Title: Time-Dependent Quotas for the Southern Bluefin Tuna Fishery
Authors: Kennedy, John O.S.
Watkins, James W.
Issue Date: 1986
Series/Report no.: Marine Resource Economics
Vol. 2 No. 4
Abstract: It is now officially recognized by the governments of Australia and Japan that the southern bluefin tuna fishery has been overexploited and that harvests must be controlled. A dynamic programming model applicable to multicohort fisheries is developed for finding approximately optimal time-dependent quotas. Results from applying the model to the southern bluefin tuna fishery indicate that restricting or eliminating the Australian catch of under 4-year-olds would benefit both countries.
