Abstract The destructive impacts of fishing on marine habitats may be mitigated through the allocation catch shares between different user groups. We assess optimal harvest across multiple groups and how fishery outcomes are affected when allocated suboptimally. incorporate process into a bioeconomic model in which fishing‐induced habitat damage occurs single fish stock is targeted by two characterized technologies differing environmental impact. Results show that maximizing overall profit...
The world's oceans are vital for planetary health as well food and energy security. Recently though, they have been increasingly considered a solution to stagnating economic growth, with ocean resources spaces being used both public private benefit. This puts pressure on the sustainability of ecosystems. These complex challenges meant need an integrated understanding more holistic approach accounting governance.

Fishery managers face an ongoing challenge in managing commercial fisheries a way which enables the short-term delivery of economic benefits to fishers while also ensuring those do not compromise ability fish stocks deliver into future. This is complicated by fishing effort negatively impacting habitats support and so undermining sustainability resource. Depletion subsequent rebuilding efforts have necessitated development harvest policies dictate harvesting rules control mechanisms. In this...
