  • A Bioeconomic Model of Fishery-Habitat Impacts

    Creator:
    Kahui, Viktoria and Armstrong, Claire
    Abstract:
    A scientific knowledge gap exists with regard to how benthic habitat is affected by destructive fishing methods, such as bottom trawling, and how this impacts upon the productivity of commercial fish stocks. This article addresses analytically the effects of destructive fishing practices of a single gear fishery on a non-renewable...

  • Linking ecology, economics, and fleet dynamics to evaluate alternative management strategies for US West Coast trawl fisheries

    Creator:
    Holland, Daniel, Kaplan, Isaac, and Fulton, Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    Increasingly fishery managers are expected to take an ecosystem approach to fisheries management that accounts for the interrelationships of target species as well as non-target species and habitat. Fishery managers would benefit from coupled ecological-economic models that includes both the human and ecological aspects of the fishery and incorporates them...

  • Fisheries induced evolution. A review

    Creator:
    Reithe, Siv and Primicerio, Raul
    Abstract:
    Age and size at maturity are key life-history traits in a fish stock. At the individual level, age and size at maturity affect fecundity, growth and survival. At the population level these factors interact to affect the age and size distribution, the population dynamics and the productivity of the stock....

  • Fishing in a Shallow Lake: A Case for Effort Controls?

    Creator:
    Janmaat, John and Ruijs, Arjan
    Abstract:
    In many situation, fishing activity adversely impacts the state of the marine ecosystem, impacts which feed back to affect fish stocks. Some ecosystems appear to have multiple equilibria and exhibit hysteresis, whereby they can become stuck in low productivity states. We show how adding ecosystem dynamics to a classic fisheries...
