During a series of 3 workshops, participants discussed challenges and opportunities for modeling the economics of the Gulf of Maine American lobster (Homerus americanus) fishery. The overall goal of the workshops was to inform participants about prior efforts to model the lobster fishery’s economic dynamics and identify elements and processes to consider for future modeling efforts. Attendees included staff from the Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC), Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO), the University of Maine, Sea Grant, the Maine Lobster Dealers Association, the Maine Center for Coastal Studies, the Maine Department of Marine Resources, the Gulf of Maine Resource Institute, the Maine Lobstermen’s Association, the Island Institute, and the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC).
