• The bio-economic effects of artificial reefs: mixed evidence from Shandong, China 

      Sun, Peng; Liu, Xiaozi; Tang, Yangli; Cheng, Wenzhi; Sun, Runlong; Wang, Xinxin; Wan, Rong; Heino, Mikko Petteri (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-10)
      Artificial reefs are used to protect coastal habitats and rebuild fisheries. This engineering approach to fisheries management has gained popularity in many coastal areas, including China. In Shandong province alone, over ...
    • The Day-to-day Supply Responses of a Limited-entry Mixed Fishery 

      Liu, Xiaozi; Shaw, Daigee; Bjørndal, Trond; Heino, Mikko Petteri (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Small-scale fishers’ short-run supply decisions are understudied, often because of data limitations. We utilize a unique dataset of daily catches and prices from a mixed-species trawl fishery in Taiwan, characterized by ...
    • Evaluating effort regulation in mixed fisheries: a Monte Carlo approach 

      Liu, Xiaozi; Heino, Mikko Petteri (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      This paper evaluates whether effort regulation could achieve the goal of protecting low-abundance species in mixed fisheries. We construct a two-species bio-economic model and compare the stock abundance ratio in the end ...
    • Gaussian mixture models reveal highly diverse targeting tactics in a coastal fishing fleet 

      Liu, Xiaozi; Hansen, Cecilie; Nedreaas, Kjell Harald; Stockhausen, Hagen; Heino, Mikko Petteri (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Fishermen make repeated choices with respect to when, where, and how to catch their target species. While these targeting tactics—and the factors shaping them—are known to fishers and some experts, knowledge about them is ...
