Drawing on the method developed by Just and Pope (1978, 1979), this paper separately analyzes the marginal contributions of both regular input factors and climate factors to mean output and to production risk in Chinese inland aquaculture. Furthermore, the net change in output following a 1°C...

Production costs for fresh Atlantic groundfish and scallop processing are examined using direct observation, linear regression analysis, and cost accounting. Assuming that management chooses a production technique where marginal costs are constant over a wide range of production due to...

Throughout its history the North Pacific halibut fishery has experienced dramatic changes in season length—most recently a greater than tenfold decrease during the last fifteen years. This analysis estimates the effect on exvessel halibut demand of season length by incorporating it with...

Standard models of management of a single-species fishery generally assume that the biomass is of known size and that it is generated by a well-specified deterministicgrowth law. In reality the biomass is of uncertain size and usually subject to random growth. Several authors have addressed the...
