Balancing Efficiency and Risk with Flexible Catch Balancing Policies

Creator:: Holland, Dan and Herrera, Guillermo E.
Abstract:: In multispecies fisheries managed with individual fishery quotas (IFQs), fishers targeting certain species often have insufficient quota to cover other jointly caught species. New Zealand employs a unique dual price-quantity system to address this problem. In lieu of acquiring quota, fishers can opt to pay a fee per unit of...

Whaling in The Presence of Ecological and Market Linkages and The Threat of Boycotts

Creator:: Herrera, Guillermo and Hoagland, Porter
Abstract:: The activity of commercial whaling is contentious, drawing the ire of animal rights and conservation groups who threaten boycotts of whaling nations' products. Whaling also has opportunity costs: in addition to existence value, whales provide nonextractive use values, i.e. whale watching. On the other hand, proponents of whaling argue many...

Dealing with Uncertainty in Management of Fisheries: Contradictory Advice and a New Approach

Creator:: Holland, Daniel S. and Herrera, Guillermo E.
Abstract:: Fisheries management is complicated in nearly all fisheries by various types of uncertainty. Numerous economics and fisheries science publications prescribe adjustments to harvest strategies in the face of uncertainty. The conclusions and recommendations from this body of work are conflicting in many cases, are often dependent on critical but unrealistic...

Juvenile coho salmon movement and migration through tide gates

Creator:: Bass, Arthur
Abstract:: Tidal marshlands in the upper estuary ecotone provide essential habitat for juvenile salmonids. In this environment, salmonids grow rapidly and acclimate to saltwater. Worldwide, tidal marshes have been diked and drained to provide agricultural and residential land. Tide gates are one-way doors integrated into dike systems that prevent saltwater flooding...

An Investigation of Stage 0 Restoration in California and Oregon

Creator:: Schneider, Charles W.
Abstract:: Stream restoration efforts have increasingly started to focus on management actions that restore ecological function rather than focusing on species-specific habitat needs. Restoration practitioners in the Pacific Northwest have implemented numerous large-scale floodplain restoration projects to restore stream function at the valley scale. Some of these projects attempt to restore...

The Relationship between Hydroregime and Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) Spawning in Three Streams of the Smith River Watershed, Oregon

Creator:: Baxter, Mackenzie R.
Abstract:: Migration and spawning phenology of Pacific Salmon is linked to the hydroregime, and thought to be triggered by increases in river discharge and decreases in water temperature. However, little data exists that describes direct fine-scale linkages between the hydroregime and spawning in Coho Salmon. This study evaluated the spatial and...

The effect of landscape topography and in-stream habitat on the distribution, growth, and survival of Lahontan cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki henshawi) in a high desert watershed

Creator:: Boxall, George D.
Abstract:: Lahontan cutthroat trout (LCT) (Oncorhynchus clarki henshawi) are currently limited in their distribution to a patchwork of small isolated populations, the result of habitat degradation and natural variation in landscape and in-stream conditions. The objectives of this study were to determine how landscape level topographic features influence LCT distribution patterns....
