Endogenous fishing mortalities: a state-space bioeconomic model

A generalized Nash equilibrium for a bioeconomic problem of fishing

With the overexploitation of many conventional fish stocks, and growing interest in harvesting new kinds of food from the sea, there is an increasing need for managers of fisheries to take account of interactions among species. In this work we define a bioeconomic equilibrium model for ’n’ fishermen who catch three species; these species compete with each other for space or food. The natural gr...

Bioeconomic consequences of fishing-induced evolution: a model predicts limited impact on net present value

Fishing reduces stock size and shifts demographics, and selective mortality may also lead to evolutionary changes. Previous studies suggest that traits may change evolutionarily because of fishing on decadal time scales. Here we examine the potential bioeconomic impacts of fishing-induced evolutionary change. We used a life-history model with stock dynamics based on evolving maturation age, whi...

What is an ‘ Endogenous State Space ’ ? ∗ Jacob

In the literature on choice under unforeseen contingencies, the decision maker behaves as if she aggregates possible instances of future rankings indexed by a set S. The set S is interpreted as a subjective state space even though subsequent rankings need not conform to any one of the aggregated utilities. This paper proposes a definition for a subjective state space under unforeseen contingenc...

A State-Space Striatal Model

Online State Space Model Parameter Estimation in Synchronous Machines

The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach based on the Least Squares Error method for estimating the unknown parameters of the nonlinear 3rd order synchronous generator model. The proposed method uses the mathematical relationships between the machine parameters and on-line input/output measurements to estimate the parameters of the nonlinear state space model. The field voltage is...
