    Creator:
    Isaksen, John R. and Dreyer, Bent

In fact, few studies have in a convincing way demonstrated...

The reimbursement scheme stems from the late 1980s, and has been persistent since, under different governments. Here we provide the background for this support and discuss it’s...

    Creator:
    Williams, Meryl, Ridgeway, Lori, Grafton, Quentin, and Squires, Dale
    Abstract:
    Society has agreed on the goal of sustainable fisheries but achieving the goal is often submerged by more immediate national and international demands causing fisheries to slip down the political agenda or diverting attention to other fisheries issues, e.g., profitability under high fuel prices. Among the problems challenging marine capture...
