Abstract :

The aim of this paper is to study the dynamics of fishery resource system in an aquatic region consisting of two zones. One zone is free for fishing and other is restricted for any kind of fishing. In the proposed harvesting model, a modified effort function E is considered, which depends on the density effect of fish population. The criteria for local stability, global stability and instability are established for the proposed system. The theoretical results obtained are illustrated with numerical simulations in the last section.
