The report is an analysis of the resource rent in the Swedish fishery, produced as a contribution to the new strategic plan for the Swedish fishery in the years 2007-2013 according to the draft EU regulation for the EFF (European Fishery Fund). A model has been produced based on linear...
In this paper, we review our experiences in combining cross disciplinary, probabilistic information by Bayesian networks. They seem to be potential tools in combining the optimization orientated economic
modeling tradition to the somewhat different traditions of sociological sciences and further to the empirically orientated biological approaches. Calculus is based on...
In this paper, we study recovering processes for fisheries facing crisis or over-exploitation of a marine renewable
resource. We examine how to restore resource stocks and modify the economic characteristics of the fleet in order to
put on a sustainable exploitation system, near of some maximal standard as the Maximum...
We assess cod, herring, and sprat fisheries in the Baltic Sea under different salinity conditions using a bioeconomic model with simple predation functions. We compare the current fishing policy to an optimal policy under two different salinity conditions, which have a link to climate change. The fishery of these species...
In a 2009 paper in Land Economics, Roy, Arnason and Schrank used a newly developed methodology based on cointegration analysis to establish and measure the role of the fishing industry as an economic base industry (and the only such base industry) for the Canadian province of Newfoundland over the period...
The complex nature of policy decisions related to fisheries management actions undertaken for marine species protection results in policy makers frequently facing conflicting positions. For many management actions in Canada, a socio-economic impact assessment must be completed; this assessment estimates the impacts on the Canadian population. Two species-specific studies addressing...
The aim of this work is to develop a predator-prey model for two species of commercial importance captured by the Spanish fishing fleet in the National Fishing Ground (ICES areas VIIIc and IXa). In this model, the Southern hake (Merluccius merluccius) represents the predator, and the blue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou)...

This paper shows that the importance of fish habitat depends in part on the management of the fishery. Two cases of cold water coral - fisheries interactions are studied in a bioeconomic model setting: Norwegian and Icelandic redfish fisheries. The two countries have applied different types of management; Norway’s management...
We introduce a modified version of the standard Gordon-Schaefer fishery model. Standard theoretical models usually treat fishing effort as an aggregate measure encompassing all different types of inputs. Consequently, these models do not enable us to examine the problem of fleet redundancy and capital stuffing separately, i.e. two ways in...
