Creator:: Simmonds, John and Anderson, John
Abstract:: In 1995 North Sea herring was estimated to have declined from previous high of around 1.5 million to 400,000 tonnes, the point at which significant reduction in recruitment had previously been observed. The response to this was to cut the fishery by reducing the human consumption TAC by 50% and...

Creator:: Boyce, John R.
Abstract:: This paper considers the regulation of a natural resource within a dynamic common agency framework. In setting harvest quotas, the regulator responds to lobbying pressure (contributions) from harvesters and conservationists. The truthful Markov perfect equilibrium stock is then an increasing function of the effective political weight for conservationists. Since the...

Abstract:: Information on economic viability of aquaculture is crucial for investors when assessing the feasibility of an aquaculture investment. Unfortunately, such information has been scarce in Nigeria. The economic analysis of fish farming in Osun State, South-Western Nigeria was therefore carried out using data collected from seventy two randomly selected fish...

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...

Creator:: Anderson, John
Abstract:: Community quota schemes (CQS) have been introduced in some UK fishery dependent areas in an attempt to address the detrimental effects of the current market based approach to quota management. The most established and largest scheme operates in the Shetland Isles, where there was concern quota holdings could be traded...

Creator:: Ward, John
Abstract:: Excess capacity results because fishermen do not have an incentive to conserve fish in-the-sea causing them to over-invest in the capital used to harvest fish as well as other production or factor inputs.1 Excess capacity like overcapitalization and overfishing is a symptom of our regulated, open access fishery management system....

Creator:: Walden, John B. and Kirkley, James
Abstract:: Measurement of capacity in marine fisheries is an important activity. An economic definition of capacity is the output level corresponding to the tangency between the long-run and short-run average cost curves. A technological-engineering definition is the maximum output per unit of time provided variable inputs are unrestricted. Although cost data...

Creator:: Harms, John and Sylvia, Gil
Abstract:: Cooperative research, the active participation of industry in scientific research, is receiving increased attention as an alternative to traditional government-sponsored methods. Its strongest attributes are its potential to improve spatial and temporal collection of fishery data while reducing some research costs. Despite these potential benefits, there are obstacles to adopting...
