Creator:: Pascoe, Sean, Hutton, Trevor, and Hoshino, Eriko
Abstract:: The Australian federal fisheries policy identifies maximising net economic returns as the primary objective of fisheries management. This has largely been interpreted as maximising the net economic yield (MEY) in fisheries. For multispecies fisheries, this has been based on maximising the net present value of total profit in the fishery...

Abstract:: Closed areas are often used as either temporary or permanent measures to reduce fishing pressure on stocks. A major concern, however, is what happens to the effort that was previously employed in these areas. When modelling the potential impacts of the closed areas, it is necessary to model changes in...

Creator:: Pascoe, Sean, Dichmont, Cathy, and Hutton, Trevor
Abstract:: Australian Commonwealth fisheries have adopted maximum economic yield as a target reference point. A bioeconomic model has been developed for one key fishery - the Northern Prawn Fishery - and is used in the provision of management advice. The development and application of this model has highlighted some challenges for...

Abstract:: The Australian Harvest Strategy Policy requires that maximum economic yield (MEY) be the target in all Commonwealth managed fisheries. For multispecies fisheries, unlike single species fisheries, the optimal yield is not independent of the optimal yield of the companion species (i.e. those species with which it is caught). In fisheries...

Abstract:: Maximum sustainable yield (MSY) has been recommended as a reference point for fisheries sustainability. However, like other reference points it is generally applied on a single-species basis. This has potentially significant biological implications in a complex multispecies fishery. MSY-based reference points also have economic implications for fisheries prosecuting the resource....

Creator:: Thebaud, Olivier, Fulton, Beth, Hutton, Trevor, Innes, James, Little, Rich, Pascoe, Sean, and van Putten, Ingrid
Abstract:: With international efforts to develop ecosystem-based management of ocean uses, there has been a growing call for the development of integrated assessment tools, including the design of models which can be used to identify possible futures and evaluate alternative management strategies. Along with this, there is increasing recognition that such...

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...

Creator:: Prellezo, Raul, Andersen, Bo, Guyader, Olivier, Hutton, Trevor, Marchal, Paul, Mardle, Simon, and Thebaud, Olivier
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...

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...

Creator:: Hutton, Trevor, Guyader, Olivier, Prellezo, Raul, Mardle, Simon, and Thebaud, Olivier
Abstract:: Three case studies were included in a study on fishing vessels, most of which use trawl gear in demersal fisheries. The case studies include the French Bay of Biscay bottom-trawlers, the English beam trawlers fishing in the English Channel, Celtic Sea and North Sea, and the Basque trawlers fishing in...
