Impacts of quota trading on net revenues in the Northeast U.S. groundfish fishery

"This report describes the actual trades of quota, both between and within sectors, as reported by sectors in their year-end reports to NERO. Reporting inconsistencies between sectors make it difficult to describe trades at the individual vessel level, which is critical for understanding the full distribution of benefits from quota leasing. To accommodate for this, a simulation of quota trading was performed at the vessel level using catch and potential sector contribution (PSC) data. The simulated vessel level trade information is then used to adjust net revenue estimates"--Introduction. by Andrew Kitts and Chad Demarest. "June 2013."
