The Management Procedure of Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT) was developed since 2000 by the Commission for Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT) to conserve and ensure optimum utilization of the global SBT fishery through a transparent mechanismfor deciding the global total allowable catch (TAC). According to both the official report of CCSBT for the third Meeting of the Management Procedure Workshop in May 2004, the Age-Structured Population Operating Model (OM) was established by utilizing the harvest data from 1969 to 2000 and was used to simulate the future trajectory reference set of the biomass and total allowable catch (TAC) till 2032. Four candidate decision rules (DR) were selected to decide the appropriate TAC trajectory under various scenarios in order to achieve the recovery target of the biomass. Among the final four candidate decision rules, TAI 03, proposed by Sun (2004), is a CPUE-based DR with a negative built-in feedback component in terms of the theoretical economic consideration of the inverse relationship between price and demand. This study tries to apply the TAI 03 decision rule on the updated Reference Set which is updated by the scientific advisory panel with harvest data until 2003 in February 2005. This study specifies the TAI 04 decision rule to reduce the interannual variation of TAC and the TAI 05 to adapt to the short-term, intermediate, and long-termsituation in order to take into account both sustainability of resource management and industry operation. The simulation result of the TAI 05 decision rule was compared again with the other three candidate decision rules during the fourthmanagement procedure workshop in 2005. The simulation results show that the TAI 05 decision rulewould adjust TAC gradually for the industry to followand to reduce the uncertainty in revenue in the short-term and to reduce the risk of resource deterioration and to fulfill the requirement that both the recovery of the biomass and the optimum utilization of the global SBT fishery in order to avoid the economic deadweight loss in the long run. |
