Fuel price increase, subsidies, overcapacity, and resource sustainability (2008, background): “Subsidies are given directly to fishers in various forms, including grants, loans and loan guarantees, equity infusions, tax preferences or exemptions, and price or income support programmes (OECD, 1997, 2006; Milazzo, 1998; Schrank and Keithly, 1999; UNEP, 2004; Clark et al., 2005; Khan et al., 200”
Climate change impacts on the biophysics and economics of world fisheries (2011, background): “Based on experience from historical responses of countries to fisheries changes, possible adaptation strategies include vessel buyback”
A bottom-up re-estimation of global fisheries subsidies (2010, background): “These subsidies can reduce fishing pressure and foster resource management goals; however their effectiveness has been seriously questioned (Holland et al. 1999; Munro and Sumaila 2002; Clark et al. 2005).”
Incentive-based Approaches to Sustainable Fisheries (2006, background): “…problem; if they are successful in temporarily increasing the returns to harvesters who continue to fish, higher profits would encourage further investments and effort creep (Weninger and McConnell 2000) and, if anticipated by fishers, may even detract from conservation efforts (Clark et al. 2005).”
Trade-offs between conservation and socio-economic objectives in managing a tropical marine ecosystem (2008, background): “Thus part of the increased benefits gained by fishers who remain fishing may be used, through taxation for instance, to internalize the cost of vessel buy-back scheme (Pauly et al., 2002; Clark et al., 2005).”
