Economic Benefits of Multi-Species Management: The Pelagic Fisheries in the Northeast Atlantic
Optimal management of herring, mackerel, and blue whiting in the North East Atlantic is analyzed. The main motivation is to quantify the potential gain from implementing multispecies management compared to traditional single-species management. The objective is to maximize discounted net revenue; in...
