The program builds on international networking of scientists to communicate and bring about change to how we exploit the oceans in order for our children and grandchildren [...] nereus http://feru.sites.olt.ubc.ca/2006/02/13/economics-of-fraser-river-sockeye-salmon-stocks/ http://feru.sites.olt.ubc.ca/2006/02/13/economics-of-fraser-river-sockeye-salmon-stocks/#comments Mon, 13 Feb 2006 16:37:23 +0000 nhotte http://feru.org/wordpress/?p=301 http://feru.sites.olt.ubc.ca/2006/02/13/economics-of-fraser-river-sockeye-salmon-stocks/feed/ 0 Major Research Questions: 1. How much better could the management of Fraser River sockeye have been, in terms of several different objectives, given what we now know about stock-recruitment dynamics? 2. Given uncertainty about the underlying biology of the system, what are the likely economic implications of different management approaches that might be implemented? http://feru.sites.olt.ubc.ca/2004/04/29/global-database-of-ex-vessel-fish-prices/ http://feru.sites.olt.ubc.ca/2004/04/29/global-database-of-ex-vessel-fish-prices/#comments Thu, 29 Apr 2004 19:00:01 +0000 nhotte http://feru.org/wordpress/?p=64 http://feru.sites.olt.ubc.ca/2004/04/29/global-database-of-ex-vessel-fish-prices/feed/ 0 Objective: To compile a database of fish prices for all species from around the world, starting in 1950.
