    • Hawaii Longline Fishery Trip Expenditure (2004 to present)

    Metadata Updated: March 16, 2024

    This is a time-series dataset of trip expenditure data for the Hawaii-based longline fleet for the period August 2004 to present. The data collection includes 10 variable cost items commonly associated with Hawaii longline trips (not including labor costs). These cost items are: unit price, quantity used, and total cost estimates of diesel fuel, engine oil, bait, ice, swordfish certificates (shallow-set only), and lightsticks (shallow-set only); and total cost estimates for gear, provisions, and communications. Additional information about the operator and crew are also included. These data are collected on a routine basis through a collaboration between the Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC) Economics Program and the Pacific Islands Regional Office (PIRO) Observer Program. The economic data collection program intends to collect data from all observed trips. Currently, observer coverage rates in Hawaii based pelagic longline vessels are 100% of shallow sets that target swordfish and 20% of deep sets that target tuna. Since the economic data collection project was implemented in August 2004, economic data have been collected for over 1,900 longline fishing trips. Minling Pan is the lead for this project.
