Zusammenfassung

The main objective of this paper is to identify the taxonomy of Basque local fishing communities (FC) using a set of either, hierarchical (i.e. Ward, average and complete linkage), non-hierarchical (i.e. k-means and k-medoids) and mixed hierarchical-kmeans clustering algorithms; and two alternative fishing related variates at fishing community level, {�} and {�}. The former {�} includes a set of input, output and fleets’ structure variables (i.e. the value of landings (PQ), the number of vessels (NB), the estimated capital value (K), the number of fishermen (L), the local level percentage of the small scale artisanal vessels (NBA); while the latter, {�}, exclusively incorporates economic performance productivity ratios (i.e. PQ/NB, PQ/K, PQ/L). Since the variables in both the variates are highly correlated, we are applying a two-step principal component clustering approach in order to find potential groups of homogeneous FC described on a multivariate profile. Our results support 4 FC typologies. The classification is robust to alternative methods and algorithms.
