Abstract
This paper summarizes some results of a Sea
Grant-funded economic input-output study of
marine-related activity in the Southern New England
Marine Region. Data were obtained from 390
personal interviews; in addition, a wealth of
secondary data was used. Type I and Type II income
and employment multipliers were estimated
for each of the nineteen marine-related industries
included in the model. The results provide
a basis to assist analysts concerned with assessing
the impacts on regional income and employment
of marine-related policies or developments proposed
for the Region.
