Optimal Allocation of TAC and the Implications of Implementing an ITQ Management System for the North-East Arctic Cod

First, we study the allocation rule applied to split the Norwegian total allowable catch for cod between coastal and trawler vessels. Second, we explore the bioeconomic implications of an ITQ management system for this fishery. A model combining a cannibalistic biomodel with cooperative game theory...
