  • Impacts of Marine Reserves in the Galápagos Islands: Some Considerations

    Creator:
    Stewart, Micki and Wilen, James E.
    Abstract:
    The recent establishment of the Galápagos Marine Reserve (GMR) presents a unique opportunity to analyze the economic implications of using zonification as a tool to manage conflicting claims to a fragile and limited resource. Recognizing that the long-term success of the GMR depends on the cooperation of all of the...

  • State Dependence in Modeling the Spatial Behavior of Renewable Resource Users

    Creator:
    Smith, Martin D. and Wilen, James E.
    Abstract:
    In marine resource management, spatial policy instruments, including Marine Protected Areas, are becoming increasingly important. The economic motivation for spatially explicit policy is that renewable resources generate, in addition to the conventionally recognized incentives to over-harvest in the face of insecure property rights, spatial externalities that distort the spatial distribution...

  • The Future of Aquaculture and Its Role in the Global Food System

    Creator:
    Anderson, James L.
    Abstract:
    There are only three fundamental sources for increasing seafood supply:  1) better management and utilization of wild fish stocks, 2) aquaculture and 3) aquaculture-enhanced ‘wild’ fisheries.  However, nearly all of the significant growth in global seafood harvest and international trade over the past three decades has, and in the future...

    Creator:
    Wilson, James
    Abstract:
    Manual beach seining is a widespread and popular fishing gear in Mozambique, targeting small pelagics and demersals and supplying exclusively national markets. The fishery provides employment for half of all marine artisanal fishermen in the country, and lands a significant proportion of total catch from the artisanal sector. The fishery...

  • Can Government Financial Transfers Ever Lead to Responsible Fishing? A (New) Trade Theory Parable

    Creator:
    Wilson, James R.
    Abstract:
    Recent literature on trade in fisheries products and in factors of production for fishing can be used to ask when it might be welfare increasing to encourage government financial transfers (GFTs) in the fisheries. Using numerical techniques and assuming a small open one factor 2 good economy with production inefficiencies...

  • Impact Reduction in Demersal Fisheries: A Multi-Criteria Assessment of Objective Priorities

    Creator:
    Innes, James P.
    Abstract:
    When attempting to mitigate the environmental impacts of a fishery there are typically multiple criteria against which the performance of any measures can be assessed. If the gains are non-commercial (i.e. non-market) in nature, formally determining how well measures perform becomes more difficult. This study applies the analytic hierarchy process...

  • Using evolutionary economics to explain predator-prey anomalies in the fisheries or explaining micky mouse's ears

    Creator:
    Wilson, James R.
    Abstract:
    The development of several sub-fields of general economics, including those of bounded rationality, institutional economics and the evolutionary economics, has expanded the scope and intensity of the dialogue both within economics, as well as between economists and other scientists. One of the more important preoccupations of early evolutionary economics was...
