Abstract:: Under the reauthorized Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSRA), US fisheries management councils must specify an annual catch limit (ACL) for each managed species and institute accountability measures (AMs) to ensure that actual harvest will not cause the stock to be overfished. While the details of implementation are still being developed, a set...

Abstract:: The Gulf of Mexico (GOM) is characterized by fishery resources which spatially and temporally overlap in different ways with several important non-fishing uses including oil and gas production, shipping, tourism, habitat for endangered species, and economic support for coastal communities. Given this overlap, the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill affected fishing...

Abstract:: Understanding and quantifying the behavior of fishers is important given the role human behavior plays in fish population dynamics and fisheries management. Various quantitative and qualitative methods have been used to collect information on the behavior of fishers. This study discusses the benefits and drawbacks of three of these methods:...

Abstract:: The Florida reef ecosystem is a highly valuable resource managed by multiple federal and state agencies with many stakeholders. Over half of the $75 million annual dockside value of finfish landings in Florida is comprised of snappers and groupers, but this resource is threatened by overfishing. Current management strategies include...

Abstract:: The economics literature has recently turned its attention to the existence of gender differences in various aspects of choice behaviour. This paper focuses upon such differences as may exist in the valuation of environmental resources. Firstly, the paper presents several reasons why women are expected to have a lower willingness-to-pay...

Abstract:: In this paper, we use a common renewable resource model with stochastic growth to obtain three main results. First, we demonstrate that predictions of poor future environmental conditions lead to lower desired escapement (i.e., low remaining resource stock in place after harvest) and higher current harvest. At first glance, it...

Abstract:: Fisheries development projects are undertaken ever year in recognition of the important role fisheries play in many coastal communities. The objectives vary, but typically go beyond a limited focus on fisheries management and the ecosystem. This makes it difficult to evaluate the contribution of a project, particularly in data poor...

Abstract:: Since 1999, the scallop fisheries have been granted access to closed areas on Georges Bank, and the access programs have been managed through individual vessel quotas for scallops, and a common-pool total allowable catch (TAC) for yellowtail flounder bycatch. The scallop resource is neither overfished and nor is overfishing occurring,...

Abstract:: Many Fraser River sockeye salmon stocks show large cycles in abundance from year to year, but the causes of these cycles are not clear. As a result, these stocks have historically been managed under the hypothesis of cyclic dominance, i.e., maintaining the cyclic behaviour of the stocks. Biological studies and...

Abstract:: The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Reauthorization Act (MSRA) of 2006 (Public Law 109-479) amends the Moratorium Protection Act (Public Law 104_43) requiring the United States (US) to take actions to address illegal, unreported, or unregulated (IUU) fishing and bycatch of protected living marine resources on the high seas and...
