Description
Summary:"This document gives an overview of the latest eight years of trip cost data, from 2005-2012. It explains the data collection process, types of data collected, and data coverage and quality. Several summary statistics of the data by selected vessel and trip characteristics are also presented. A modeling framework for estimation and prediction of costs is also given. This process will allow estimation of vessel level aggregate trip cost, which in combination with a vessel's annual cost can give an overall fisheries cost assessment. This analysis is expected to improve the capacity of the SSB in conducting more comprehensive research and analysis"--Executive summary.
