Abstract
This application envisages to operationalize the results of the previous research projects of the NWO PRIORITEIT programme 'Sustainable use and conservation of marine living resources'. To this end we will investigate both the results of the previous projects as well as the internationally available information. Our expertise is in the fields of marine ecology and international law; we expect to collaborate with another project on resource economics of marine exploitation. Based on these studies we will design new models for sustainable exploitation of marine living resources. Thses models will be discussed in national and international meetings with experts, including fishermen.
