  • Economic Values of Protected Marine Species: Empirical Studies and Challenges for Ecosystem-Based Management

    Creator:
    Lew, Daniel
    Abstract:
    The literature related to valuing the protection of threatened and endangered marine species using stated preference non-market valuation methods is summarized and examined. This includes an evaluation of the suitability of existing threatened, endangered, and rare marine species values as inputs for the analysis of marine and coastal policies, and...

  • Measures of Excess Capacity

    Creator:
    Primont, Daniel
    Abstract:
    Excess capacity or capacity utilization measures are presented in the multi-output case. Such measures can be either technical or economic. They may also be ray measures or revenue measures. The choice of the best measure depends on data availability and the policy use of the measure.

  • Managing fisheries without restricting catch or effort : the use of marine reserves for inshore fisheries

    Creator:
    Holland, Daniel S.
    Abstract:
    Although widely accepted, management systems that directly restrict catch or effort are neither efficient nor desirable for many fisheries, and have failed to conserve fishery stocks in many cases. Fisheries scientists have suggested that closing part of the fishery with marine reserves may sustain or increase harvest. These marine reserves...

  • Rights-Based Management in Gulf of Mexico Mixed-Use Fisheries

    Creator:
    Willard, Daniel and Abbott, Joshua K.
    Abstract:
    Commercial fisheries rationalization has promoted economic benefits and accountability to annual catch limits, but most recreational fisheries are managed under regulated open access with relatively poor catch accounting, short and unpredictable seasons, and persistent overharvests. For many mixed-used fish species, recreational fishing represents over half of total fishing mortality. Yet...

  • A Bargain for Tuna: Coaseian Solutions to Bigeye Bycatch

    Creator:
    Ovando, Daniel and Libecap, Gary
    Abstract:
    Many of the world’s most valuable fisheries involve highly migratory stocks that cross national jurisdictions.  These same fisheries face severe threats from direct overfishing or excessive bycatch. Traditional input and/or output controls generally have been costly and ineffective.  Incentive-based programs that provide tradable shares in an annual total allowable catch...

  • The Impact of Noisy Catch Data on Estimates of Efficient Output Derived from DEA and Stochastic Frontier Models: A Monte Carlo Comparison

    Creator:
    Lee, S. Todd and Holland, Daniel
    Abstract:
    There is currently much national and international interest in measuring commercial fishing capacity. Two quantitative methods that will likely be used for this purpose are data envelopment analysis (DEA) and stochastic frontier (SF) production functions. Although both methods can be used to estimate a production frontier, their underlying assumptions and...

  • Individual Habitat Quotas for Fisheries

    Creator:
    Holland, Daniel S. and Schnier, Kurt E.
    Abstract:
    Fishery managers in the United States are required to identify and limit adverse consequences of fishing on essential fish habitat. We propose a cap-and-trade system for habitat conservation that would utilize economic incentives to achieve habitat conservation goals cost effectively. Individual quotas of habitat impact units (HIU) would be distributed...

  • The Effect of Days at Sea Limits on Technical Efficiency

    Creator:
    Georgianna, Daniel, Kirkley, James, and Thunberg, Eric
    Abstract:
    Outputs and inputs during 1994-2006 in the USA Northeast Multispecies (groundfish) fishery—including days fished for a group of 47 otter trawl vessels fishing out of New Bedford, Massachusetts, USA—were analyzed to test the hypothesis that restricting the annual days-at-sea (DAS) of individual fishing vessels increased Technical Efficiency (TE). The results...

  • Optimal Effort Controls for the Multispecies Groundfish Complex in New England

    Creator:
    Holland, Daniel S. and Maguire, Jean-Jacques
    Abstract:
    It is rarely possible or desirable to maintain a constant target fishing mortality rate for each individual stock in a multispecies fishery. Preventing overfishing of all stocks at all times will often be in conflict with attainment of optimal yield for the fishery. This paper presents a retrospective analysis and...

  • Measuring the Economic Abatement Cost of Sea Turtle By-catch in the Northwest Atlantic Commercial Pelagic Longline Fishery

    Creator:
    Solis, Daniel, Bisack, Kathryn, Walden, John, Richards, Paul, and Agar, Juan
    Abstract:
    One pressing economic, societal and environmental issue affecting commercial fisheries is the production of undesirable outputs. In fisheries, undesirable outputs often arise because of economic or regulatory discarding of commercial species and/or the incidentally caught or ‘take’ of protected species, such as sea turtles and marine mammals. In fisheries, undesirable...
