eviews the historical and legal background and asks how far the now well
developed economic analysis of the management of transboundary fishery
resources in the form of resources "shared" by two or more coastal states will
take us in examining this second and more recent transboundary fishery
management problem. The answer is only a very limited distance. The article
concludes by pointing to questions arising from this resource management issue
demanding further research.

International Trade, and Intertemporal Welfare." Journal of
Environmental Economics and Management, 17:109-126.
This study examines the welfare effects of alternative price policies
for exhaustible resource markets. Dynamically optimal plans for resource
producers are derived under laissez faire, temporary price controls, and
import tariffs. The associated paths of consumer, producer, and aggregate
social surplus are compared to produce rankings of the policies. In the
presence of monopsonistic power on the part of a net importing nation, an
import levy can be optimal. In general, price controls are welfare-inferior
to laissez faire, unless the social cost of imports exceeds the private cost
by an amount that rises rapidly over time.

Performance of a Prawn Selective Gear. Marine Fisheries Review, 57(3-

Bycatch problems in the regional prawn fisheries and their possible
impacts on fishery planning and development in Papua New Guinea as a
developing country are discussed. The gear tested may offer enormous
ecological and economic benefits. The gear is multipurpose, extremely simple,
and can also be used as a biological sampler.
Kanninen, Barbara J. (1995). Bias in Discrete Response Contingent
Valuation. Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 28:114-
125.
The empirical literature on discrete response contingent valuation has
found that seemingly innocuous changes in the statistical models estimated
result in significantly different point estimates of willingness to pay. This
paper hypothesizes and tests several potential explanations for these results.
First, it investigates and compares the biases inherent in single-bounded and
double-bounded maximum likelihood estimation procedures and examines how they
react to various bid designs and sample sizes. Then, it examines the presence
and identification of outliers in binary choice data and how these outliers
influence estimation. Finally, it presents an alternative approach to
addressing the issue of outliers which explicitly acknowledges the possibility
of upwardly biased response probabilities.
