Although marine environments generally are not owned, those who use them for commercial fishing often are regulated. These regulations grant harvesters rights to use marine environments in specified ways, and the possibility of encumbering these rights to achieve conservation goals creates a potential role for marine easements. We examine this potential under alternative fishery management regimes and find, generally, that marine easements tend to be most effective when harvest rights are delineated most fully. Our analysis suggests ways that marine easements can have flexibility and transactions cost advantages over other approaches to achieve marine conservation goals. We also propose ways in which the design of laws allowing marine easements should follow, or depart from, the design of laws authorising conservation easements on land. 000161914 546__ $$aEnglish 000161914 650__ $$aAgricultural and Food Policy 000161914 650__ $$aEnvironmental Economics and Policy 000161914 6531_ $$aconservation easement 000161914 6531_ $$aresource economics 000161914 6531_ $$amarine habitat protection 000161914 700__ $$aDeacon, Robert T. 000161914 700__ $$aParker, Dominic P. 000161914 773__ $$q37$$o58$$tAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics$$j53$$k01$$dMarch 2009 000161914 8564_ $$971d97a95-4e01-465d-9d89-1c9cd39573dd$$s487212$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/161914/files/j.1467-8489.2007.00429.x.pdf 000161914 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/161914 000161914 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:161914$$pGLOBAL_SET 000161914 912__ $$nSubmitted by Adrienne Keiser (keise023@umn.edu) on 2013-12-20T17:36:36Z No. of bitstreams: 1 j.1467-8489.2007.00429.x.pdf: 487212 bytes, checksum: 9be2ef7571ecc64e0a013b02c9de3602 (MD5) 000161914 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2013-12-20T17:36:36Z (GMT).
