Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands (BSAI) groundfish fisheries are hugely productive with 2008 – 2014 harvests averaging 1.6 million tons and generating $1.95 billion annually. The BSAI also hosts a commercial halibut fishery with 2013 landings of 3,500 tons and revenues of $41.5 million. Downward trends in halibut biomass combined with continued...
As fisheries management is increasingly required to consider the full impacts of their operations, this work seeks to define the relationship between fishing effort and interactions with listed endangered species. The study employs logbook data containing over 64,000 sets, matched with observer data from 2008 to 2015 in an undisclosed...
This study uses an econometric model to explain patronage of farm
inputs at cooperatives in a highly diversified agricultural region. The model
jointly addresses farmer purchases of six input categories: petroleum, pesticides,
fertilizers, services, feed, and seed. Explanatory variables include farm size,
farm experience, farm type, membership status farm location,...
While buybacks don’t have the cache of rights-based programs they are often pre-cursors to longer-term management solutions. The authors assess a proposed buyback program in Eastern Pacific (EPO) purse seine fishery that has the potential to increase post-buyback profitability, and which could also provide the means to alleviate long-standing internecine...
The Measuring the Effects of Catch Shares Project is a webportal-based effort that continues to compile and analyze data on ecological, economic, social, and administrative changes in groundfish catch share fisheries on the West Coast and in the Northeast. The purpose of the five-year project is to make the best...

Pandemic influenza viruses modulate proinflammatory responses that can lead to immunopathogenesis. We present an extensive and systematic profiling of lipids, metabolites, and proteins in respiratory compartments of ferrets infected with either 1918 or 2009 human pandemic H1N1 influenza viruses. Integrative analysis of high-throughput omics data with virologic and histopathologic data...
This document provides the abbreviated program grid showing a one-page summary of presentations made at the NAAFE Forum 2015, Economic Sustainability, Fishing Communities, and Working Waterfronts, held in Ketchikan, Alaska, May 20-22, 2015. The conference was organized by Keith Criddle and Quentin Fong, University of Alaska Fairbanks, School of Fisheries...
Guidelines for using style to improve computer program comprehension
have often been proposed without empirical testing. This thesis reports on the
results of three controlled experiments that investigated ways program style may be
used to aid comprehension of source code listings.
Experiments 1 and 2 were conducted using advanced computer...
