This paper discusses sustainable development of Yemeni fisheries towards achievement of Millennium Development Goals (MDG) and stakeholder aspiration. Yemen is considered a Least Developed Country ranking 148 among 174 countries in terms of the Human Development Index. In terms of food security, Yemen is classified as a Low-Income and Food...
Despite several factors favoring the development of haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) aquaculture, there is virtually no economic information on its feasibility. This paper uses bioeconomic simulation techniques to conduct an ex-ante impact assessment of the early life stages in haddock production. Using an economic engineering methodology, early life stages are modeled...
The connection of fish depending upon water quality, which depends on habitat, which in turn depends upon land use, is
accepted. This paper explores the land use to water quality part. Twenty years ago water quality was degraded largely by
point sources of pollutants coming out of pipes. Regulations, discharge...
A multidisciplinary team of scientists (Appendix 1) examined 10 of the 16 environmental benchmarks that are tracked by the Oregon Progress Board. The intent of the environmental benchmarks is to provide a fair assessment of the status and trends of Oregon's environmental health. The scientists were asked to clarify benchmark...
The Mekong River Delta plays an essential role to Vietnam’s economy in terms of both rice and fish production. Annual flooding water and a rich level of aquatic resources strongly affect about 10 million
local people, as well as extend beyond the boundaries of wetland itself. Flooding water and wild...
Western land development initiatives by the federal government led to a fragmented ownership in much of
western Oregon. A project to examine the feasibility of voluntary land exchanges between public and private owners to
increase ecological health of fish and other species in Umpqua Basin while maintaining timber supply has...

This paper begins by outlining the history of the Rules of Origin negotiations in the World Trade Organization (WTO), unfinished business from the Uruguay Round that is separate from the current Doha Round. The treatment of products of the sea is one of a large number of unresolved issues; progress...
From 1991 to 2003, number of fishing boats increased from 43,940 to 83,122. The average power per boat increased from 18HP/boat to 49.3HP/boat. Fishing productivity seems to be gradually decreased from 0.89ton/HP to 0.35ton/HP. In this period, the yield of marine fisheries has been constantly increased with an annual average...
