  • Bringing Fisheries and Aquaculture into Coordinated Global and Regional Assessments of Food and Nutritional Security

    Creator:
    Antle, John and Capalbo, Susan M.
    Abstract:
    Assessment studies have summarized the literature on global food security and projected impacts of climate and other major drivers of regional and global change in the 21st Century (IPCC, USDA).  Additionally, the Agricultural Model Inter-comparison and Improvement Project (AgMIP) is working to develop new coordinated global and regional assessments of...

  • Indirect Benefits and Fisheries Management-A Case Study in the Mid Atlantic Region

    Creator:
    Gates, John M. and Mazotta, Marisa
    Abstract:
    Indirect benefits have a long history in the literature of benefit-cost (B-C) analysis. A commonmeasurement tool for indirect benefits is the Leontief or Input Output Model (I-O), and this paper discussesindirect benefits as if they are identical to I-O analysis. The B-C literature disparages I-O for assessing theeconomic efficiency of...

  • Virtual Populations: A New Arrow in The Quiver of Rights-Based Fishing

    Creator:
    Lee, Jungsam and Gates, John M.
    Abstract:
    Quota management systems (QMS) provide faith-based incentives for individual quota holders to conserve the resource voluntarily; quota holders expect the system to work and to be enforced and their expectations are usually realized despite imperfect incentives and significant enforcement burdens. Even with QMS there is never an individual incentive to...

  • A Vessel Cost Sampling Model

    Creator:
    Gates, John M. and Kitts, Andrew
    Abstract:
    The Social Sciences Branch (SSB) of NOAA’s Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC) uses economic data to estimate the economic impacts of fisheries regulatory actions. Since 1995, the Northeast Fisheries Observer Program has collected trip cost information from commercial fishing vessels on which observers have been deployed. However, the allocation of...

  • The Benefit of Hindsight; An Evaluation of North Sea Herring Management Plans From 1995 to the Present

    Creator:
    Simmonds, John and Anderson, John
    Abstract:
    In 1995 North Sea herring was estimated to have declined from previous high of around 1.5 million to 400,000 tonnes, the point at which significant reduction in recruitment had previously been observed. The response to this was to cut the fishery by reducing the human consumption TAC by 50% and...

  • Environmental Factors and Natural Resource Stock: Atlantic Herring Case

    Creator:
    Cho, Jung-Hee and Gates, John M.
    Abstract:
    Herring is an important stock as bait for lobster fisheries and a component of the food web of the Northwest Atlantic Ocean. However, herring is very vulnerable to environmental variables such as temperature, food supply, and to the type of sediment on the bottom floor. Egg and larval stage herring...

  • Economic Analysis of Fish Farming in Osun State, South-Western Nigeria

    Creator:
    Olasunkanmi, John Bunmi
    Abstract:
    Information on economic viability of aquaculture is crucial for investors when assessing the feasibility of an aquaculture investment. Unfortunately, such information has been scarce in Nigeria. The economic analysis of fish farming in Osun State, South-Western Nigeria was therefore carried out using data collected from seventy two randomly selected fish...

  • Buyback Auctions: Possibilities

    Creator:
    Ledyard, John
    Abstract:
    Buyback auctions are often proposed as a policy to reduce excess capacity in fishing fleets prior to or in place of implementing a tradable quota program.  In this paper I take a critical look at possible designs for such a policy in environments with uncertainty and asymmetric information.  In an...

  • Conservation for Sale: A Dynamic Common Agency Model of Natural Resource Regulation

    Creator:
    Boyce, John R.
    Abstract:
    This paper considers the regulation of a natural resource within a dynamic common agency framework. In setting harvest quotas, the regulator responds to lobbying pressure (contributions) from harvesters and conservationists. The truthful Markov perfect equilibrium stock is then an increasing function of the effective political weight for conservationists. Since the...

  • Enforcement Program Optimisation Through Adaptive Management

    Creator:
    McKinlay, John P.
    Abstract:
    Western Australia operates a diverse enforcement and education program aimed at achieving high compliance in a wide range of commercial and recreational fisheries managed using a mix of input and output controls. Since enforcement resources are invariably insufficient to totally eliminate non-compliance with fishery rules, it is important to ensure...
