A Mathematical Model For Optimal Exploitation Of Bio-geographically Interconnected Natural Resources

The exploitation of multi-species fisheries, such as fisheries which have biological interactions between species (population) or fisheries incorporating geographically interconnected species, is not well understood (Hilborn and Walters, 1992). Many scientists point out that appropriate policies for fisheries management are only possible if we have a comprehensive understanding of the underlying systems which are exploited (Yodzis, 1994; Botsford et al., 1997). They also argue that management practices could be improved if we include interactions between species in developing multi-species models (Hall, 1998).
