In this paper, a dynamic model of fishermen’s compliance is developed and used to analyse
several issues. There are two parties involved in the fishery; the regulator and the fishermen.
Regulator takes on a long term view and sets quota at the beginning of every period in order
to maximise...
The preceding empirical research examines the traditional and evolutionary research surrounding youth deviance. Deviance is routinely discussed as an adverse impact in a plethora of theories and it is imperative to further develop the knowledge of deviance as society progresses. In this report, the utilized sample group approximately (n=13583) was...
Most young musicians are taught to read music as early as they learn to play or sing. The first few pages of any beginning band book show a circle on a set of lines and spaces, declaring, “This is an A.” Of course, the circle is not an A. “A”...
Selecting ‘optimal’ strategies to manage Oregon ocean shrimp is challenged by uncertain and variable natural mortality,
recruitment, and growth. Fishery management is focused on measures to prevent long-term biological damage to the stock,
to protect age-1 shrimp from overharvest and to sustain long term fishery benefits. Developing harvest strategies such...

Object oriented programming languages are noted for their ability to allow users to quickly construct large software systems. They achieve this ability by allowing the programmer to concentrate on what it is they want to do, ignoring details of how that functionality is achieved. Such characteristics should make the object...
Tins paper addresses the importance of different product farms and their origin when considering the market structure in the European salmon market. The competition between Farmed Atlantic salmon and wild-caught pacific salmon has received some attention previously. However, this was before frozen Atlantic salmon emerged as an important product form...
In considering fisheries regulation in the next decade, I make a concluding point that may become a major theme. This is that individual permanent catch quotas of a regulator-determined TAC are only a stage in the development of management from licensing to private rights (Scott 1989). The condition of open...
The clam, Galatea paradoxa has for decades been an important source of protein to the riparian communities of the lower Volta River and provides employment to about 2000 people, especially women. The fishing grounds have dwindled from 100 km from the pre-dam era to a narrow stretch of 10 km...

After 1950 traditional herring fisheries were revolutionized by a new technique: sonar, power block, larger
nets and bigger boats. As a result all major herring stocks in the North East Atlantic Ocean collapsed. The
most dramatic decline was that of the Atlanto-Scandian stock between Iceland and Norway from millions
of...
Norway has for years managed its coastal fisheries through a regime that for all practical purposes has acted as open access, that is, open for bona fide fishers. The trawling sector was closed already in the 1930s, and the large offshore fleet was regulated through limited entry licensing from the...
The topic of this paper is the Anti-Chinese Movement which happened in the 19th century in the United States.

Attracting, educating and retaining new engineering students is a challenge. The creative aspirations and "can do" attitude spawned by the space race, Heathkits, and homemade crystal radios have been replaced with the passive satisfaction of video games, cell phones and throwaway electronic appliances. At Oregon State University we have made...
Technological switching and re-switching has been the subject of debates within economics. Under
assumptions of malleable capital in economies with multiple sectors, the wage-rent envelope can show
multiple re-switching. The interest of technological change and switching behavior for fisheries
economists and managers stems from the fact that the control of...
Fisheries regulations on fishing capacity are usually based on a nominal measurement such as limiting number of vessels of a fleet. However, the nominal measurement of fishing capacity has difficulty in capturing the actual fishing power enhanced by technological changes and potentially leads to biased measures on fishing capacity and...
