Iverson K. and P. Malecha. 2000. "Characteristics of Vessels Participating in the Alaska Peninsula Salmon Purse Seine and Drift Gillnet Fisheries, 1978 to 1999." CFEC Rpt. 00-10N

Abstract:

This report was prepared for the Alaska Board of Fisheries at the request of the Department of Fish and Game. The report examines fishing vessels that participated in the Alaska Peninsula salmon purse seine and drift gillnet fisheries from 1978 to 1999. It provides time series data on vessel length, horsepower, hold capacity, and gross and net tonnages.

The analyses were performed on data gathered from the Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission's fish ticket and vessel license data bases.
