Research interests
- Fishing fleet behavior
- Fisheries management evaluation
- Small scale fisheries performance
The core of my research interest is the interaction of humans in and with their natural environment. I have a special interest in the investigation of self- and co-management regimes in small scale fisheries. My current work focuses on the self-management of the North Sea Brown Shrimp fishery, one of the rare examples of self-management implemented by a highly developed industrial fishery.
