Abstract:: While the need to solve problems of overcapitalization and excess investment in fisheries is now broadly admitted, very little information exists on the level of capitalization and the structure of capital invested in the fishing sector. This paper presents the first results of a research program aiming at assessing the...

Abstract:: The objective of the paper is to briefly present a comparative analysis of trends in the characteristics of selected European fleets, observed over the last fifteen years, as an introduction to three empirical studies of the behavioural determinants of these trends. The analysis presented aims at (i) describing changes observed...

Abstract:: This paper proposes a formal analysis of the discarding issue including the sorting labour costs. Empirical evidences from an application to the Nephrops fishery in the Bay of Biscay show that sorting is an important time consuming activity on board and a factor of discarding. However existing literature does not...

Abstract:: This paper compares two methods for collecting data concerning professional fishing fleets economic performance : use of preexisting bookkeeping databases and ad hoc field surveys of fishers. Each method has its pros and cons and, for practical reasons, it may be necessary to make use of both. Such a feature...

Abstract:: The decision to enter or exit a fishery can be expected to depend on the anticipated profitability of operating in this fishery, as a function of observed vessel performances in previous years. For a vessel exiting a fishery, there may be several reasons including decommissioning, selling or operating elsewhere. Entry...

Abstract:: Fisher behavior can be divided into choices made in the short term (i.e. tactics) and choices made in the long-mid term (i.e. strategies). Random utility modeling (RUM) is well suited for the empirical analysis of these issues. In this paper, RUM is applied to a number of EU fisheries in...
