The multispecies fisheries management looks at a bigger picture in addressing the long-term consequences of present decisions. This implies an ecosystem management that includes a number of species and their physical, ...

A variant of the classical harvesting game, where a number of competing agents simultaneously harvest a common-pool natural resource, is analysed. The harvesting at each time is a Cournot competition. The critical assumption ...

Microalgae receive rising attention because of their capacity to generate biofuels. Cultured either in ponds or photobioreactors, they have a high growth rate, occupy smaller cultivation land area than other biofuel-generating ...

Formålet med denne rapporten er å gi en mest mulig fullstendig oversikt over skatte- og avgiftstrykket i den norske fiskeflåten med hovedvekt på gebyrer og særavgifter. Utredningen tar for seg fem aspekter: 1. Definisjon ...

A new approach of model parameter estimation is used with simulated measurements to recover both biological and economic input parameters of a natural resource model. The procedure efficiently combines time series of ...

This study explores the impact of input factor variability and the scope of analysis on profitability calculations for nuclear and offshore wind power in the Norwegian power market. The research employs several data ...

The post World War II era saw the development of powerful self-contained fishing fleets, so-called distant-water fleets (DWFs), which roamed the world’s oceans, seeking out rich harvesting targets wherever they might be ...

We present a continuous, nonlinear, stochastic and dynamic model for capital investment in the exploitation of a renewable resource. Both the resource stock and capital stock are treated as state variables. The resource ...

Industrial salmon farming is becoming an increasingly important industry, both globally and in Norway. One of the main risk factors in salmon production is the highly volatile spot price, so access to high-quality price ...
