Technical interactions/MetiersTechnical interactions/Metiers
• Define metiers using the Fishing Activity Database (FAD)
• Trips are allocated by gear, area (species)– By value – Method: multivariate statistics – Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering (HAC)
• Size distributions (size of vessels)
UK FleetsUK Fleets• 5 size categories
– <7, 7-10, 10-15, 15-24, >24m
• 6 main gear types– Towed gear
• Beam trawl • Trawl (otter and mid-water) • Dredge
– Pelagic– Static
• Pots, net-line
• Home ports– Southwest (Newlyn, Brixham and Plymouth)– Eastern (Poole, Hastings)– Other UK (mostly Scottish, some Welsh and other English)

Fleet economic info in the modelFleet economic info in the model
• Cost structures (2004)– Annual costs (£/vessel) – fuel costs (l/day, price),
other running costs (£/day)– Crew shares (%),
commissions (%)– Capital costs
• vessel for depreciation
• VCU/Quota values
• Cost information based on survey returns from SEAFISH survey, earlier survey work (updated) and additional financial information provided by fishers (following meetings)
• Cost information validated at meetings with fishers (Sept and October)
Other fleet informationOther fleet information• Days fished
– Inside and outside the area of the model
• External revenue– From activity outside the
area
– £/day – assumed constant
• Fishing powers– Varies by vessel size and
metier

PricesPrices
• Vary by age class– Price grades derived from Newlyn market prices
• length based classes
– Converted to age specific prices based on length/age relationship
• Can vary with level of landings– Advice from last meeting with industry reps (Feb
2006) suggested to keep prices constant
Incorporating foreign fleets into the Incorporating foreign fleets into the modelmodel
• Fishing mortality of all external fleets included in the total mortality estimate
• Total catch of “other” fleets estimated in similar fashion to UK vessels
• Catch allocated to France, Spain, Belgium and Ireland in fixed proportions– Proportions vary by species
Recreational fishingRecreational fishing
• Target species:– bass, cod, mackerel, plaice, pollack,whiting, other
• Number of targeted trips– Changes with stock size based on Nautilus
elasticity
• Catch per trip– Changes in proportion with stock size
Other componentsOther components
• Environmental impacts – Currently based on a damage index
• Varies by metier
– Damage is function of index and effort per metier
• Regional economic model– Input/output model
