Book Description
The development and eastward expansion of the Japanese High Seas Mothership Salmon fishery in the North Pacific and Bering Sea was responsible for the establishment of the International Convention of the High Seas Fisheries of the North Pacific Ocean. The Convention was, as it remains to date, a tri-national agreement between the United States, Canada, and Japan intended to guarantee the interests of each nation in the fisheries of the North Pacific. The Japanese have had a long history of fishing activities in the region. However, with the advent of the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act, the Marine Mammal Protection Act, and a 1980 fishery in which Japan acknowledged an exceptionally high interception of North American Chinook salmon, questions have arisen as to the desirability of continued U.S. participation in the Convention. This report attempts to answer this question by examining the potential economic impacts which might be incurred by North American salmon fishermen should the Convention be revoked by the U.S. Utilizing recent historical Japanese catch rates, stock composition and age data, and three possible operational scenarios which Japan might reasonably be expected to undertake absent the Convention's constraints, it appears that, in the worst case, Japanese interceptions of North American salmon could increase to as many as 26.8 million fish annually with a discounted value to the the U.S. fishery of $128.2 million per year.

The Circumpolar North
Author: Terence Armstrong
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000867021
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
First Published in 1978, The Circumpolar North is designed for anyone with a more than superficial interest in the northern regions of our planet, geographical, economic, social, or political. The primary importance of North today is as a source of raw materials, as a world crossroads, and as a touchstone of the way nations behave towards their minority groups. Strategic considerations have led to the expenditure of vast sums of money; but world population expansion has not yet affected the northlands and their preservation in a natural state is still a feasible objective. The authors are experts in their own areas and have provided regional chapters on each of the land and ocean areas. The book compares the different approaches of the countries involved and deals also, in the context of the northern seas, with another political dimension – the relations between nations and their success in achieving international management of resources. This is an interesting read for scholars of geography, international relations and international economics.
