ECONOMIC RECOVERY
Economic Recovery of Mississippi Commercial and Recreational Fishing
An economic recovery model was developed using the survey data after Hurricane Katrina and databases on licenses issued by the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources. From these databases, the decision to remain or leave the industry made by the participating boats and vessels was determined.
Community Economic Recovery in the Northern Gulf of Mexico Region
This project presents a suggested approach in measuring community economic recovery following natural disasters. The economic variables to be used in measuring the economic recovery of counties and parishes will include variables describing the community human capital, economic output and tax revenues, business sector, and private construction.
