The Pacific Coho salmon fishery : an intraseasonal and interregional economic analysis of the ex-vessel market

Creator:: Swartz, A. Nelson
Abstract:: The ex-vessel coho salmon market has been paid scant attention in the study of the salmon resources. This study is an attempt to advance an understanding of the variations of ex-vessel prices and landings during the coho season as well as between the various coastal ports where the fish is...

Entrepreneurship, policy, and resource use : the production of and competition for salmon

Creator:: Clark, Jerry E., 1949-
Abstract:: Fisheries economics is a recognized body of research which is characterized by the joint study of economics, the biological characteristics of fishery resources, and the policies (regulations) used in the management of fisheries. This thesis is composed of three papers, each of which is primarily associated with one of the...

The value of short run in-stream temperature forecasts : an application to salmonids in the Klamath and John Day Rivers

Creator:: Huang, Biao
Abstract:: Water temperature is an important measure of water quality, as well as a dominant factor affecting aquatic life within the stream environment. Elevated water temperatures can decrease the survival rate of fish in each life stage. Cold water species, such as salmonids, are particularly susceptible to elevated water temperatures. For...

Uncertainty, market disequilibrium and the firm's decision process : applications to the Pacific salmon market

Creator:: Lent, Rebecca J.
Abstract:: The Pacific salmon market may often be characterized by disequilibrium conditions and less than perfect information. Thus the study of the decision-making behavior, especially short-run pricing, of wholesale market participants in this industry requires the use of alternative models to the conventional, price-taking, perfect competition model of the firm. This...

An evaluation of alternative estimates of demand for and benefits from Oregon salmon sport fishing

Creator:: Hsiao, Ching-kai
Abstract:: The main objective of this study was to estimate the demand for and net economic benefits from Oregon salmon sport fishing. The travel cost method was used as the primary technique for demand analysis. Several empirical estimates of consumer surplus per trip and per fish were obtained from different estimation...

The accuracy, applicability and transferability of contingent valuation measures for nonmarket goods

Creator:: Berrens, Robert Patrick, 1962-
Abstract:: Despite several decades of research developments, the survey-based contingent valuation (CV) method remains one of the most controversial topics in environmental economics. As the procedure matures and more applied studies are completed, there is increasing pressure to make the results policy relevant. This research is composed of three distinct yet...

A spatially explicit model for allocating conservation efforts : the Grand Ronde River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Watanabe, Michio
Abstract:: The spatial and dynamic pattern of landscape changes has a profound effect on the supply of environmental services, including the provision of habitat for fish and wildlife. Spatial heterogeneity is a common feature of landscapes in the Pacific Northwest, most notably in areas important to the production of salmonid fish...

An economic analysis of alternative water allocations and habitat investments for anadromous fish production, John Day Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Cerda, Arcadio Alberto
Abstract:: This thesis focuses on the economic efficiency of alternative habitat, streamfiow, and land use allocations within a major drainage of the Pacific Northwest. Specifically, productivity of present habitat and streamfiow conditions is evaluated with respect to anadromous fish species (chinook salmon and steelhead trout) in the John Day River Basin,...

An economic analysis of the long-run decision-making behavior of Oregon otter trawl fishermen

Creator:: Herrick, Samuel F.
Abstract:: In the formulation of fisheries management plans required under the Fisheries Conservation and Management Act of 1976 specific attention is paid to the "capacity" of domestic fishing vessels to harvest the predetermined optimum yield on an annual basis. Capacity is interpreted in this thesis as the technical harvesting potential of...

Estimation of average and incremental net economic values of Oregon ocean sport-caught salmon : an aggregated travel cost approach

Creator:: Raja Abdullah, Nik Mustapha bin
Abstract:: The main objective of this study was to estimate the demand for and value of Oregon ocean sport-caught salmon fishery. The primary technique employed to estimate the recreational demand was an aggregated zone average travel cost method (TCM). The willingness of an angler to pay was deduced from the estimated...
