Resilience or vulnerability of gulf fisheries economies following Deepwater Horizon: An analysis of Gulf of Mexico fisheries data from 2000-2017

Fisheries data obtained from NOAA and various state agencies in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas were analyzed for the period 2000-2017 to retrospectively evaluate pre-spill economic trajectories, projected 2010-2017 economic trajectories using pre-spill patterns, and actual (observed) economic data during the 2010-2017 post-spill period in order to assess the economic impact of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on the Gulf of Mexico ecosystem. The dataset contains commercial, recreational, and mariculture landing data and actual and predicted values per fish harvested, as well as per capita values.本研究分析了2000-2017年间取自美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，NOAA）以及阿拉巴马州、佛罗里达州、路易斯安那州、密西西比州与德克萨斯州多家州级机构的渔业数据，以回溯评估溢油前的经济发展轨迹，基于溢油前的模式预测2010-2017年的经济走势，并对比2010-2017年溢油后的实际（观测）经济数据，从而评估深水地平线（Deepwater Horizon）原油泄漏事件对墨西哥湾生态系统的经济影响。该数据集包含商业捕捞、休闲垂钓捕捞及海水养殖的上岸量数据，单位捕捞渔获的实际与预测价值，以及人均经济价值指标。
