This study was commissioned by OWET to determine the possible economic benefits to Oregon and Oregon’s coastal communities from having a thriving wave energy industry. While wave energy industry growth will proceed along a continuous path, this study examines the economic impacts at three distinct stages: Research and Development Stage;...

As the British Columbia salmon fishery developed, the Canadian government, with constitutional responsibility for the resource, faced a number of critical turning points in management policy. In early years, partly for expediency, the allocation of fishing privileges often resulted in efficient levels of effort but little attempt was made to...
Atlantic salmon aquaculture is a growing industry in the Bay of Fundy on Canada’s Atlantic coast. The vast majority of aquaculture sites are concentrated in a relatively small coastal region of the province of New Brunswick (NB) where the industry is viewed as a major component of regional economic development....
The fish markets in Finland were formerly protected from international competition. The markets were gradually
opened to free competition in the 1990s due to the EEA agreement and EU membership. As a consequence, the importation of fresh salmon from Norway rapidly increased, and imported salmon captured the markets from domestic...
In 1996 the 1 billion US dollar Norwegian salmon industry was accused for dumping and for having received subsidies in the infant phase of the industry build-up. The accusations were initiated by the Scottish and Irish salmon industry, which regard the Norwegian suppliers as aggressive competitors in their home market....
The fish market in Finland has changed dramatically since the removal of trade barriers to the importation of fresh salmon in 1993. Imported salmon has rapidly captured markets from domestically produced salmon trout. Another clear trend has been increased concentration at the wholesale and retail level, which in turn has...
In this paper the focus is on the process of internationalization and globalization in the seafood farming industry. The development in the five largest and international farming firms is studied in relation to both traditional stage-theories of internationalization, and more recent theories, like the RBV, contributing to IB. Integration processes,...
Many Fraser River sockeye salmon stocks show large cycles in abundance from year to year, but the causes of these
cycles are not clear. As a result, these stocks have historically been managed under the hypothesis of cyclic dominance,
i.e., maintaining the cyclic behaviour of the stocks. Biological studies and...
