OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Fishery Management through Agent-Based Models
Abstract
In this seminar I’d like to present our work on building a generic agent-based model for fisheries management. First I’d like to focus on why an agent-based approach is appropriate for the problem (feedbacks, heterogeneity, availability of micro-data, non-stationarity and bounded rationality) and how to go from a complicated simulation model to policy suggestions. Second I will present our work and results in applying the model to a data-rich scenario (the US West Coast Groundfish Fishery). Finally I’d like to draw out lessons from our work that can be used for other (non-fisheries) agent-based models and computer simulations more generally, particularly regarding parameter estimation and implementing bounded rationality
