Using economics to allocate fishing rights between recreational and commercial fisheries in complex socioecological systems : a global review [presentation]

Creator:: Pita, Pablo, Antelo, Manel, and Villasante, Sebastián
Abstract:: Policy makers must ensure that regulatory frameworks contribute to the maintenance of resilient marine ecosystems. Recreational fishers add additional pressure on worldwide fish stocks to that exerted by commercial fishing, especially in coastal areas. Fishing tourism have an increasingly stronger presence in areas with growing numbers of permanent residents. Marine...

Discards and high-grading in the Icelandic ITQ system; A case control study of on-board vs on-land monitoring of catch

Creator:: Runolfsson, Birgir and Kristofersson, Daði
Abstract:: Iceland adopted an ITQ system for all of its fisheries more than three decades ago. The system has worked well in increasing the economic performance of the fisheries and, at least seemingly, the enforcement of the TACs. The Fisheries Directorate (FD) is aware of the potential problem of discards and...

External monitoring and enforcement and the success of collective property rights regimes

Creator:: Quezada, Felipe J., Chan, Nathan W., Pita, Pablo, Antelo, Manel, and Villasante, Sebastián
Abstract:: In this paper, we analyze how public monitoring and enforcement (M\&E) efforts affect the success of a collective property right. We develop a bioeconomic model to generate several theoretical predictions, which we test empirically by assembling and analyzing novel data on public patrolling and fishing activity in the Chilean abalone...

Bioeconomic benefits of managing fishing effort in a coexisting small- and large-scale fishery game [abstract]

Creator:: Zettermann Dias de Azevedo, Eric, Pintassilgo, Pedro, Valença Dantas, David, and Daura-Jorge, Fábio Gonçalves
Abstract:: Fishing systems provide employment, income generation, poverty alleviation, and food security. The coexistence of small-scale fisheries (SSFs) and large-scale fisheries (LSFs) increases management complexity. Management actions have ecological and social implications that must be addressed carefully. We applied a bioeconomic game-theoretical model to the four-gear mullet fishery in southern Brazil—one...

The Performance of Shared Fish Stock Fisheries under Varying Institutional and Socioeconomic Conditions: Evidence from the South Eastern Pacific Anchoveta Fishery

Creator:: Chávez, Carlos, Dresdner, Jorge, González, Nuria, Leiva, Mauricio, and Quiroga, Miguel
Abstract:: We apply the Fishery Performance Indicators (FPIs) methodology to the Southeast Pacific Anchoveta Fishery off southern Peru and northern Chile. Our basic model of analysis is a production function framework, where the performance outcomes are a result of the available inputs. We measured all FPI categories (outcomes and input metrics)...

Price volatility transmission in the value chain of fresh anchovy in Spain

Creator:: Jiménez-Toribio, Ramón, García-del-Hoyo, Juan José, and Castilla-Espino, David
Abstract:: This paper studies the price volatility transmission between the different markets along the value chain of fresh anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) in Spain. For this purpose, the prices at the ex-vessel market, the wholesale market and the retail market are considered. As a methodology, a Vector Autoregressive Model (VAR) and an...

Applications of artificial intelligence to support the decision-making process of seabream and seabass aquaculture companies [abstract]

Creator:: Luna, Manuel, Llorente, Ignacio, and Cobo, Ángel
Abstract:: Decision-making in aquaculture is becoming increasingly complex due to the need of taking into account large volumes of data, and to consider other aspects besides the economic ones, such as product quality or the environmental sustainability, which are sometimes opposing and difficult to integrate. However, the development of simulation and...

Seafood certification schemes in Japan : examples of challenges and opportunities from three Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) applicants

Creator:: Blandon, Abigayil and Ishihara, Hiroe
Abstract:: While there has been a global proliferation of marine certification schemes aiming to incentivize sustainable fishing in the last decade, the uptake has been comparatively slow in Japan. Suggested reasons include difficulties assessing Japanese fisheries co-management institutions, and reduced profitability from complex seafood distribution networks and mismatched consumer preferences. However,...

Changes in Marine Eco-Label Japan (MEL) through International Standardization and Comparison with MSC: Focusing on Vessel Size and Fishing Gears in Certified Fisheries

Creator:: Oishi, T. and Iwata, H.
Abstract:: Marine Eco-Label Japan (MEL) is a unique Japanese seafood eco-labeling scheme launched in Japan shortly after the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) opened its office to evaluate the management of Japanese fisheries resources by large-scale commercial fisheries and small-scale and diverse fishing gear. It became MEL ver. 2 and was approved...

Spatial Management to Reduce Entanglement Risk to North Atlantic Right Whales in Fishing Gear: A Case Study of the U.S. Northeast Lobster Fishery 2002-2009 [abstract]

Creator:: Bisack, Kathryn and Magnusson, Gisele
Abstract:: Despite the use of gear requirements and access restrictions to manage lobster fishery interactions with north Atlantic right whales since 1997, the population is likely below 370 animals. The Dynamic Area Management (DAM) program (2002–2009) used “real time” right whale sightings data to provide temporary protection using closures or whale-modified-gear...

Stability of international fisheries agreements under stock growth uncertainty

Creator:: Bediako, Kwabena and Nkuiya, Bruno
Abstract:: Scientific evidence reveals that renewable resource stock dynamics are subject to uncertainty due to changes in environmental conditions. Despite its critical impacts on management, little is known about the effects of such uncertainty on the formation of regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs). In this paper, we design a dynamic stock...
