fishery may not deliver the most efficient outcome. Real time monitoring of the fishery could allow effort to be expanded or decreased in accordance with a set of performance indicators. The potential for using real time...

  • Climate Change, ENSO Frequency and Intensity, and the Gulf of Mexico Headboat Fishery

    Creator:
    Carter, David and Letson, David
    Abstract:
    Recent results from a vector error correction (VEC) analysis indicate that El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events appear to affect both red snapper landings and effort in the Gulf of Mexico headboat fishery (Carter and Letson 2005). A key finding is that the outcome of policy changes can vary depending on...

  • Economic Results of the Australian National Recreational Fishing Survey

    Creator:
    Campbell, David
    Abstract:
    Recreational fishing is a compound activity that includes the expectancy and catching of fish. The Australian national recreational fishing survey provides catch and economic data for this activity for the 12 months May 2000 to April 2001. In addition to catch behavioral data, the survey provides economic data for that...

  • An Approach To Managing Fisheries When Weak And Strong Stocks Mix

    Creator:
    Tomberlin, David
    Abstract:
    When weak and strong fish stocks are caught in the same fishery, managing for the protection of the weak stock may result in foregone economic benefits from harvest of the strong stock, while managing for the strong stock may result in overfishing of the weak stock. A particular complication arises...

  • Efficiency and Capacity of Fully Exploited Fisheries Managed Using Vessel Catch Limits Combined with Effort Restrictions

    Creator:
    Castilla Espino, David, García Ordaz, Félix, and Sharp, Basil M. H.
    Abstract:
    A wide range of fisheries are managed using vessel catch limits combined with different kinds of effort restrictions. This management framework is expected to have desirable consequences for the bioeconomic sustainability of fisheries. When appropriately implemented this approach produces outcomes that are similar to those associated with individual fishing quotas....

  • A Socio-Economic Toolbox of Artificial Reef Projects

    Creator:
    Ramos, Jorge, Santos, Miguel N., Whitmarsh, David, and Monteiro, Carlos C.
    Abstract:
    It is widely accepted that in sea bottom areas where there is a scarcity of rocky formations and declining marine fish due to fisheries pressure, the deployment of artificial reefs (ARs) is a possible way to mitigate the problem. If ARs have an ecosystem-based fisheries management goal that means their...

  • Toward Capturing Model Uncertainty in Bioeconomic Models

    Creator:
    Tomberlin, David and Woodward, Richard
    Abstract:
    A major simplification in bioeconomic models is that the model parameters and functional forms are assumed known. In fisheries, the failure to capture model uncertainty can easily cause overconfidence in model outputs and resultant policy recommendations. Although fisheries modelers regularly assume rather complete knowledge of the systems they study, in...

  • Fisheries in a Complex System

    Creator:
    Finoff, David and Tschirhart, John
    Abstract:
    An important subset of natural resource management addresses preserving and/or harvesting biological resources. Examples are policies that derive from the Endangered Species Act including habitat conservation plans, the U.S. Forest Service’s logging practices, and fishery management councils’ decisions regarding catches. To understand the effectiveness of management policies requires an understanding...

  • Duration Analysis of Fleet Dynamics

    Creator:
    Holloway, Garth and Tomberlin, David
    Abstract:
    Though long a standard technique in engineering and medical research, duration or survival analysis has become common in economics only in recent decades, and in fisheries economics we are aware of only one previous study. In this paper, we demonstrate the usefulness of duration analysis to understanding fleet dynamics, specifically...

    Creator:
    Haynie, Alan and Layton, David
    Abstract:
    Economists and biologists have recognized that spatial and temporal area-closures may provide an effective means of managing the impact that fisheries have on one another and upon threatened species. To date, however, little work has been done to estimate the economic impact of protected areas on commercial fishing. One significant...
