  • Measures of Excess Capacity

    Creator:
    Primont, Daniel
    Abstract:
    Excess capacity or capacity utilization measures are presented in the multi-output case. Such measures can be either technical or economic. They may also be ray measures or revenue measures. The choice of the best measure depends on data availability and the policy use of the measure.

  • Managing fisheries without restricting catch or effort : the use of marine reserves for inshore fisheries

    Creator:
    Holland, Daniel S.
    Abstract:
    Although widely accepted, management systems that directly restrict catch or effort are neither efficient nor desirable for many fisheries, and have failed to conserve fishery stocks in many cases. Fisheries scientists have suggested that closing part of the fishery with marine reserves may sustain or increase harvest. These marine reserves...

  • Bycatch Avoidance under Cooperative Management

    Creator:
    Holland, Daniel and Martin, Chris
    Abstract:
    The US Pacific Whiting fishery is a large industrial fishery with landings over 260 thousand metric tons valued at $64 million in 2014. A catch share system was implemented in the fishery in 2011 with IFQs for shoreside vessels and allocations to a mothership and a catcher-processor cooperative. Bycatch is...

  • Profit effects in a rights based management regime

    Creator:
    Gordon, Daniel and Ekerhovd, Nils-Arne
    Abstract:
    Regulators in many countries have adopted quotas as a means of dealing with the open access problem inherent in fisheries. Unit quotas for the Norwegian purse seine fleet were introduced in 1996 but consolidation of licenses has been in place since 1978. The current Norwegian regulatory system does allow for...

  • A Bargain for Tuna: Coaseian Solutions to Bigeye Bycatch

    Creator:
    Ovando, Daniel and Libecap, Gary
    Abstract:
    Many of the world’s most valuable fisheries involve highly migratory stocks that cross national jurisdictions.  These same fisheries face severe threats from direct overfishing or excessive bycatch. Traditional input and/or output controls generally have been costly and ineffective.  Incentive-based programs that provide tradable shares in an annual total allowable catch...

  • Auctions for Initial Sale of Annual Catch Entitlement

    Creator:
    Anderson, Christopher and Holland, Daniel S.
    Abstract:
    When several new species are introduced into the New Zealand Quota Management System in the near future, some of the quota, or single-year annual catch entitlement (ACE), will be tendered through competitive auctions rather than allocated based on historical catch. This study uses a laboratory experiment calibrated to a representative...

  • The Impact of Noisy Catch Data on Estimates of Efficient Output Derived from DEA and Stochastic Frontier Models: A Monte Carlo Comparison

    Creator:
    Lee, S. Todd and Holland, Daniel
    Abstract:
    There is currently much national and international interest in measuring commercial fishing capacity. Two quantitative methods that will likely be used for this purpose are data envelopment analysis (DEA) and stochastic frontier (SF) production functions. Although both methods can be used to estimate a production frontier, their underlying assumptions and...

  • The Effect of IFQs on the Total Factor Productivity of the US Gulf of Mexico Red Snapper Fishery

    Creator:
    Solis, Daniel, Agar, Juan, and del Corral, Julio
    Abstract:
    The introduction of individual fishing quotas (IFQs) in the Gulf of Mexico red snapper fishery significantly impacted the way the commercial fleet operated. As result of the added flexibility afforded by the IFQ program, vessels began taking fewer but longer trips. They also began diversifying the composition of their catch....

  • Over-capacity, Regulation and Rent: A Norwegian Case Study

    Creator:
    Asche, Frank, Bjorndal, Trond, and Gordon, Daniel V.
    Abstract:
    Traditional fisheries management schemes provide fishermen with incentives to maximise their individual share of the catch, while individual vessel quota management schemes change incentives to maximise profits from their individual share of the catch. The way that one models the fishermen’s optimisation problem in empirical studies should reflect the changed...

  • The Effect of Days at Sea Limits on Technical Efficiency

    Creator:
    Georgianna, Daniel, Kirkley, James, and Thunberg, Eric
    Abstract:
    Outputs and inputs during 1994-2006 in the USA Northeast Multispecies (groundfish) fishery—including days fished for a group of 47 otter trawl vessels fishing out of New Bedford, Massachusetts, USA—were analyzed to test the hypothesis that restricting the annual days-at-sea (DAS) of individual fishing vessels increased Technical Efficiency (TE). The results...
