| Abstract | Integrating governance mechanisms into bio-economic modeling tools is a key challenge for the assessment of fisheries management plans. Impact assessments are carried out without considering real management options and institutional context. Only fishing mortality changes and their impact on fish stocks are considered. The Bay of Biscay sole fishery offers a good example to integrate current governance mechanisms for quota management - mainly relying on “fishery cooperatives” - and consequences of possible alternatives - market or centralized based approaches - especially in the context of the Common fisheries Policy reform. Based on a simulation bio-economic tools developed in cooperation with Bay of Biscay fisheries stakeholders, we explore the consequences of modeling different governance mechanisms options for quotas. The results are analyzed according to a set of multi-criteria indicators with the perspective of improving cost-effectiveness analysis in fisheries impact assessment. |
