A Bioeconomic Analysis of a Wild Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Recreational Fishery JON OLAF OLAUSSEN
Abstract A biomass model of a wild salmon (Salmo salar) river recreational fishery is formulated, and the ways in which economic and biological conditions influence harvesting, stock size, profitability, and the benefit of the anglers are studied. The demand for recreational angling is met by fishin...
