Socio-economic Issues and Implications for Land Use. Canadian Journal
of Agricultural Economics, 43(1):133-148.
This paper reviews the effect of climate change and policies to
sequester carbon on forest land use. Efficient mitigation strategies often
require the conversion of agricultural land to forestry in order to sequester
carbon, but such strategies could be wrong for Canada s boreal forest region
if global warming is inevitable. It is argued that, from both an economic and
a social perspective, conversion of the southern boreal forest to grassland or
agriculture might be a better policy.

(1988-95) Statistical Survey. Food and Agriculture Organization of the
United Nations, GLOBEFISH, Fishery Industries Division, Viale delle
Terme di Caracalla, 00100 Rome, Italy, June.
The world market for small pelagic species is reviewed in tabular and
graphic form. The major species groups covered are mackerel, jack and horse
mackerel, herring, sprat, pilchard, sardine and sardinella. Landings are
reported by species and by major countries, by production and major producing
countries and by product type; exports and imports are broken down by product
type and by country of origin and destination.
Varaiya, P.P. (1972). Notes on Optimization. Van Nostrand Reinhold
Company, New York.
The objective of these notes is to present the main concepts and
techniques of mathematical programming and optimal control to students having
diverse technical backgrounds. An understanding of this material should
enable the reader to follow much of the recent technical literature on
nonlinear programming, deterministic optimal control, and mathematical
economics.

Mackerel and Cobia in U.S. South Atlantic Shrimp Trawls." Report
for Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic Fishery Management Councils,
National Marine Fisheries Service, Beaufort Laboratory, 101 Pivers
Island Road, Beaufort, North Carolina, February, 25 pp.
Estimates of bycatch of king and Spanish mackerel and cobia were
requested to be made for inclusion in the 1998 stock assessments of these
species by the Gulf and South Atlantic Fishery Management Councils using two
approaches to expand bycatch finfish samples with shrimp trawl catch and
effort information to obtain estimates of total finfish bycatch withing larger
temporal/geographic strata. First, expansion by trip and the second, finfish
to shrimp catches withing strata.
