Jones, Albert C. and James R. Zweifel (1982). "Shrimp Fleet Mobility in
Relation to the 1981 Texas Closure." Marine Fisheries Review,
44(9-10):50-54.
This study was undertaken to provide information on the seasonal fishing
activities of the Gulf shrimp fleet. The study describes the mobility of
western Gulf shrimp vessels, compares fleet mobility in 1981 with that in
earlier years, and relates the results to the 1981 closure of the Texas brown
shrimp fishery. Companion studies in this series address the effect of this
fishing activity on catch rates and utilization of shoreside facilities.

Debate." Joint Working Group on Policy and Planning Implications
for Global Climate Change in the Pacific Basin, Pacific Basin
Development Council, UH Social Science Research Institute, March,
pp. 27.
This paper summarizes the background of scientific issues and debates
surrounding the climate change headlines. While the goal is to present a
balanced, reflective portrait of those debates, the overall message sent to
policy-makers and planners must still be the need to act now to plan for this
emerging global crisis. In other words, while various interpretations exist
as to whether the sea level is rising, it is abundantly clear to this author
that policies and planning for action must be developed soon.

(1974). "Impact of Commercial Shrimp Landings on the Economy of
Texas and Coastal Regions." TAMU-SG-75-204, NOAA Grant No. 04-3-
158-18, December, pp. 18.
The value of commercial shrimp landings for 1971 in the state of Texas
was $63.9 million. In the three coastal regions of Brownsville-Aransas, Port
Lavaca-Galveston, and Beaumont-Port Arthur in 1971 this value was $37.6,
$23.6, and $2.7 million, respectively. These commercial shrimp landings have
a significant impact on the economy of Texas and on the economies of the three
coastal regions. The estimated direct, indirect and induced impact of 1971
commercial shrimp landings on the Texas economy was $197.2 million in output;
$56.8 million in personal incomes; and 6,083 persons employed. Within the
Brownsville-Aransas region, the $37.6 million landings by the commercial
shrimp industry stimulated total economic output of $92.5 million. The $23.6
million landings by the commercial shrimp industry within the Port Lavaca-
