On the effect on cod and herring ®sheries of retuning the Revised Management Procedure for minke whaling in the greater Barents Sea
In a model with four species ± cod, capelin, herring and minke whales ± the ®sh populations are age and length distributed, while the minke whale is age and sex distributed. The time step is one month, and there are two areas (The Barents Sea and parts of the Norwegian Sea). There is a food-web with...
