Fishing on the high seas is a bit of a mystery, economically speaking. These areas of open ocean beyond the territorial jurisdiction of any nation are generally considered high-effort, low-payoff fishing grounds, yet fishers continue to work in them anyway.

AI finds thousands of fishing boats likely using forced labor — Quartz

December 21, 2020 Fishing on the high seas is a bit of a mystery, economically speaking. These areas of open ocean beyond the territorial jurisdiction of any nation are generally considered high-effort, low-payoff fishing grounds, yet fishers continue to work in them anyway. I am an environmental data scientist who leverages data and analytical techniques to answer critical questions about natural resource management. Back in 2018, my colleagues at the Environmental Market Solutions Lab found that high-seas fishing often appears to be an almost entirely unprofitable endeavor. This is true even when taking government subsidies into consideration. Forced labor is a known problem in open ocean fishing, but the scale has been very hard to track historically. This mystery why so many vessels are fishing the high seas if it isn’t profitable got our team thinking that maybe many of these vessels are, in a sense, being subsidized through low labor costs. These costs could even be zero i

Gavin is a Senior Project Researcher at the Environmental Market Solutions Lab (emLab) at University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). He grew up just outside of Boston, spending his summers at beaches throughout New England. With a strong interest in science and math, Gavin began his career as a mechanical engineer. He holds both a Bachelor s and Master s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Georgia Tech, along with a Master Professionnel in Integrated Manufacturing from École Nationale Supérieure d Arts et Métiers (ENSAM) in Metz, France. After three years working as a Research Engineer at the aerospace research and development company Busek, he decided to go back to school to follow his lifelong passion for coastal marine conservation. Gavin received a Master s degree from the Bren School of Environmental Science & Management at UCSB. His interests lie in using science to improve fisheries management for the benefit of both conservation and the livelihoods of fishers. His w
