Exploitation: A Note." J. Polit. Econ., 80:1031-1038.
This paper reexamines the inference by Smith (1969) that the received
doctrine is unable to handle the situation in which a species may be exploited
to the point of extinction. The theory implies that short of zero unit costs
the equilibrium yield to competitive exploitation is never zero with an
extinct population.

White Shrimp in the Southwestern Gulf of Mexico." Transactions of
the American fisheries Society, 120:519-527.
The annual spawner-recruit relationship for white shrimp Penaeus
setiferus in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico did not show a significant
correlation (0.10>P>0.05) from 1973 to 1984. I attribute this to the effect
of environmental factors as well as to the interannual variability of
recruitment strength in the main cohorts throughout each year. A Ricker
stock-recruitment relationship was established for dominant cohorts in the
1973-1984 study period. The variance explained by the model increased from 70
to 82% (multiple correlation r=0.903, P
