Marine Protected Areas and commercial fisheries: the existing fishery in potential protected areas, and a modelling study of the impact of protected areas on North Sea Plaice
Dit rapport presenteert resultaten van onderzoek, dat in 2005/2006 is uitgevoerd. In het kader van de Europese Vogel en Habitat Richtlijnen dienen lidstaten te beschermen gebieden op zee aan te wijzen, wat mogelijk zou leiden tot beperkingen van visserijactiviteiten in deze gebieden. De vraag was, welke invloed dit zou hebben op de vis en visserij. In dit onderzoek is enerzijds een statische beschrijving opgesteld van de visserijinspanning en de vangsten in de voorgestelde gebieden, en is anderzijds een eerste analyse (simulatie-model) opgezet van het lange-termijn effect op migrerende vis (schol). Dit onderzoek werd eind 2006 afgerond met een concept-rapport
Detection of optical water quality parameters for eutrophic waters by high resolution remote sensing
The break quantity rule in a 1-warehouse, N-retailers distribution system
In this paper the effect of the break quantity rule on the inventory costs in a 1-warehouse, N-retailers distribution system is analyzed. The break quantity rule is to deliver large orders from the warehouse, and small orders from the nearest retailer, where a so--called break quantity determines whether an order is small or large. Under the assumptions that the stock at the warehouse can only be used to satisfy large orders, and that demand during the leadtimes is normally distributed, an expression for the inventory costs is derived. The objective of this paper is to provide insight into the effect of the break quantity rule on the inventory holding costs, and therefore we present extensive computational results, showing that in many cases the rule leads to a significant cost reduction
Reef Rescue Marine Monitoring Program: Assessment of terrestrial run-off entering the Reef and inshore marine water quality monitoring using earth observation data. Final report for 2010/11 activities
This report delivers management relevant information of flood events and inshore water quality compliance based on tailored temporal and spatial analysis of remote sensing data, carried out by CSIRO as part of the Reef Rescue Marine Monitoring Program (MMP) from 2005 to 2010
On the newsboy model with a cutoff transaction size
In this paper we analyse the effect of satisfying in a different way customers with an order larger than a prespecified cutoff transaction size, in a simple newsboy setting. For compound Poisson demand with discrete order sizes, we show how to determine the expected costs and the optimal cutoff transaction size. Moreover, by approximating the distribution of the total demand during a period by the normal distribution one can determine an expression for the average cost function that depends on the cutoff transaction size only. A main advantage of this approximation is that the computational effort is much less. The quality of using the normal approximation is evaluated through a number of numerical experiments, which show that the approximative results are satisfactory
