ABSTRACT Tradable quotas support efficiency and value creation in fisheries. Quota values can provide useful information in several aspects, as they are related to the resource rent and may figure in estimates of natural capital. Further, willingness to pay for quota can shed light on management tradeoffs. Quotas in the Norwegian groundfish fishery are,

Integrating Porpoise and Cod Management: A Comparison of Days-at-sea, ITQs, and Closures [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to determine if management measures based on effort reductions, in particular days-at-sea (DAS) controls, can approach a harbor porpoise individual transferable quotas (ITQ) program in terms of efficiency.
