Description:Although there are many studies of economic impacts of Alaska fisheries conducted by the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) Economic and Social Sciences Research (ESSR) group, none of the models used for these studies have been utilized by the economists and social scientists in Alaska Regional Office (AKRO), North Pacific Fishery Management Council (NPFMC), and other agencies who are tasked with evaluating the economic impacts of proposed fishery management policies. There are several reasons for this. First, there is a gap between the fishery management policies. There are several reasons for this. First, there is a gap between the time when the analysts need the economic impact analysis for the policies at hand and the time when the model development is completed by ESSR and available for AKRO or Council analyses. Second, even when the models are available to the analysts, they may not be familiar with the structure of the models, and therefore, find it difficult to implement the models and interpret the results.
