  • Licensed to Kill: Can we use Quota Markets to Conserve Seabirds?

    Creator:
    Pascoe, Sean
    Abstract:
    Despite substantial technological developments over the last two decades, incidental catch of charismatic species still occurs in many world fisheries. Short of ceasing fishing activity, some bycatch is inevitable. In some cases, populations of these species are at low levels, and in several instances the species have been listed as...

  • Capacity Analysis and Fishery Policy: Theory vs Practice

    Creator:
    Pascoe, Sean
    Abstract:
    The International Plan of Action for the Management of Fishing Capacity (IPOA-Capacity) was introduced in 1999 in response to growing concerns about excessive levels of fishing capacity and its impact on global fisheries resources. While debate in academic circles has focused on appropriate ways in which to measure capacity, the...

  • Economies of scale, excess capacity and potential rent in UK demersal whitefish trawl fisheries

    Creator:
    Pascoe, Sean
    Abstract:
    In the UK, individual quotas are imposed on the demersal whitefish trawl fleet. Many of the key whitefish stocks are at historically low levels, and there is pressure on the industry to adjust to remove the current excess capacity. Adjustment in the fishery is likely to favour vessels that are...

  • Impact of the Days-at-Sea Restrictions on the Profitability of North Sea Trawlers: A Restricted Profit Function Approach

    Creator:
    Pascoe, Sean
    Abstract:
    Days at sea restrictions were introduced in 2003 as part of the cod recovery strategy in the North Sea. The impact on the profitability of the fleet of the effort controls, however, is not immediately discernable, as the fishery was also subject to changes in costs, prices and stock conditions....

  • Student Engagement : Exploring How and Why Students Engage In- and Out-of-Class

    Creator:
    Pascoe, Jason J.
    Abstract:
    Student engagement in a course plays a vital role in a student’s ability to process and construct knowledge. Student engagement research has investigated how students engage in and out of the classroom on a macro scale, through observation and survey data collection of large student populations, which lack focus on...

  • A Comparative Evaluation of the Estimation of Effort-Profit Relationships in the Scottish Demersal Trawl Fishery

    Creator:
    Revell, B. J. and Pascoe, S.
    Abstract:
    Generalised linear estimation and multi-layer perception neural network modelling techniques were applied to the Scottish trawler fleet data in order to estimate which inputs have the greatest impact on boat profits and output. Both produced comparable estimates that revealed inelastic and non-linear response to vessel power and length, negative response...

  • Substitutability of Fishmeal in Diets for Salmon: An Optimisation by Simulation Approach

    Creator:
    Drakeford, Ben and Pascoe, Sean
    Abstract:
    The world’s output of farmed fish has grown steadily over the past two decades or so. Most notably in the UK, since the mid 1980’s, a rapid increase in farmed salmon production has taken place. Given that many of the world’s oceans are overfished, many see aquaculture as a method...

  • 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...

  • Technical efficiency in the Victorian Abalone Fishery

    Creator:
    Mwebaze, Paul and Pascoe, Sean
    Abstract:
    The Abalone Fishery in one of Victoria’s most valuable commercial fisheries and most of the catch is exported to international markets in Asia (Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, China). Target species consist of blacklip abalone and greenly abalone (<1% of total catch). The fishery is quota managed, and the total allowable...

  • Factors Affecting Technical Efficiency in Fisheries: Stochastic Production Frontier 'v' Data Envelopment Analysis approaches

    Creator:
    Tingley, Diana and Pascoe, Sean
    Abstract:
    Technical efficiency (TE) measures the relationship between a vessel’s inputs to the fishing process and its outputs, with full efficiency being achieved when outputs are maximised from a given set of inputs. Inputs can be physical (e.g. the vessel, gear, engine, onboard equipment, etc.), flexible (time spent fishing, size of...
