  • Measuring Economic Performance in a Fishery: An Index Number Profit Decomposition

    Creator:
    Fox, Kevin J., Grafton, R. Quentin, Kompas, Tom, and Nhu Che, Tuong
    Abstract:
    A method is introduced and applied to analyse changed in productivity of firms harvesting in a multi-species fishery. The index-number technique decomposes firm profits into its contributions and can be used to assess economic performance by both regulators and individual firms across an industry and over time. Using an unbalanced...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Protecting Fish Habitat - What is it Worth?

    Creator:
    Sampson, David
    Abstract:
    In recent years there have been increasing concerns that fishing activities might degrade the ability of the environment to support the long-term biological productivity of exploited fish stocks. Fishing gear that contacts the bottom may disturb the seafloor and the benthic organisms dwelling therein. The disturbance, in turn, may reduce...

  • Empirical characterisation of a commercial fishing cycle using structural time series methods

    Creator:
    McDonald, David
    Abstract:
    Structural time series methods are applied to modeling endogenous fishing effort in the German North Sea shrimp fishery. The effects on fishing effort of shrimp price, catch per unit effort and environmental variation are examined. Preliminary results suggest that fishing firms do not respond much to price changes but they...

    Abstract:
    U. S. agriculture is at a crossroads. The value of traditional agricultural exports has fallen while imports have increased. Concerns about the environmental impacts of current agricultural practices threaten profitability. As O'Connell (1989) pointed out in Choices , one answer to U. S. farm problems might be found in the...

  • Solving Real Options Models of Fisheries Investment When Salvage Value Is Difficult to Estimate

    Creator:
    Tomberlin, David and Bosetti, Valentina
    Abstract:
    Real options models arguably provide a useful framework for understanding individual fishermen's investment decisions, which play an important role in fisheries management issues ranging from capacity reduction to stock assessment. While these models appear to predict actual behavior reasonably well, one important difficulty in applying them is that the salvage...
