Christensen, Steen and Niels Vestergaard (1993). "A Bioeconomic
Analysis of the Shrimp Fishery of Greenland in the Davis Strait."
Presented at the International Conference on Fisheries Economics,
Os, Norway, May 26-28.
Shrimp (Pandalus borealis) is by far the most important species in the
Greenland fisheries and the present basis of Greenland's economy (90% of total
exports and 30% of the world supply of cold water shrimp). To provide
guidance on the effects of yield from management measures designed to reduce
the quota by 20% for 1993, this paper presents a bioeconomic analysis based on
estimates of the total mortality, growth, discard, and the 1991 operating
costs that determines the resource rent and optimum effort of the shrimp
fishery in the Davis Strait. Effort must be reduced by at least 40% compared
to the 1991 level to obtain MEY. The gain in economic rent is estimated to be
at least 19% compared to the economic rent of 1991.

This paper presents a bioeconomic analysis determining the resource rent
and optimum effort of the shrimp (Pandalus borealis) fishery in the Davis
Strait taking into account the discard behavior of the fleet. It is
demonstrated that from an economic point of view the shrimp stock in the Davis
Strait is substantially overfished. To obtain the maximum economic yield, the
effort must be reduced by at least 40% compared to the effort level of 1991.
The gain in resource rent by reducing effort is estimated to be at least 20%
compared to the resource rent of 1991.

of the Gulf of Mexico United States: A Regional Management Plan."
Technical Report Series, No. 2, Gulf Coast Research Laboratory,
Ocean Springs, Mississippi, August, 128 pp.
The regional Gulf of Mexico shrimp fishery management plan documents the
problems and lists the goals and objectives necessary to manage the shrimp
resources of the Gulf of Mexico and provide optimum sustained benefits for the
nation. The fishery is described, shrimp producing zones of the region are
identified for preservation and improvement, and statistics collection is
facilitated. The report promotes research in bio-social-economic model
development, development of a regional management plan, and extension
education of shrimp fishermen.

(eds.) (1988). "The Menhaden Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico United
States: A Regional Management Plan." Number 18, Published by the
Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commission, Ocean Springs,
Mississippi, November.
The first regional management plan (Christmas and Etzold, 1977) was
adopted and implemented by the Gulf State-Federal Fishery Management Board in
1977. Results of ongoing review and evaluation of research and management
achievements warranted a revised management plan. The goal of the plan is to
develop a gulf menhaden management strategy that will allow an annual maximum
harvest that protects the stock from overfishing on a continuing basis.
