Abstract:: Many Fraser River sockeye salmon stocks show large cycles in abundance from year to year, but the causes of these cycles are not clear. As a result, these stocks have historically been managed under the hypothesis of cyclic dominance, i.e., maintaining the cyclic behaviour of the stocks. Biological studies and...

Abstract:: A comparative multi-fleet rationale of socioeconomic indicators is described aiming a potential incorporation into fishery management advice at an ecosystem scale.

We first reviewed previous economic and biological studies. We then used the theory and model...

Creator:: Munro, Gordon, Sumaila, U. Rashid, and Turris, Bruce
Abstract:: This paper puts forth the proposition that all catch share schemes should be analysed primarily through the lens of cooperative game theory, which has now been developed to an advanced degree in the analysis of international fisheries management. If the fishers in a catch share scheme are playing cooperatively, the...
