For a long time, Norway has had resource rent taxes on oil- and natural gas extraction as well as on hydropower generation. Recently, resource rent taxes have also been levied on aquaculture, and wind power generation. This paper, gives a short overview of the rent theory, the basis for rent...

Shrimp farming and exporting is the main income source for the southern coastal districts of the Mekong delta. Monitoring these shrimp ponds is helpful in identifying losses incurred due to natural calamities like floods, sources of water pollution by chemicals used in shrimp farming, and...

The Pacific Island nations heavily rely on the tuna fishery for government revenue and economic growth. Since the conversion of some nations to the Vessel Days Scheme (VDS) from the fishing Quota system, the region's domestic catch has significantly increased. VDS has stimulated economic return...

In this paper, we identify the main fishing grounds and track the response of fishing vessels' activity to tropical cyclones (TCs) in the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone during 2012. We use satellite imagery from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to locate fishing vessels...

To achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, research concepts and empirical evidence are needed to upgrade developing countries' smallholder activities within local value chains (LVCs). The study aims to uncover LVCs' (1) organization, (2) governance themes and gender roles for value addition...

The increase in sea surface temperature (SST) is one of the primary consequences of climate change and has the potential to impact tuna fisheries. This paper theoretically models and then applies the production function approach to establish a positive but non-linear relationship between catch...

Production of commodities based on open-access renewable natural resources (NR) has usually been examined under "low" congestion (LC) – where MC AC and both increase with output. I identify two additional congestion categories, "high" (HC) and "super" (SC) congestion – where AC is...

We exploit variation in the composition of local fish catches around the time of birth using largescale administrative and census data on adult cognitive test scores, schooling attainment, and occupation among coastal populations in Colombia to estimate the distinct causal effects of...

Extraordinarily high returns in a sector based on the extraction of a natural resource can be referred to as resource rents. This study uses the National Accounts and the definitions of the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting to calculate the resource rents in Norwegian aquaculture in...
