Non-market valuation research has produced value estimates for over forty threatened and endangered (T&E) species, including mammals, fish, birds, and crustaceans. Increasingly Stated Preference Choice Experiments (SPCE) are utilized for valuation, as the format offers flexibility for policy analysis and may reduce certain types of response biases as compared to...
Incorporating catch or harvest rate information in repeated-choice recreation fishing demand models is challenging, since multiple sources of information may be available and detail on how harvest rates change within a season is often lacking. This paper develops a framework for evaluating which source(s) of information should be used to...
One component of the Bering Sea Integrated Ecosystem Research Project
(BSIERP) is a spatial economic model that predicts changes in fishing
activity in the Bering Sea pollock fishery that may result from climate
change. Models such as the one employed here have been used in the
Bering Sea and elsewhere...
Species within marine ecosystems are known to be interconnected. This is
a result of many factors including predation and competition for resources.
Despite this, many fisheries are still managed using a single species
framework. This paper uses cointegration analysis to quantify the
relationship between different fish species. Cointegration is a...
