Does the choice of effort measure matter? Samfunns- og næringslivsforskning AS, Norway Fishing effort is key to assessing performance and sustainability in fisheries, yet its definition varies. Using landing data, vessel monitoring, and satellite observations, we compare fishing effort measures at the trip level. A two-stage estimation of a generalized fishery model is applied to the Northeast Atlantic cod fishery (multi-gear) and the purse seine fleet (pelagic species). Correlation among effort measures is much higher for cod, but maximum sustainable yield estimates are more consistent for purse seine fishery. Despite accounting for gear-, area-, and season-effects, cod fishery parameters remain sensitive to effort definitions, highlighting the need for caution in multi-gear fisheries. | |
