Alternative approaches to evaluating multispecies fishery efficiency

Creator:

Coppola, Gianluigi, Gambino, Monica, and Spagnolo, Massimo

Abstract:

In this paper, the estimate of the productive efficiency for some Italian fleet segments is proposed. The estimate is based on a Stochastic Frontier Production (SFP) function and a Data Envelopment Analysis frontier (DEA) using micro data of fishing vessels. The essential random nature of the fishing processes under consideration...

Risk Analysis in Setting Allowable Harvests: Annual Catch Limits under the Magnuson Stevens Reauthorization Act

Creator:

Anderson, Lee G. and Semmens, Kathryn Alese

Abstract:

Under the reauthorized Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSRA), US fisheries management councils must specify an annual catch limit (ACL) for each managed species and institute accountability measures (AMs) to ensure that actual harvest will not cause the stock to be overfished. While the details of implementation are still being developed, a set...
