  • Optimal Batch Lengths for Barramundi Farming Under Seasonal Variations: A Dynamic Programming Approach

    Creator:
    Rupasinghe, Jagath W. and Kennedy, John O.S.
    Abstract:
    Key decision variables in aquaculture management are stocking level, feeding schedule, temperature control and batch length. In many management problems with an infinite planning horizon, the aim is to find the batch length which results in maximum return if the same batch length applies to all future batches. This may...

  • Fishery Management When Biological and Economic Disturbances Are Correlated

    Creator:
    Kennedy, Chris J.
    Abstract:
    Economists studying the management of fisheries have universally assumed disturbances affecting harvest costs are unrelated to disturbances affecting biological growth. This paper gives examples of commercially valuable species that are impacted reproductively and behaviorally by a single environmental variable (e.g., temperature), leading to correlated disturbances in current marginal harvest costs...

  • Interactions Between Climate Change and Fisheries Management in the Mid-Atlantic Bight (USA)

    Creator:
    Kennedy, Chris
    Abstract:
    The Mid-Atlantic Bight (MAB) encompasses coastal waters from North Carolina to Massachusetts and is home to many important fisheries. Two features make this region uniquely suited to study how institutions and climate change may interact to affect fishery outcomes. First, since the 1960s, the MAB has been warming at approximately...

  • Policy Options for Management of Highly Migratory Fish Stocks in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean

    Creator:
    Kennedy, John
    Abstract:
    Highly migratory fish stocks in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean are an important source of income for those Pacific island nations through whose economic zones the stocks pass, and for distant water fishing nations that target the stocks. Although the tropical stocks have been regarded in the past as...

  • Bioeconomic Modeling and Management of the Southern Bluefin Tuna Fishery

    Creator:
    Campbell, Harry and Kennedy, John
    Abstract:
    The paper reviews the management and bioeconomic modeling of the Southern Bluefin Tuna stock. It describes two studies using simultaneous, non-cooperative, three player games to predict revenue and stock outcomes generated by a deterministic, discrete, age-structured model of the SBT population. Two versions of the model, corresponding to biological and...

  • Landing Fees Versus Fish Quotas

    Creator:
    Hannesson, Rognvaldur and Kennedy, John
    Abstract:
    The relative efficiency of landing fees versus quota controls to achieve given escapement levels is examined. The criterion is profit per year over a given time horizon. The model employed is a discrete version of the logistic model where growth is influenced by a random variable. Simulations are used to...

  • Thin Wholesale Markets and Direct Marketing in Renewable Resource Exploitation

    Creator:
    Kennedy, Chris J. and Scott, Steve
    Abstract:
    The ex-vessel supply chain for fisheries has been recognized as an important determinant of value generation. In recent years, as the retail demand for fresh seafood products has increased, many independent fishermen have bypassed thin, monopsonized, or otherwise inferior wholesale markets by engaging in implicit or explicit fixed-output contracts with...

  • The Stability of Rent Maximization in the Western and Central Pacific Fishery

    Creator:
    Kennedy, John and Hannesson, Rögnvaldur
    Abstract:
    The potential for achieving sustainable and efficient harvesting of three species of migratory tuna in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean is examined. The stocks reside in exclusive economic zones (mainly those of Pacific island countries) and in the high seas. Most harvesting is carried out by distant water fishing...

  • Effects of Catfish and Crawfish Imports on U.S. Domestic Prices

    Creator:
    Kennedy, P. Lynn and Lee, Young-Jae
    Abstract:
    Recent increases in imports of catfish and crawfish have caused concern as to their impact on domestic prices. This study identifies the linkages between imports of these goods and U.S. producer prices. Increases in imports of catfish are shown to decrease related domestic prices. However, recent trends show a simultaneous...

  • Predicting Recreational Fishery Landings Under Alternative Climate Scenarios: The US Summer Flounder Fishery

    Creator:
    Kennedy, Chris, Steinback, Scott, and Lee, Min-Yang
    Abstract:
    This research develops a spatially-explicit model of recreational angler participation in an effort to predict outcomes for the US summer flounder (fluke) fishery under alternative climate scenarios, and inform adaptive management approaches. The mid-Atlantic coastal waters of the US have experienced significant warming in recent years, resulting in noticeable pole-ward...
