  • Comment on “Landing Fees versus Harvest Quotas with Uncertain Fish Stocks”

    Creator:
    Jaeger, William K.
    Abstract:
    In “Landing fees vs. harvest quotas with uncertain fish stocks”, Martin Weitzman maintains that the conventional view among both fisheries economists and fisheries managers is that “prices” are inferior to “quantities” as instruments for regulating the fishing industry. Weitzman takes the opposite position, appealing to two well-established ideas in economics:...

  • Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Coronary Heart Disease Prevention

    Creator:
    Harris, William S.
    Abstract:
    The evidence for a protective role of omega 3 fatty acids in CHD is becoming clearer and firmer, especially for secondary prevention. Intakes of approximately 800-1,000 mg per day appear to be a prudent approach for the latter group of patients. The safety of intakes of up to 3,000 mg...

  • Economic Potentials of Women in Small-scale Fisheries in West Africa

    Creator:
    Williams, Stella B.
    Abstract:
    In the past three and a half a century since fisheries development was embarked upon in West Africa, the significant contributions of women in sustaining the socio-economic livelihoods of their families has been neglected and taken for granted.

  • Gender Matters: Place Located Indigenous Knowledge: Finding the Value of Per Capita Earth Resource Consumption Necessary for Human Sustainability

    Creator:
    Alexander, William M.
    Abstract:
    Indigenous knowledge (creation of human well-being with a modicum of Earth resources) in India was augmented in the twentieth century with new technologies. The new technologies have raised Indian well-being, but these improvements has been insufficient to motivate Indians to choose families small enough to achieve human sustainability. Fortunately, within...

  • Is There Hope for Fisheries Management?

    Creator:
    Schrank, William E.
    Abstract:
    Fisheries is not the only discipline where models have been used in attempts to fine tune an aspect of the economy. Such fine tuning can prove ineffective because of the uncertainties in the scientific underpinnings of the models and because of the omission of critical elements. In fisheries, the biological...

  • Limited Entry on the High Seas: ITQs beyond Boundaries

    Creator:
    Sullivan, Michael S. and Nielander, William J.
    Abstract:
    Although the 1982 UNCLOS endeavoured to establish EEZs and assist coastal states in being able to manage the resources throughout their range to some extent, it became obvious that further agreements were necessary to expand upon states’ international obligations in relation to conservation and management of living resources on the...

  • The Fishery as Economic Base in the Newfoundland Economy

    Creator:
    Roy, Noel, Arnason, Ragnar, and Schrank, William E.
    Abstract:
    Historically, the fishery has been the mainstay of the Newfoundland economy. Inevitably, its importance declined as economic development proceeded, but was still quite substantial at the time of Confederation with Canada in 1949. Since then, however, the census figures show a precipitous decline in the role of the fishery in...

  • Decision making in a mixed commercial-recreational fishery for Atlantic bluefin tuna

    Creator:
    Goldsmith, William, Scheld, Andrew M., and Graves, John E.
    Abstract:
    Stated choice random utility frameworks are a valuable tool for eliciting the preferences of fishermen. In typical applications, choice outcomes are known prior to choice selection, which may confound results when outcomes are uncertain. To evaluate the importance of uncertainty in decision making, we applied a contingent sequential stated choice...
