In an attempt to study the regional income and employment impact of different harvesting regimes and harvesting patterns of marine resources, this article demonstrates an approach of combining multispecies bioeconomic modeling and input-output (1-0) analysis. The applicability and usefulness of this approach is demonstrated by implementing the model with data from North Norway and the Barents Sea fisheries.
