Such controlled rearing of seafood can, in principle, shift the pressure off wild stocks and aquatic ecosystems by reducing fishing activities, which may advance marine conservation goals. We examined resource displacement-the reduced consumption of a resource due to its replacement with a more environmentally benign substitute-in fisheries. We employed panel regression techniques in an analysis of time-series data from 1970 through 2014 to assess the extent to which aquaculture production displaced fisheries captures for all nations for which data were available. We estimated 9 models to assess whether aquaculture production suppresses captures once other factors related to demand have been controlled for. Only 1 model predicted significant suppression of fisheries captures associated with aquaculture systems within nations over time. These results suggest that global aquaculture production does not substantially displace fisheries capture; instead, aquaculture production largely supplements fisheries capture.La Acuacultura y el Desplazamiento de Capturas de las Pesquerías Resumen En la acuacultura moderna, la tecnología de producción animal se usa para incrementar las fuentes acuáticas de alimento. Tal crianza controlada de peces puede, en principio, modificar la presión que afecta los stocks silvestres y los ecosistemas acuáticos al reducir las actividades de pesca, lo que podría acercarnos a la obtención de las metas de conservación. Examinamos el desplazamiento de recursos - el consumo reducido de un recurso debido a su reemplazo con un sustituto más benigno con el ambiente - en las pesquerías. Empleamos técnicas de regresión de paneles en un análisis de datos de series de tiempo de 1970 a 2014 para evaluar hasta dónde ha llegado el desplazamiento de las capturas de las pesquerías en todos los países que tenían datos disponibles. Estimamos nueve modelos para evaluar si la producción de la acuacultura suprime las capturas una vez que otros factores relacionados con la demanda han sido controlados. Solamente un modelo pronosticó la supresión de las capturas de las pesquerías asociadas con los sistemas de acuacultura en los países a lo largo del tiempo. Estos resultados sugieren que la producción acuícola no desplaza sustancialmente la captura de las pesquerías; en su lugar, la producción acuícola complementa en gran parte a estas capturas.现代水产养殖中会采用动物生产技术来增加水产品的来源。原则上, 这种人为控制的海产品养殖可以通过减少渔业捕捞活动来减轻对野生鱼类和水生生态系统的压力, 从而可能有助于实现海洋保护目标。我们分析了渔业中的资源替代, 即一种资源因存在更环保的良性替代品而减少对其消耗的情况。利用 1970-2014 年的时间序列数据, 我们用面板回归方法评估了所有有数据的国家中水产养殖生产对渔业捕捞的替代程度。我们检验了九个模型, 以评估在控制其它与需求相关的因素的情况下, 水产养殖是否能抑制渔业捕捞。结果显示, 只有一个模型预测, 随着时间推移, 各国与水产养殖系统有关的渔业捕捞将受到显著抑制。这些结果表明, 全球的水产养殖并不能在实质上替代渔业捕捞, 而是在很大程度上作为渔业捕捞的补充。【翻译: 胡怡思; 审校: 聂永刚】.}, number={4}, journal={CONSERVATION BIOLOGY}, author={Longo, Stefano B. and Clark, Brett and York, Richard and Jorgenson, Andrew K.}, year={2019}, month={Aug}, pages={832–841} } @article{jorgenson_dick_austin_2010, title={The vertical flow of primary sector exports and deforestation in less-developed countries: A test of ecologically unequal exchange theory}, volume={23}, number={9}, journal={Society & Natural Resources}, author={Jorgenson, A.

Tied to their unsustainable consumption levels, this misappropriation by higher‐income countries leads to the suppression of resource consumption in lower‐income countries, well below globally sustainable thresholds, which negatively impacts the well‐being of domestic populations. To evaluate key aspects of the theory, I test the hypothesis that lower‐income countries with elevated levels of exports sent to higher‐income countries exhibit lower consumption‐based environmental demand, measured as per‐capita ecological footprints. Findings for generalized least squares panel regression analyses of 66 lower‐income countries from 1975 to 2000 confirm the hypothesis, providing support for the theory. Additional results indicate that the strength of the hypothesized relationship increased in magnitude during the 25‐year period. These findings hold, net of the effects of economic development, ecological conditions, and other structural factors.}, number={1}, journal={SOCIOLOGICAL FORUM}, author={Jorgenson, Andrew K.}, year={2009}, month={Mar}, pages={22–46} } @article{jorgenson_2009, title={The transnational organization of production, the scale of degradation, and ecoefficiency: A study of carbon dioxide emissions in less-developed countries}, volume={16}, number={1}, journal={Human Ecology Review}, author={Jorgenson, A.

Considering all less‐developed countries for which data are available, using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression we generate quantitative, cross‐national models for rates of deforestation in the last decade of the twentieth century. The opposite effects of rural and urban population dynamics are of particular concern. While both influence deforestation rates, the effects of rural population change tend to be more profound and more robust. We discuss these findings in light of theoretical work about circular migration and rural encroachment. In addition, we examine the impact of economic development on deforestation while controlling for political and social welfare variables. Findings suggest a trend toward rapidly increasing rates of deforestation in the least‐developed countries. We conclude with a discussion of how rural–urban population dynamics, in combination with other aspects of national development, affect the natural environment, particularly in light of an increasingly interconnected world economy.}, number={3}, journal={SOCIOLOGICAL INQUIRY}, author={Jorgenson, Andrew K. and Burns, Thomas J.}, year={2007}, month={Aug}, pages={460–482} } @article{jorgenson_dick_mahutga_2007, title={Foreign investment dependence and the environment: An ecostructural approach}, volume={54}, number={3}, journal={Social Problems (Society for the Study of Social Problems)}, author={Jorgenson, A.
