    • A deliberative approach to valuation and precautionary management of cold water corals in Norway 

      Falk-Andersson, Jannike; Foley, Naomi; Armstrong, Claire W.; van den Hove, Sybille; van Rensburg, Thomas; Tinch, Rob (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-06-17)
      This paper explores management challenges in relation to human impacts on cold water corals (CWC) in Norway. CWC are a slow growing organism about which there is uncertainty regarding distribution and values. We discuss area closures to protect this environmental public good against destructive fishing practices. Focus groups were combined with questionnaires to inform precautionary management ...

    • The ecological and economic value of cold-water coral ecosystems 

      Foley, Naomi; Armstrong, Claire W. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2010)
      Despite the growing scientific literature on cold-water corals (CWC) there appears to be no studies that address the economic values or economic management of the resource. This paper presents an overview of the goods and services of CWC and their associated biodiversity. Use and non-use values associated with CWC are presented, and the methods relevant for assessing their valuation are discussed. ...

    • Expert Assessment of Risks Posed by Climate Change and Anthropogenic Activities to Ecosystem Services in the Deep North Atlantic 

      Armstrong, Claire W.; Vondolia, Godwin Kofi; Foley, Naomi; Henry, Lea-Anne; Needham, Katherine; Ressurreição, Adriana (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-24)
      Sustainable development of the ocean is a central policy objective in Europe through the Blue Growth Strategy and globally through parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity. Achieving sustainable exploitation of deep sea resources is challenged due to the huge uncertainty around the many risks posed by human activities on these remote ecosystems and the goods and services they provide. We ...

    • A review of bioeconomic modelling of habitat-fisheries interactions. 

      Foley, Naomi; Armstrong, Claire W.; Kahui, Viktoria; Mikkelsen, Eirik Inge; Reithe, Siv (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      This paper reviews the bioeconomic literature on habitat-fisheries connections. Many such connections have been explored in the bioeconomic literature; however, missing from the literature is an analysis merging the potential influences of habitat on both fish stocks and fisheries into one general, overarching theoretical model. We attempt to clarify the nature of linkages between the function of ...

    • Valuing blue carbon changes in the Arctic ocean 

      Armstrong, Claire W.; Foley, Naomi; Slagstad, Dag; Chierici, Melissa; Ellingsen, Ingrid H.; Reigstad, Marit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-25)
      The ocean capacity to store carbon is crucial, and currently absorbs about 25% CO<sub>2</sub> supply to the atmosphere. The ability to store carbon has an economic value, but such estimates are not common for ocean environments, and not yet estimated for the Arctic Ocean. With the severe climatic changes in the Arctic Ocean, impacting sea ice and potentially the vertical carbon transport mechanisms, ...
