World Model of Living Marine Resources." Chapter 11 in Walter C.
Labys (ed.). Quantitative Models of Commodity Markets. Ballinger
Publishing Company, Cambridge, Mass.
A bioeconomic model has been constructed to determine how future
increases in world population and income will impact fish resources. This
model is essentially a set of relationships describing the main biological and
economic forces that determine the maximum sustainable supply of fish from the
ocean, the amounts caught and consumed, the prices, the costs of production,
and consumer income and population. Its contribution to commodity modeling
methodology is that it integrates relevant biological and utilization factors
into a single system structure.

"The Economic Impact and Valuation of Saltwater Recreational
Fisheries in Florida." SGR-47, Florida Sea Grant College, August,
118 pp.
This project quantifies both the market and nonmarket value and economic
importance of Florida's saltwater recreational fishery. The objectives are:
(1) to produce statistically reliable estimates of the value per recreational
day and yearly of Florida's saltwater sport fishing; (2) to provide a
demographic and economic profile of instate and out of state sport fishermen;
(3) to determine the impact of saltwater sport fishing on the Florida economy;
and (4) to identify regions of critical state concern with respect to a
decline in productivity of saltwater sport fishing in Florida waters due to
overfishing, pollution, etc.

Models: Alternative Structures of Travel Demand Models." National
Research Council, Transportation Research Board, 149:129-142.
A multidimensional choice situation can be represented by a simultaneous
or recursive model structure. The paper described assumptions of each
structure and argued that, in the absence of restrictive assumptions about
behavior, travel decisions are more realistically represented by a
simultaneous model structure. It is simple to estimate a recursive structure,
for each choice model contains fewer alternatives and variables. The primary
issues in the selection of a strategy for calibration are (a) whether
calibrating the simultaneous model is feasible and (b) what effect the use of
a recursive rather than a simultaneous model structure has on the estimated
parameters.

of a Simultaneous Model of Auto ownership and Mode Choice to
Work." Transportation, 3:357-376.
This paper describes the theory, development, and estimation of a
simultaneous disaggregate model of automobile ownership and mode to work
choices. The motivation for such a model and the general theory of the
simultaneous probabilistic choice model are discussed. The general model
specification and the set of choices assumed to be available to each household
is then considered. Finally, the variables used in the model are defined and
the estimation results are presented.
