Abstract
We now know that from a functional standpoint, jointly determined ecologica l-economic systems (ecosystems) cycle over time.

Consequently, the objective of this paper is to use renewal theory to examine two ways of analyzing the optimal management of cyclical ecosystems. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
