The bioeconomic analysis of shark bycatch in tuna fisheryChiou, Mei-Jing 27 January 2011 (has links)
Abstract
Because the number of sharks is decreasing , the problem has been concerned in recent years. In this paper , I conduct a research about the shark bycatch problem¡Ataking the target specie of bigeye tunas and the bycatch specie of sharks as the research objects . Initially I collect from 2000 to 2007 Atlantic bigeye tuna and shark catches datas for resource assessment.and then making comparasion with resource equilibrium values of open access fishery model and net present value maximization fishery model. it is found during the period it has showed a upward trend for bigeye tuna resources¡Abut it has not showed the bigeye tuna resources achive the optimal level. It has showed a diminishing trend for shark resources, the result shows the resources will face extinction crisis if the fishery is not controlled well. Then, doing sensitivity analysis to understand the effects of exogenous parameters to bigeye tuna and shark catches, resources and efforts. Finally, facing with the sharks bycatch problem , discussing the effect of improved fishing gears on sharks bycatch control by doing the sensitivity analysis of fishing hook cost and bycatch coefficient to shark resources and catches¡OFrom the results , it shows that no matter affecting the fishing hook cost or bycatch coefficient , the amount of shark can be reduced effectively
by adopting improved fishing gears.
