“…Hence, our model responded to recent studies (Wilen 2000;Smith et al 2008;Diekert et al 2010) that criticized fisheries economists for too often using overly simplistic biological assumptions without sufficiently rigorous empirical foundations. Like Ives et al (2013) and Maravelias et al (2010), we used a fully developed stock assessment model that yielded MSY-based reference points.…”

“…A variety of frameworks have been built to carry out such evaluations, including life history modeling (see Deacon 1989;Heppell et al 2006;Smith et al 2008;Tahvonen 2009aTahvonen , 2009bDiekert et al 2010;Macher and Boncoeur 2010) and management strategy evaluation (see Dichmont et al 2008;Needle 2008;Bastardie et al 2010;Jardim et al 2010;Ives et al 2013). Despite the insights provided by previous studies, the literature lacks evaluations of the effects of suites of policy options on fishery outcomes.…”

We integrated two existing biological models and a newly developed economic demand model to evaluate the biological and economic performance of alternative policies in the Chesapeake Bay blue crab Callinectes sapidus fishery subject to the requirement that yield and revenue be sustainable. The resulting model was able to compare outcomes of alternative management scenarios considered by policy makers. In order to provide insights into the impacts of relevant policy components in a management scenario, we regressed the sustainable outcomes, sustainable yield, and sustainable revenues on a set of policy components. A short fishing season for female crabs combined with a long fishing season for males appeared to increase sustainable yield and revenue. Among size limit policies, lower minimum limits for males, females, peelers, and soft-shell crabs appeared to reduce sustainable outcomes, while a restrictive maximum size limit for mature females seemed to improve fishery performance with respect to both sustainable revenue and sustainable yield.

Gas emission and efficiency of an engine-generator set running on biogas

ABSTRACT:In Brazil there is a wide availability of residues, which have been used in the production of biogas and biofertilizers. The engine-generator by biogas is grid connected, and produce electricity for self-consumption and the surplus is inserted into the grid. The aim of the present study was to evaluate energetic efficiency and exhaust gas emission of two cases: two engine-generators sets of 100 kVA running on biogas, produced from residues of a poultry slaughterhouse unit (PSU) and swine fattening unit (SFU). Load variation in the engine-generator set was evaluated in the SMCP (system of protection and synchronism). There was an increase in the emission of nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide and exhaust gas temperature, in both cases. The elevation in the load of the engine-generator increased its global efficiency (mechanical plus electric), with levels between 6.12% with load of 10 kW and 20.91% with 70 kW. The average specific consumption of biogas in the load of 70 kW was 0.76 m 3 kWh -1 in the swine fattening unit and 0.80 m 3 kWh -1 in the slaughterhouse unit with load of 70 kW. The last results show an enginegenerator on biogas of 100 kVA (load of 70 kW), spent an average of 1.4 m 3 of biogas to produce 1.0 kWh of electricity.

“…There have been many studies on fisheries management using integrated bio-economic models [16][17][18]. Some of the latest studies have linked management strategies with spatial behaviour models to evaluate the movements of target species or fishers [19][20][21].…”

A transdisciplinary research of coastal fisheries co-management: the case of the hairtail Trichiurus japonicus trolling line fishery around the Bungo Channel, Japan

effects of various management scenarios were evaluated by the operating model. We found that co-ordinated management by both the trolling line fishery and purse seiners in the neighbouring prefecture was required to achieve targets. Two realistic scenarios are recommended: a conservative scenario that could achieve targets even with few strong year classes, and an adaptive scenario that protects strong year classes, but relies on a higher frequency of these. We shared these results with the local fishers and government officers, which led to actual improvements in management measures. Keywords Operating model · Strong year classes · Adaptive management · Fish distribution · Food cultureAbstract Under the coastal fisheries co-management regime in Japan, local fishers play important roles in deciding on and implementing local management measures. Therefore, using the case study of a hairtail trolling line fishery, we conducted a transdisciplinary research with fishers, processors, government officers, etc. Taking social and biological factors into account, we defined management criteria and targets (resource, economic, human community, and local food culture) in collaboration with local fishers. We chartered local fishing vessels to determine parameters that were easily understood by local fishers. We established a local consultative committee comprising fishers, processors, and distributors, and developed a fish distribution strategy to nurture the local hairtail food culture. The integrated
