Subsidies are most often discussed within global fora (such as the World Trade Organization) in terms of concerns over trade distortions, if some countries gain an unfair advantage, through their subsidies, over unsubsidized industry elsewhere. In fisheries, this concern is matched by an environmental argument – that fish stock depletion...

Modern fisheries and aquaculture value chains are diverse, often complex and dynamic, with men and women undertaking different and changing roles depending on culture, concerning resource access and control, mobility, type of technology involved, the extent of commercialisation, and the product involved (De Silva, 2011). Female roles in Sri Lankan...
This paper explores the issue of using marine reserves in combination with quotas as fisheries management tools. The underlying biological dynamics are described by a patchy environment model, in which a metapopulation is built up by linked sub-populations that are distributed across a set of spatially discrete habitats or patches....

The way of individual (fishing) quota is now widely recognized as a useful way for fishing resource management. However, even in the (internationally) shared resources, distributions of non-transferable fishing quota for each country should be justified, shouldn't be? The research considers the logistics "to begin with" in the theoretical international...
When a resource shifts from one player to another, e.g. due to climate change, the conservation incentive of the player losing the resource decreases while the conservation incentive increases for the player at the receiving end. We set up an analytical model to study how the structure of the game...
