Asymptotically periodic solution and optimal harvesting policy for Gompertz system

In this paper, the single species modelled by (asymptotically) periodic Gompertz equation is investigated. It is shown that the (asymptotically) periodic system has a unique (asymptotically) periodic solution which is globally asymptotically stable for the positive solution. When the nonautonomous Gompertz equation is subject to harvesting, we study the optimal harvesting policy for the periodic system and obtain the corresponding optimal population level and the maximum sustainable yield. Further, when the functions in the exploited Gompertz system are stably bounded functions, we study the ultimately optimal harvesting policy. By choosing the average limiting maximum sustainable yield as management objective, the corresponding optimal population level is determined.     

Optimal impulsive harvesting policy for single population

In this paper, we established the exploitation of impulsive harvesting single autonomous population model by Logistic equation. By some special methods, we analysis the impulsive harvesting population equation and obtain existence, the explicit expression and global attractiveness of impulsive periodic solutions for constant yield harvest and proportional harvest. Then, we choose the maximum sustainable yield as management objective, and investigate the optimal impulsive harvesting policies respectively. The optimal harvest effort that maximizes the sustainable yield per unit time, the corresponding optimal population levels are determined. At last, we point out that the continuous harvesting policy is superior to the impulsive harvesting policy, however, the latter is more beneficial in realistic operation.     

Optimal harvesting policies for periodic Gompertz systems

In this paper, we study the periodic Gompertz system with harvesting. First, we analyze the system with continuous harvesting and obtain the maximum annual-sustainable yield, the optimal harvesting effort and the optimal population level for such a system. Then, the harvesting is assumed to occur at fixed moments every year, and we establish the Gompertz system with impulsive perturbation. And we investigate the impulsive harvesting policy to maximize the annual yield and to keep the population sustainable development. At last, the optimal results of the impulsive harvesting system are compared with those of the continuous harvesting system.

Optimal and feedback strategies for managing multicohort populations

A Beverton and Holt type linear cohort dynamics model is integrated and combined with a nonlinear stock-recruitment relationship to obtain a discrete-time multicohort harvesting model. Assuming that each age class is individually controllable, it is shown, subject to certain assumptions, that the optimal harvesting strategy is to drive the population to the maximum sustainable yield solution in one time step. In most fisheries, this controllability assumption is not met and harvesting is agewise nonselective. In this case, it may be preferable to implement a harvesting policy based on suboptimal constant effort or stock level feedback strategies, rather than implement a more complicated optimal policy. This question is addressed through numerical studies on the management of an anchovy fishery.Dedicated to G. LeitmannThe author would like to thank M. Mangel, W. Reed, P. Sullivan, and G.

The optimal harvesting problem under price uncertainty

In this paper we study the exploitation of a one species forest plantation when timber price is governed by a stochastic process. The work focuses on providing closed expressions for the optimal harvesting policy in terms of the parameters of the price process and the discount factor, with finite and infinite time horizon. We assume that harvest is restricted to mature trees older than a certain age and that growth and natural mortality after maturity are neglected. We use stochastic dynamic programming techniques to characterize the optimal policy and we model price using a geometric Brownian motion and an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process. In the first case we completely characterize the optimal policy for all possible choices of the parameters. In the second case we provide sufficient conditions, based on explicit expressions for reservation prices, assuring that harvesting everything available is optimal. In addition, for the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck case we propose a policy based on a reservation price that performs well in numerical simulations. In both cases we solve the problem for every initial condition and the best policy is obtained endogenously, that is, without imposing any ad hoc restrictions such as maximum sustained yield or convergence to a predefined final state.     

Harvesting of a phytoplankton–zooplankton model

Considering that some phytoplankton and zooplankton are harvested for food, a phytoplankton–zooplankton model with harvesting is proposed and investigated. First, stability conditions of equilibria and existence conditions of a Hopf-bifurcation are established. Our results indicate that over exploitation would result in the extinction of the population and an appropriate harvesting strategy should ensure the sustainability of the population which is in line with reality. Furthermore, the existence of bionomic equilibria and the optimal harvesting policy are discussed. The present value of revenues is maximized by using Pontryagin’s maximum principle subject to the state equations and the control constraints. We discussed the case of optimal equilibrium solution. It is found that the shadow prices remain constant over time in optimal equilibrium when they satisfy the transversality condition. It is established that the zero discounting leads to the maximization of economic revenue and that an infinite discount rate leads to complete dissipation of economic rent. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to illustrate our results.     

Optimal harvesting policy for general stochastic Logistic population model

We consider some optimal harvesting policies for a general stochastic Logistic population model. For two management objectives, that are maximum sustainable yield and the maximum retained profits, the optimal harvesting policies are obtained. Meanwhile, the optimal harvest effort, the maximum of expectation of sustainable yield (or retained profits) and the corresponding variance are given.     

An optimal policy for a fish harvest

A dynamical model for harvesting a fish population system is proposed by introducing control into the known Verhulst-Pearl model. An optimal control problem including some parameters is stated, and the usual necessary conditions are applied. For specific parameter values, the candidate control policy is deduced, and optimality is verified by applying a sufficiency theorem. The optimal trajectories may contain maximum and minimum control arcs as well as a singular subarc. The significance of the singular arc is interpreted in terms of the system dynamics.     

Impulsive harvesting and by-catch mortality for the theta logistic model

In this paper, we investigate the population dynamics described by the theta logistic model with periodic impulsive harvesting and by-catch mortality. We examine the existence and stability of two positive periodic solutions by using qualitative methods and cobwebs. Then the sufficient conditions under which the unique positive periodic solution exists and is semi-stable are established, and qualifications for the solutions approach zero are also obtained. Further, choosing the maximum sustainable yield as the management objective, we investigate the optimal harvesting policy for the theta logistic model with periodic impulsive harvesting. Moreover the corresponding theta logistic difference equation is considered subject to the impulsive perturbation, and the dynamics which is parallel to that for the differential equation is examined. The main results extend and generalize the classical results for populations described by the autonomous logistic equation in renewable resources management.     

Optimal harvesting of a Gompertz population model with a marine protected area and interval‐value biological parameters

To protect fishery populations on the verge of extinction and sustain the biodiversity of the marine ecosystem, marine protected areas (MPA) are established to provide a refuge for fishery resource. However, the influence of current harvesting policies on the MPA is still unclear, and precise information of the biological parameters has yet to be conducted. In this paper, we consider a bioeconomic Gompertz population model with interval‐value biological parameters in a 2‐patch environment: a free fishing zone (open‐access) and a protected zone (MPA) where fishing is strictly prohibited. First, the existence of the equilibrium is proved, and by virtue of Bendixson‐dulac Theorem, the global stability of the nontrivial steady state is obtained. Then, the optimal harvesting policy is established by using Pontryagin's maximum principle. Finally, the results are illustrated with the help of some numerical examples. Our results show that the current harvesting policy is advantageous to the protection efficiency of an MPA on local fish populations.

Optimal harvesting policy for stochastic Logistic population model

In this paper, we consider some optimal harvesting policies for single population models, in which the harvest effort and the intrinsic growth rate are disturbed by environment noises. We choose the maximum sustainable yield and the maximum retained profits as two management objectives, and obtain the optimal harvesting policies, respectively. For the two objectives, we give the optimal harvest effort that maximizes the sustainable yield (or retained profits), the maximum of expectation of sustainable yield (or retained profits) and the corresponding variance. Their explicit expressions are determined by the coefficients of equation and the disturbance intensity.
