Climate modelers have recognized the possibility of abrupt climate changes caused by a reorganization of the North Atlantic's current pattern (technically known as a thermohaline circulation collapse). This circulation system now warms north-western Europe and transports carbon dioxide to the...

Introduction -- A deep history of the Humboldt Current ecosystem -- The new industrial ecology of animal farming in the Atlantic and Pacific worlds, 1840-1930 -- Protein from the sea : the "nutrition problem" and the industrialization of fishing in Chile and Peru -- The golden anchoveta : the...

This paper examines the hedging properties of Atlantic salmon futures. Hedging is important since it allows for mitigation of the risk of adverse price changes in the spot market. We examine the hedging efficiency of three types of hedging strategies; unhedged, fully hedged and hedging using...

In this paper we apply the so-called partition function approach to study coalition formation in the North-east Atlantic mackerel fishery in the presence of externalities. Atlantic mackerel is mainly exploited by the European Union (EU), the United Kingdom (UK), Norway, the Faroe Islands and...

We present a continuous time series on first cabin passenger fares for ocean travel from New York to the British Isles covering nearly a century of time. We discuss the conceptual and empirical difficulties of constructing such a time series, and examine the reasons for differences between the...

Mackerel Fishery by statistical rectangles and by quarter for 2012. Catch (t). North East Atlantic -- The NMTT recommendation on allocation of fishing rights -- Mackerel landings in the North East Atlantic (combined Southern, Western, and North Sea spawning components). In tonne s by country...

The increase in liquefied natural gas trade has accelerated the integration of previously segmented markets in North America, Europe, and Asia. This paper provides evidence on the integration of the transatlantic natural gas market. We test the theoretical proposition that in integrating markets...

"This study brings to life the community of trans-Atlantic merchants who established strong economic, political, and cultural ties between the United States and the city-republic of Bremen, Germany in the nineteenth century. Lars Maischak shows that the success of Bremen's merchants in helping...

It is shown in the short comment that the sea levels are oscillating about a longer-term trend and that the sea level rise (SLR) computed with time windows of 20, 30 or 60 years also oscillates, with the amplitude of these latter oscillations reducing as the time window increases. The use of...

The purpose of this paper is to study the implications of introducing a stochastic stock in a multi-gear and age structured bio-economic model for the Northern Atlantic Bluefin tuna. In order to account for variations on the recruitment, uncertainty is introduced on a bilinear recruitment...

In most multi-species fisheries managed through output controls, total allowable catches (TACs) are set primarily on the basis of biological considerations, usually on a species by species basis. An implicit assumption of management is that fishers are able to adjust their product mix in line...

In this paper, a discrete time, multi-gear and age structured bio-economic model is developed for the Northern Atlantic Bluefin Tuna, which is a paradigmatic example of the difficulties faced in managing highly migratory fish stocks. The 1995 U.N. Fish Stocks Agreement provides guidance as to...
