Creator:: Jardine, Sunny, Abbott, Joshua, and Sanchirico, James N.
Abstract:: In the past two decades resource economists have made great headway in understanding spatial-dynamic processes in resource exploitation and management. However, despite this progress, there remain large gaps in understanding the spatialdynamics of recreational resources. Here we first develop a general bioeconomic model of a renewable recreational resource use, under...

Abstract:: Parasites and diseases represent major challenges in aquaculture. In the Norwegian salmon farming industry, costs associated with treatment of sea lice are surging and reached 5bn NOK or 10% of the industry’s total export value in 2015. In addition to the direct impact on production, sea lice affect the industry...

Creator:: Haynie, Alan, Abbott, Joshua, and Reimer, Matthew
Abstract:: The Alaska non-pollock multi-species catcher processor trawl fishery, referred to as the Amendment 80 fishery since 2008, is an endlessly fascinating subject from the perspective of an economist. A diverse group of companies and vessels, emphasizing different species mixes from a multi-species ecosystem, targets fish across the Eastern Bering Sea,...

Creator:: Hutniczak, Barbara, Abbott, Joshua, Seong, Do Yun, and Fenichel, Eli
Abstract:: Fisheries managers are increasingly expected to manage fisheries in an “ecosystem-based” manner – accounting for ecological interdependencies across species and their coupling with the physical environment. Yet managers lack rigorous, bioeconomic EBM indicators to assess tradeoffs and measure whether the natural capital in exploited ecosystems is sustainably managed. We build...

Creator:: Abbott, Joshua and Willard, Daniel
Abstract:: Recreational fishing in the Gulf of Mexico has followed a familiar pattern to that observed in many commercial fisheries: fishing under regulated open access has promoted a “race to the fish” with cascades of shorter seasons, shrinking bag limits, and significant discards. These restrictions may have significant effects on angler...

Creator:: Abbott, Joshua, Lloyd-Smith, Patrick, Willard, Daniel, and Adamowicz, Wiktor
Abstract:: Many recreational fisheries are managed under regulated open access governed by seasonal closures and bag limits. This approach has often promoted a “race to the fish” with cascades of shorter seasons and shrinking bag limits. These restrictions may have significant effects on angler welfare by inefficiently allocating fish across anglers,...
