Many ocean fisheries are subject to a fundamental economic problem generally referred to as the common property problem. The common property problem manifests itself as excessive fishing fleets and fishing effort, depressed fish stocks and little or no profitability of the fishing activity,...

Ecosystem externalities arise when one use of an ecosystem affects its other uses through the production functions of the ecosystem.We use simulations from a size-spectrum ecosystem model to investigate the ecosystem externality created by fishing of multiple species. The model is based upon...

This supporting material for An Indicator for Ecosystem Externalities in Fishing provides the estimations of the cost model parameters, establishes a price model, performs sensitivity analyses of the cost model parameters and analyzes sensitivity with respect to the control variable.
