M., Camanho, A. S., and Gaspar, M. B. 2013. The influence of catch quotas on the productivity of the Portuguese bivalve dredge fleet. \u2013 ICES Journal of Marine Science, 70: . Among the Portuguese artisanal fishing fleets, the bivalve dredge fleet is one of the most profitable. In the last decade, after the implementation of a quotas system, the management of this fishery has been largely focused on adjusting catch to the conservation status of the resources exploited. The present work aims to understand how changes in the amount of quota attributed to each vessel each year and shifts in the quota regime affected vessel productivity. Boostrapped Malmquist indices, complemented with an efficiency assessment using a directional distance function, were used to quantify productivity changes between 1999 and 2011 for the fleets operating in two areas along the Portuguese coast (northwest and southwest). The results showed that the implementation of a weekly quota, as opposed to a daily quota, led to a significant improvement in productivity. This was mainly due to the decrease in fishing days and fuel consumption. It is predicted that the implementation of weekly quotas in the south area would lead to an overall reduction of about 12% in fishing days and fuel consumption, even though the variation in fuel consumption may be affected by the status of the resources. The results achieved provide important insights for future management actions and showed the potential advantages of applying this type of management to other fisheries worldwide, mainly those using active gear.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/icesjms\/fst098","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,7]],"date-time":"2013-08-07T01:56:43Z","timestamp":1375840603000},"page":"1378-1388","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["The influence of catch quotas on the productivity of the Portuguese bivalve dredge fleet"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"M.
