Developing country fisheries serve many functions, from feeding the poor, sustaining local communities and providing employment to generating export earnings. Yet, despite their importance, most countries have largely failed to ensure sustainable fishery systems and livelihoods for the millions of people dependent on them. Classically, management has concentrated on the...

Roberta Hall was part of an OSU [Oregon State University team that made exchange visits with women scholars in Nepal from 1995 through 1997. She spent Jan.-March of 1997 in Nepal and brought back extensive notes from observations and interviews; a bibliography on prehistory, current environmental problems, and women’s concerns;...

Every fish species is part of a complex ecosystem which competes with
other species for resources. Likewise, the harvesting of fish species often
involves technological interactions which results in catching multiple
species as well as temporal interactions between species as fishermen
allocate their effort across multiple fisheries over the course...
Focus is published by Oregon State University College of Forestry. Our goal is to keep Forestry alumni, friends, faculty, staff, and students informed about the College of Forestry and its many activities and programs.
This paper develops a count data model of target species and bycatch
production for an arbitrary number of species that handles correlation
between species and over time. The model is applied to a large observer
dataset for fishing trips taken from 1990 to 2008 for roughly 150 vessels
participating in...
The US Magnuson-Stevens Act authorizes the use of onboard observers to
monitor commercial fisheries catch and bycatch (PFMC 2003). A question
of concern in implementing an observer program is that of the appropriate
level of observer coverage. Current practice varies by fishery; for example,
the California-Oregon drift gillnet fishery for...

Increased demands on our coastal ecosystems, due to increased
development, over-fishing and population growth are threatening many
environmental goods and the amenities associated with these well
functioning ecosystems. Few to no markets exist for ecosystem services,
such as those provided by healthy sea grass beds or water quality benefits
associated...
We show that various procedures surrounding the administration of U.S. antidumping (AD) cases gives firms incentives to
pass-through AD duties as much as 200 percent and that exchange rate pass-through is likely altered when firms face AD
duties. While our predictions are general for any firms or products involved in...
Catches and prices from many fisheries exhibit high inter-annual variability leading to variability in the income derived by fishery participants and communities dependent on the fisheries. The economic risk posed by this variability might be mitigated in some cases if individuals and communities participate in several different fisheries, particularly if...

Climate warming is projected to affect forest water yields but the effects are expected to vary. We investigated how forest
type and age affect water yield resilience to climate warming. To answer this question, we examined the variability in historical
water yields at long-term experimental catchments across Canada and the...
Worldwide measurements of nearly 130C3 species covering all

model simulations to determine the effects of mesophyll
conductance (gm) on photosynthetic parameters and their
relationships estimated from A/Ci curves. We find that an
