Marine Habitat Modification Through Artificial Reefs: an Economic Analysis of the Coastal Fisheries of the Algarve, Southern Portugal

Creator:: Whitmarsh, David and Neves Santos, Miguel
Abstract:: Marine habitats and the fisheries they support may be modified through the use of human-made physical structures placed in the sea. These structures ('artificial reefs') serve a variety of functions, ranging from the traditional practice of food production to newer applications which include mariculture, tourism and resource conservation. The presentation...

Aquaculture in the Coastal Zone: Pressures, Interactions and Externalities

Creator:: Whitmarsh, David and Palmieri, Maria Giovanna
Abstract:: Aquaculture worldwide has grown rapidly, and while this has brought socio-economic benefits to particular regions there is persistent concern over its environmental impact and sustainability. Within Europe there are quite marked regional variations in the intensity of marine aquaculture, and the fact that this occurs in areas where there is...

Economic Performance of Fishers: Stochastic or Chaotic?

Creator:: Pascoe, Sean and Whitmarsh, David
Abstract:: Economic performance of different fleet segments varies considerably from year to year, with some segments experiencing increased profitability while others experience decreased profitability. This variation is generally considered to be a consequence of the stochasticity in the industry. However, there is growing evidence that fisheries may not be as stochastic...

Husbandry or Hunting? Prospects for Co-managed Fisheries Based on Artificial Reefs in the Algarve (Portugal)

Creator:: Ramos, Jorge, Whitmarsh, David, Costa Monteiro, Carlos, and Neves dos Santos, Miguel
Abstract:: Fisheries exploited under open-access conditions create externalities, resulting in a range of problems associated with over-capitalisation and stock depletion. One answer to this is to shift the mode of production away from hunting and towards husbandry, an approach which becomes feasible where some control can be exercised over the resource...

Developing Artificial Reefs as a Possible Solution to Ameliorate Small-Scale Fishing Community Livelihoods: Some Case-Studies

Creator:: Ramos, Jorge, dos Santos, Miguel N., Whitmarsh, David, and Monteiro, Carlos C.
Abstract:: In southeast Portugal, some coastal fishing communities have experienced intensified competition for harvestable stocks, and this impacted with some severity on small-scale fishermen who are especially dependent on fishing for their livelihoods. In the last decade or so, various "structural instruments" have been created in order to address this particular...

A Socio-Economic Toolbox of Artificial Reef Projects

Creator:: Ramos, Jorge, Santos, Miguel N., Whitmarsh, David, and Monteiro, Carlos C.
Abstract:: It is widely accepted that in sea bottom areas where there is a scarcity of rocky formations and declining marine fish due to fisheries pressure, the deployment of artificial reefs (ARs) is a possible way to mitigate the problem. If ARs have an ecosystem-based fisheries management goal that means their...

Consumer Choice for Quality and Sustainability in Seafood Products: Empirical Findings from United Kingdom

Creator:: Jaffry, Shabbar, Pickering, Helen, Wattage, Premachandra, Whitmarsh, David, and Frere, Julian
Abstract:: There has been a growing interest in recent years in the potential use of product differentiation (through eco-type labelling) as a means of promoting and rewarding the sustainable management and exploitation of fish stocks. This interest is marked by the growing literature on the topic, exploring both the concept and...

Economic effects of marine protected areas on small-scale fisheries: a case study of the trawl ban in the Gulf of Castellammare, Sicily

Creator:: Whitmarsh, David B., James, Carl, Pickering, Helen, Pipitone, Carlo, Badalamenti, Fabio, and D'Anna, Giovanni
Abstract:: Despite growing interest in Marine Protected Areas, relatively little is still known in practice about their economic impact or their distributional consequences for stakeholders. The present paper, based on an EU-funded project, attempts to shed light on this issue by examining the economics of an artisanal fishery operating in an...

The Value of Fish Quality

Creator:: Roth, E., Nielsen, M., Pickering, H., Jaffry, S., Whitmarsh, D., Wattage, P., and Frere, J.
Abstract:: This paper aims to reveal consumers’ preferences for quality graded fish products based upon existing data on first-hand sales in Denmark. The data represents the value of fish for consumption as a non-differentiated private good. The objective is to measure the welfare gains to society of an increase in “quality”...

The influence of biological characteristics on fisheries co-management : a game theory perspective

Creator:: Trisak, Jiraporn
Abstract:: Co-management is considered an alternative approach to fisheries management, however, not all co-managed fisheries have been successful. Most studies discussing the success and failure of co-management have emphasized economic and social attributes of success and failure, such as fishery rights and institutional arrangements. The effect on co-management of biological characteristics,...

Fisheries Rents: Theoretical Basis and an Example

Creator:: Arnason, Ragnar
Abstract:: The concept of natural resource rents is much used in the natural resource and fisheries economics literature. It is therefore somewhat surprising that in this same literature it is difficult to find a clear definition of either natural resource rents or fisheries rents. Possibly, as a result, the concept is...

Membership attitudes to the evolving role of E.U. fish producers' organisations : subsidiarity or subordination in Shetland?

Creator:: Muir, James F., Young, James A., and Smith, Andrew P.
Abstract:: As the various mechanisms of fisheries resources management have matured, fishermen increasingly have responded by devising and developing different forms of collective representation. Within the European Union (EU), Producer's organisation (POs) provide a voluntary organisational structure which has evolved since its inception in the 1970s. During the intervening period, POs...

Resource management and trade policies: a two-country general equilibrium model of trade in renewable natural resource

Seldom have researchers examined the consequences of free trade in the presence of incomplete property rights over renewable natural resources. In this paper, we explore these consequences. In...

Fish Stock Assessment: an Inductive Science with the Logical Form of “Primitive Magic”: Replacing an Inductive View with a Critical Rational One

Creator:: Corkett, C. J.
Abstract:: A logical analysis of the common fisheries models used in stock assessment has shown that they produce specific predictions with the logical form of existential statements, fail Karl Popper’s falsifiability criterion, and so cannot be falsified or tested by the empirical evidence. By contrast, the theoretical models of fisheries economics...
