In this paper we demonstrate a probabilistic management model to evaluate potential management plans for Baltic salmon fisheries. The analysis is based on several studies carried out by scientists from respective disciplines. The main part consisted of biological and ecological stock assessment with integrated economic analysis of the commercial fisheries. Recreational fisheries were evaluated separately. Finally, a sociological study was conducted aimed at understanding stakeholder perspectives and potential commitment to alternative management plans. In order to synthesize the findings from these disparate studies a Bayesian Belief Network (BBN) methodology is used. The ranking of management options can depend on the stakeholder perspective. The trade-offs can be analysed quantitatively with the BBN model by combining, according to the decision maker’s set of priorities, utility functions that represent stakeholders’ views. We show how BBN can be used to evaluate robustness of management decisions to different priorities and various sources of uncertainty. In particular, the importance of sociological studies in quantifying uncertainty about the commitment of fishermen to management plans is highlighted by modelling the link between commitment and implementation success. 000059093 546__ $$aEnglish 000059093 650__ $$aResource/Energy Economics and Policy 000059093 6531_ $$aBaltic salmon 000059093 6531_ $$abio-economic modelling 000059093 6531_ $$aBayesian Belief Network 000059093 6531_ $$aexpert knowledge 000059093 6531_ $$afisheries management 000059093 6531_ $$acommitment and implementation uncertainty 000059093 6531_ $$amanagement plan 000059093 6531_ $$arecreational fisheries 000059093 6531_ $$astakeholders. 000059093 700__ $$aLevontin, Polina 000059093 700__ $$aKulmala, Soile 000059093 700__ $$aHaapasaari, Paivi 000059093 700__ $$aKuikka, Sakari 000059093 8564_ $$978a73721-6e4b-431f-b94b-208f628e1ead$$s237464$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/59093/files/Kulmala_%20Soile%201.pdf 000059093 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/59093 000059093 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:59093$$pGLOBAL_SET 000059093 912__ $$nSubmitted by Megan Watmuff (megan@aomevents.com) on 2010-03-10T02:26:24Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Kulmala, Soile 1.pdf: 237464 bytes, checksum: 525ac69dd91436271d99a332a6f1e41d (MD5) 000059093 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2010-03-10T02:26:25Z (GMT).
