System Zoo Z409 Fishery dynamics from Hartmut Bossel (2007) System Zoo 2 Simulation Models. Climate, Ecosystems, Resources

Fisheries represent an interaction between ecological and economic systems. All else being equal, fish populations can sustain fishing indefinitely if extraction rates are below renewal rates, but above this, catch starts to fall with increasing fishing effort. Economic pressure makes it difficult to stay below those limits. 

It is necessary for fishers to meet their costs to keep fishing over time, so a minimum profit must be met; as more people join the fishery, there is less available for each person fishing. Unmanaged fisheries are often over-exploited so that catch is much lower than it could be. Proper management often means putting limits on people - limiting the number of boats or number of fish that can be caught.

System Zoo Z409 Fishery dynamics from Hartmut Bossel (2007) System Zoo 2 Simulation Models. Climate, Ecosystems, Resources

Fishing is a classic example for use of a renewable resource. Unless overfished, fish populations If is hardly by fishing, then the fish population will persist at a constant size corresponding to its specific ecological envi­ ronment If the stock is overfished, the juvenile generation becomes too small to fully replace the adult generation. If overfishing continues. the population cannot recover and will collapse in short time. Even if fish catch stops now/, it could take decades until the fish population recovers to its original size if it hasn't become extinct meanwhile. In many of the world overtlshing has led, and still leads, to the complete collapse of formerly huge tlsh populations: herring in the North Sea, codtlsh in the Northern Atlantic. tuna, whales to name only a few. With the collapse of fish stocks came the collapse of the t1shing industry in many regions. Employment and
incomes disappeared: whole regions (like Newfoundland) lost their economic base.​

System Zoo Z302 - Global carbon circulation from Hartmut Bossel (2007) System Zoo 2 Simulation Models. Climate, Ecosystems, Resources

By photosynthesis and decomposition of organic matter (stand litter and humus) and by respiration of plants and animals large amounts of carbon dioxide are constantly being removed from and returned to the atmosphere. These gigantic C02 flowswere in equilibrium over millions of years. Annual C02 gains and losses of the atmosphere balanced rather exactly, so that the atmospheric C02 level hardly changed. Since the beginning of industrialization this dynamic equilibrium between the reservoirs of atmosphere and (living and dead) biomass has been disturbed by the burningof fossil fuels and the deforestation of large areas. Every year more C02 now reaches the atmosphere than is taken out by photosynthesis. This leads to an increasing fraction of the greenhouse gas C02 in the atmosphere a major cause of gradual temperature increase and of climate change.

Calculation of static and dynamic life time can at best serve to determine the bounds of actual life time of a resource. As a resource becomes scarce, its consump- tion must approach zero thus lengthening the calculated life time. The relative amount of remaining resources, i.e. scarcity, will therefore determine the development of the consumption rate. If material is recycled, it is important to know how quickly a product is scrapped and material is returned to the production process. A model de-scribing the dynamics of nonrenewable resource use must account for these processes.
