Establishing marine protected areas (MPAs) often results in fishers being
displaced from at least some of their existing grounds. A direct
consequence of this is that governments may be required to make
compensatory payments to the firms that are affected. Experience has
demonstrated that these payments can be significant, as...
In the quest to limit the bycatch of non-target species, marine protected
areas (MPAs) have been frequently utilized. MPAs are popular with
ecologists and fishery managers because of their relative ease of
administration, habitat protection benefits, and the widespread acceptance

Coastal resources play a significant role in supporting the livelihoods and contributing to the wellbeing of marginalised communities in South Africa. Through an analysis of four small-scale-fishing communities in South Africa, this research sought to understand how and why benefits arising from the use of coastal resources in the fisheries...
This paper investigates the welfare effects of random closures in a fishery
operating under open access. At each point in time, a fishery is facing the
probability of an extreme event that impairs fishing activities but has no
direct impact on the fish population. Examples include massive blooms of
dinoflagellates...

The paper will report on the development of a new set of wealth-based
Fishery Performance Indicators (FPI) for evaluating and comparing the
worlds fisheries management systems. A wealth-based fishery management
system is one that is ecologically sustainable, socially acceptable, and
generates sustainable resource rents or profits. The Fishery Performance
Indicators...

poverty, Madagascar has no large-scale domestic fleet. Consequently, it is required by the United Nations
Convention on the Law of the Sea to rent these un-exploited resources to distant water fleets (DWFs)
from...
