Advances in Fisheries Science

A true landmark publication, Advances in Fisheries Economics brings together many of the world’s leading fisheries economists to authoritatively cover the many issues facing the field of fisheries economics and management today. Compiled in honour of the work and achievements of Professor Gordon Munro of the University of British Columbia, Canada, this exceptional volume of research serves as both a valuable reference tool and fitting tribute to a man whose work has shaped the discipline. Divided into four sections, the text includes coverage of: • Property Rights and Fisheries Management • Capital Theory and Natural Resources • Game Theory and International Fisheries • Applied Fisheries Economics and Management The book is an important addition to the resources of all fisheries economists, managers, scientists and fish biologists. Libraries in universities and research establishments where these subjects are studied and taught should have copies on their shelves. About the Editors Dr. Trond Bj?rndal is Professor of Economics, Centre for Fisheries Economics, Institute for Research in Economics and Business Administration, Bergen, Norway and Director, CEMARE, University of Portsmouth, England. Dr. Daniel V. Gordon is Professor of Economics, University of Calgary, Canada and Distinguished Research Fellow, Centre for Fisheries Economics, Institute for Research in Economics and Business Administration, Bergen, Norway Dr. Ragnar Arnason is Professor of Economics and the Chairman of the Institute of Economic Studies, University of Iceland. Dr. U. Rashid Sumaila is Director of the Fisheries Economics Research Unit, Fisheries Centre, University of British Columbia.

Volume 6 in the well-establish series Advances in Electrochemical Science and Engineering covers – among others – such important topics as time dependent modulation techniques and computer modeling by continuum and non-continuum methods. As in all previous volumes, the editors have succeeded in selecting highly topical areas of electrochemical research and in presenting authors who are leaders in their fields. The result is a compelling set of reviews which serves equally well as an excellent and up-to-date source of information for experienced researchers active in the field as well as an introduction for newcomers. From reviews of previous volumes: 'This is an essential book for researchers in electrochemistry; it covers areas of both fundamental and practical importance, with reviews of high quality. The material is very well presented and the choice of topics reflects a balanced editorial policy that is welcomed.' The Analyst

This issue of the Ceramic Transactions compiles 41 papers covering a rich diversity of the sintering science and technology topics. These papers were presented at the International Conference on Sintering, November 16-20, 2008 in La Jolla, California. The Ceramic Transactions series contains a collection of papers dealing with issues in both traditional ceramics (i.e., glass, whitewares, refractories, and porcelain enamel) and advanced ceramics. Topics covered in the area of advanced ceramic include bioceramics, nanomaterials, composites, solid oxide fuel cells, mechanical properties and structural design, advanced ceramic coatings, ceramic armor, porous ceramics, and more.

This is the second volume of the new series which continues the highly successful 'Advances in Electrochemistry and Electrochemical Engineering'. The series covers advanced topics in the area of fundamental and applied electrochemistry and engineering. Authors are selected with great care and usually represent the best talent available world-wide. The positive response by scientists worldwide to the new series is reflected in the following excerpts from reviews of the first volume: 'The editors must be congratulated on the first volume of this reborn series, which will be read with pleasure and profit by many.' Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry 'This new book – and indeed the new series – can be recommended to all electrochemists in research and teaching as well as to all engineers and chemists in industry who are interested in recent developments in the field of electrochemistry.' Chemie – Ingenieur – Technik '… competently and clearly written.' Berichte der Bunsen-Gesellschaft fur Physikalische Chemie

Like its predecessors, volume three of this meanwhile well-established series covers selected topics from electrochemical science and its applications. The authors have been carefully selected among the leaders in the respective fields. Their authoritative and comprehensive contributions represent the latest state-of-the-art. Special attention is paid to recent developments, which are critically and thoroughly discussed. Each contribution of the present volume continues the high standards of this series. This new series has been warmly welcomed by scientists world-wide, which is reflected by the following review of the second volume: 'All the contributions in this volume are well up to the standard of this excellent series and will be of great value to electrochemists… The editors again deserve to be congratulated on this fine collection of reviews.' Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry and Interfacial Chemistry

This publication provides an excellent one-stop resource for understanding the most important current issues in the research and advances in sintering science and technology.
