Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of British Columbia
$200,000.00
Interdisciplinary Ocean and Fisheries Economics
FY 2020-21
Summary
Using an innovative and interdisciplinary approach, I study the economic causes and impacts of changes in coastal and marine ecosystems to support sustainable ocean management. Specifically for my Canada Research Chair research program, I will study the effects of climate change on the management of shared fish stocks; how ocean deoxygenation is likely to impact North Pacific ocean biodiversity and people dependent on it; the scope, magnitude and types of subsidies to the aquaculture sector, and how subsidies may affect the economic efficiency of the sector and the sustainability of global fisheries.
