Anna Birkenbach is evaluating the link between catch share management and ex vessel prices. Graphic by Anna Birkenbach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Anna Birkenbach is a 2016 recipient of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u2019s National Sea Grant Office and NOAA Fisheries joint fellowship. She is a doctoral student in environmental policy at Duke University\u2019s Nicholas School of the Environment.<\/p>\n

Birkenbach evaluates how management of catch shares, or quotas, affects fishing season lengths and ex-vessel prices in U.S. fisheries. Her advisor is Martin Smith, an environmental economist at Duke.<\/p>\n

This two-year fellowship in marine resource economics will enable her to answer a new set of questions arising from her initial research, issues that require a more sophisticated approach and finer-scale data on fishing activity.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a NMFS fellow, I will explore how catch shares influence microlevel decision making on the water \u2014 including decisions on targeting, timing and interspecies substitutions \u2014 using the Northeast Multispecies Sector Program<\/a>,\u201d Birkenbach says, referring to a management area that includes New England and the Mid-Atlantic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis research aims to inform ongoing discussions about the role of catch shares in fisheries management, as well as possible means of fine-tuning these policies to maximize the value generated from the resources and balance the goals of ecological and economic sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n

Birkenbach holds a master\u2019s degree in applied economics, and master\u2019s and bachelor\u2019s degrees in public policy, all from Duke.<\/p>\n
