A note on the ecological–economic modelling of marine reserves in fisheries

Abstract: This paper gives an overview of bioeconomic modelling of marine reserves, and illustrates how economists have responded to the modelling results found in the ecological literature. The economic analysis is shown to be far more pessimistic with regard to the potential of marine reserves as a fisheries management tool, than what one finds in the purely ecological analysis, the reason being the latter's neglect of issues such as discounting and economic incentive behaviour. However, the economic analysis, despite… Show more

“…In some analyses (Rodwell et al 2003, Sanchirico 2004, Armstrong and Skonhoft 2006, Armstrong 2007, habitat inside a reserve is better for the protected stock (e.g., has increased carrying capacity or lower natural mortality) than habitat that is outside of the reserve-even when there is no fishing outside of the reserve. The damage that occurs to habitat outside of the reserves in these models, therefore, cannot be due to fishing (at least not fishing on the target stock).…”

“…The literature provides several examples of production models that capture the particularities of each cultivation type (see for instance Gangnery et al, 2004;Canale and Whelan, 2014;Føre et al, 2016;Zhang et al, 2017). While many practical examples look at the private costs and benefits, recent approaches extend to the integration of ecological aspects of aquaculture (Armstrong, 2007;Drechsler et al, 2007). Nevertheless the approaches to date miss the importance of production management in an integrated manner that accounts for all the effects in a social cost-benefit context.…”

“…In these efforts several conflicts such as the scale of analysis, the communication between ecology and economics, and the implicit assumptions employed, have been identified in a way that explains the decoupling of these two disciplines (Bockstael et al, 1995). Recently, there have been proposed in the literature several integrated ecological-economic models for aquaculture characterized by lower complexity as compared to the biological and ecological models alone (see for instance Bulte and van Kooten, 1999;Armstrong, 2007;Drechsler et al, 2007). These models can be categorized into bio-economic models, models integrating complex environmental and economic parts and linear models (see Jin et al, 2003 for a detailed discussion).…”

“…-Tactical: precise models focused on specific aspects of the system (the main elements are captured in detail but others are typically omitted or heavily abstracted), used to inform tactical decisions in the near term (less than a few years) or in specific geographical locations. Typically, single or multispecies bioeconomic models [35]; effort allocation models [36,37] a good deal of effort is made to ensure that these models reflect the detailed dynamics of the parts of the system they are focused on, but they can lose relevance outside a small spatial and temporal window. -Strategic: broad and generally more inclusive in scope, these models usually include more elements of the system (for example, more species or functional groups in the food web or more human uses) and provide information in support of strategic planning and decision-making, typically in the long term or at large spatial scales.…”
