• Description:
  Based on the 10MRSAM model, AFSC and AKRO economists conducted a project to develop a web-based software application that the analysts, without in-depth knowledge of regional economic models, can use to estimate the economic impacts of fishery management actions or environmental shocks. This project resulted in user-friendly software and a user manual. This report is intended for those analysts in ESSR, AKRO, and NPFMC who are not familiar with regional economic modeling but will use this software. This report (i) introduces the basics of the regional economic models that are often used for economic impact analyses for fisheries, and (ii) provides a description of the model used in the software, called the Adjusted Demand-driven Multi-regional Social Accounting Matrix (MRSAM) model.
