elationships between price elasticities and price flexibilities are
examined with emphasis on comparing sizes of difference between a directly
estimated demand matrix and an inverted demand matrix. Results show that by
using inverted elasticities to represent flexibilities or vice versa, sizable
measurement errors may be committed. In agricultural policy and program
analysis, a directly estimated demand matrix should be used.

Flora and Fauna of a Basin in Central Florida Bay." U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries, No. 604,
May, iii+14 pp., 2 Figs., 1 Table.
One hundred ninety-six species of plants and animals are reported from a
nursery area for pink shrimp, Penaeus duorarum, in a basin of central Florida
Bay. Many of the organisms are benthic and associated with shallow beds of
turtle grass, Thalassia testudinum. Although abrupt habitat variations may
affect species distribution, the general distribution of organisms in the
basin and bay defines environments influenced by different water masses.
Hudson, Russell (1996). Statement of the Directed Shark Fishery
Association. Prepared for the Atlantic Shark Operations Team meeting
of August 27-28, Silver Spring, Maryland, Directed Shark Fishery
Association, 505 NW 90 Avenue, Chiefland, Florida, September, 3 pp.
Comments by the commercial shark fishermen s association on the proposed
regulation to reduce harvest quotas in the directed shark fishery delivered at
the shark operations team meeting. The quota reductions are emotionally
driven without a sound scientific basis, the existing quotas already have lead
to a stabilization of the shark stocks, other countries need to be involved in
the quota reductions, and juvenile sharks need protection as well as the
adults in the offshore waters.
Huppert, D.D. (1979). "Implications of Multipurpose Fleets and Mixed
Stocks for Control Policies." J. Fish. Res. Board Can. 36:845-854.
Management of harvests from mixed stocks and multipurpose fleets
requires the use of concepts not discussed in single species fishery models.
Optimum harvest of a group of mixed stocks implies that an aggregate objective
pertaining to the multispecies catch is maximized. This usually prohibits the
attainment of the maximum sustained yield or the maximum economic yield for
each individual stock. Operation of a multipurpose fleet is economically
justifiable when there are significant annual or seasonal fluctuations in fish
stock abundance. A simple linear model is developed in this paper to
demonstrate how the multipurpose fleet can be a necessary part of rational
management.
Huppert, D.D. (1983). "NMFS Guidelines on Economic Valuation of Marine
Recreational Fishing." NOAA, NMFS, Technical Memorandum, NOAA-TM-
NMFS-SWFC-32, June.
This guideline provides a rudimentary explanation of what an economic
evaluation of recreation is all about. The guidelines emphasizes the tactics
of producing a defensible statement of economic value rather than the
quantitative techniques and theoretical models needed to actually measure the
value.
