Abstract
The study of management of renewable resources has a long-standing tradition. Fisheries for example have been studied extensively since the 1950s. Most of the early studies focus on single-species and single-user systems with just one management goal, usually profit maximization. For these types of systems, analytical solutions can sometimes be found (Clark, 1976). Obviously, the importance of species interactions such as predator–prey relations or competition (see e.g. May et al., 1979) are important for the dynamic behavior of the system and make it difficult to find the optimal control. Therefore, numerical modeling and simulation have become necessary to study management strategies in complex ecosystems.
