  • Description:
    "This paper examines the effects of the combined closures of the Texas Territorial Sea and the FCZ off Texas on brown shrimp yields (in pounds). The Gulf-wide simulation model used in the evaluation of the FCZ-only closure has been reconstituted to project yields that would have been expected in 1981 and 1982 had both the Texas Territorial Sea and the FCZ been open. In addition, some more general yield per recruit results are presented. These general models allow an estimate of the maximum gain that could be attained via closure management techniques, and demonstrate the trade-offs between yields to inshore and offshore fisheries."--page 1, paragraph 1.
