Fisheries Economics has always been an interdisciplinary field of
study with economic analysis based on stock population dynamics,
but many published works have focused mainly on theoretical
economic issues without much focus on biological details. For the
most part, age structured models have been ignored. Bioeconomics
of Fisheries Management is a valuable reference text that
presents the economic aspects of fisheries management in a broad
bioeconomic framework.
The book is broken into two parts. Part I covers the traditional
areas of fisheries economics, covering topics such as open access,
optimal and managed fisheries utilization that is analyzed through
a traditional one stock/one fleet model. It also presents the basic
results in terms of an age structured model. Part II covers
material related to more recent work on bioeconomic models when
more rigorous biological components became more prevalent, and
views fisheries management with an ecosystems-based approach.
Accompanying the book is a user-friendly CD with exercises and
examples that aids the reader in applying theoretical principles of
population dynamics and fisheries management and regulation.
Bioeconomics of Fisheries Management will be a valuable text
for researchers, fisheries economists, professionals, and students
alike.
