This paper explores the possibility of using marine reserves to protect stocks subject to bycatch problems. The importance of migration rates and growth rates of both target and bycatch species and costs are analyzed. Pure open access equilibrium harvest of target species and stock level of bycatch species are compared...
Global warming is expected to affect the ecosystem in the Northeast Atlantic, and sufficient changes will also affect
the aquaculture industry. Farming of salmon and trout is the biggest aquaculture industry in Norway. The export
value was about 2 billion US dollars in 2005. The objective of the paper is...

To determine if diet affects the growth rate of juvenile ling cod, we began with three initial objectives: 1) Record the growth rates of juvenile lingcod on different diets (squid and sardine); 2) Determine if hemocyanin will cause lingcod skin and muscle pigmentation will take on a...
Assuming externalities from aquaculture to fisheries, we use a Verhulst-Schaefer model of fish
population-dynamics and production, coupled with an aquaculture production model, to investigate
effects on open-access and rent-maximising fisheries. Externalities are modelled by letting carrying
capacity, intrinsic growth rate or catchability coefficient in the fishery depend on aquaculture production....
