The paper estimates the impact of the farmer owned reserve on the demand
for year ending wheat stocks and demonstrates the potential of a little used
functional form for estimating the demand for stocks.
Shaw, Daigee (1988). "On-Site Samples Regression: Problems of Nonnegative
Integers, Truncation, and Endogenous Stratification."
Journal of Econometrics, 37:211-223.
This paper corrects an estimation problem that has not yet been
recognized in previous estimates of demand functions using on site samples.
There are three kinds of problems that one faces in on site samples, namely,
non-negative integers, truncation, and endogenous stratification. Two
theoretically correct maximum likelihood methods are developed based on two
different assumptions about the variable distribution: the normal distribution
and the Poisson distribution. A simulation is performed to compare the two
methods using generated data sets of known models. We should not use OLS and
instead should use the maximum likelihood methods developed here to estimate
demand functions that use on site samples. If forecasting is the purpose of
estimation, then the simulation indicates that the Poisson ML method may be
better.

Fishing Fleet to Changing Circumstances, Using Cautious Non-Linear
Optimization." J. Cons. Int. Explor. Mer., 39:231-238.
The cautious non-linear optimization model ascribes non-linear penalties
to deviations from a reference solution and any constraints that fail to be
observed and minimizes the resulting compound objective function using the
conjugate gradient method to achieve excellent results in modeling fleet
changes as a result of changes in the availability of fish resources.
Shelden, Kim E.W. and David J. Rugh (1995). The Bowhead Whale, Balaena
mysticetus: Its Historic and Current Status. Marine Fisheries Review,
57(3-4):1-20.
The bowhead whale, Balaena mysticetus, is currently listed as endangered
under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 and as depleted under the Marine
Mammal Protection Act of 1972. Literature on the species is updated since
1984, and elements are reviewed that may contribute to the evaluation of the
status of bowhead whale stocks.
Sheridan, Peter F., Frank J. Patella, Jr., Neal Baxter, and Dennis A
Emiliani (1987). "Movements of Brown Shrimp, Penaeus aztecus, and
Pink Shrimp, P. duorarum, Relative to the U.S.-Mexico Border in
the Western Gulf of Mexico." Marine Fisheries Review, 49(1):14-19.
Seasonal movement patterns of marked brown shrimp and pink shrimp
relative to the U.S.-Mexico boarder in the western Gulf of Mexico are
described from recaptures of shrimp tagged during 1978-1980. The intent was
to determine the degree to which coastal shrimp movements would affect
commercial catches after implementation of new fishing regulations off Texas
and Mexico. Shrimp were collected by trawl, marked with polyethylene streamer
tags, and released during March-November at sites between Galveston, Texas,
and Tampico, Tamaulipas, Mexico. Movements were examined by vector analysis
and by recaptures per unit commercial landings. Over 121,500 shrimp were
marked during seven releases in estuaries of which 1,827 (1.5 percent) were
recaptured. Only 72 brown shrimp and 126 pink shrimp were recaptured
