    Chapter 11: The Inland Waters River Fishery Information System CHAPTER 11: INLAND WATERS RIVER FISHERY INFORMATION SYSTEM 11.1 Background The Inland Waters River fishery is a multi-species, multi-gear fishery encompassing the South Australian sector of the River Murray and its backwaters (Map 11.1). Historically, the fishery was based on harvesting Murray cod (Maccullochella peelii peelii), golden perch (Macquaria ambigua), and bony bream (Nematalosa erebi). The fishery was restructured in July 2003 to a non-native dominate fishery and the commercial fishing for significant native species is now prohibited. The fishery is now based predominantly on the taking European carp (Cyprinus carpio) and redfin perch (Perca fluviatilis). There are a total of 6 licence holders who operate within the fishery. Prior to the restructure 30 license holders fished the river, each with a designated reach. Up to December 2007 SARDI production tables hold in excess of 270,000 daily records. Data is held from 1984/85 to current and is continually being updated. Refer to Figure 11.3 for an entity relationship diagram of the inland waters system that encompasses the River Fishery.

  • A Sampling Programme to Construct and Quantify Fish Food-Webs on the Chatham Rise
    A sampling programme to construct and quantify fish food-webs on the Chatham Rise Mary Livingston Matt Pinkerton Final Research Report for Ministry of Fisheries Research Project ENV2002-07 Objective 1 National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research September 2004 Final Research Report Report Title: A sampling programme to construct and quantify food-webs on the Chatham Rise Authors: Mary Livingston, Matt Pinkerton 1. Date: 23 September 2004 2. Contractor: NIWA 3. Project Title: Energetics and trophic relationships of fish and invertebrate species. 4. Project Code: ENV2002-07 5. Project Leader: Dr Mary Livingston 6. Duration of Project: Start date: March 2003 Completion date: September 2004 7. Executive Summary The energetics and trophic interactions of fish and invertebrates are not well studied in New Zealand, particularly in offshore fish communities. This report presents the rationale for determining the diet of hoki and other species that form 95% of the middle depth fish biomass on the Chatham Rise, an area of relatively high commercial fishing activity, rich biodiversity and high productivity. The ontogenetic, seasonal, annual, and spatial variation in predator-prey relationships will be investigated through the reconstruction of fish diet compositions and daily consumption for major predators, based primarily on stomach contents of fish on the Chatham Rise. The resulting information will provide baseline biological information on the feeding habits and annual consumption rates of the more abundant fish species found in middle depths (200-800 m) on the Chatham Rise. This diet composition and consumption information will be used to estimate dietary overlap and potential competition between predators. It will also be used as input to ecosystem models that describe temporal and spatial variation in energy fluxes on the Chatham Rise.

October 2015 CONTENTS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 3 INTRODUCTION 4 METHODOLOGY 5 OVERALL FINDINGS 9 NOTES ON ESTIMATES OF IUU FISHING 13 Tunas 13 Sharks 14 The Mediterranean 14 US Imports 15 CONCLUSION 16 CITATIONS 17 OCEAN BASIN PROFILES APPENDIX 1: IUU Estimates for Species Groups and Ocean Regions APPENDIX 2: Estimates of IUU Risk for FAO Assessed Stocks APPENDIX 3: FAO Ocean Area Boundary Descriptions APPENDIX 4: 2014 U.S. Edible Imports of Wild-Caught Products APPENDIX 5: Overexploited Stocks Categorized as High Risk – U.S. Imported Products Possibly Derived from Stocks EXECUTIVE SUMMARY New analysis by World Wildlife Fund (WWF) finds that over 85 percent of global fish stocks can be considered at significant risk of Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) fishing. This evaluation is based on the most recent comprehensive estimates of IUU fishing and includes the worlds’ major commercial stocks or species groups, such as all those that are regularly assessed by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Based on WWF’s findings, the majority of the stocks, 54 percent, are categorized as at high risk of IUU, with an additional 32 perent judged to be at moderate risk. Of the 567 stocks that were assessed, the findings show that 485 stocks fall into these two categories. More than half of the world’s most overexploited stocks are at the highest risk of IUU fishing. Examining IUU risk by location, the WWF analysis shows that in more than one-third of the world’s ocean basins as designated by the FAO, all of these stocks were at high or moderate risk of IUU fishing.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Service NOAA TECHNICAL REPORT NMFS The major responsibilities of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) are to monitor and assess the abundance and geographic distribution of fishery resources, to understand and predict fluctuations in the quantity and distribution of these resources, and to establish levels for their optimum use. NMFS is also charged with the development and implementation of policies for managing national fishing grounds, development and enforcement of domestic fisheries regulations, surveillance of foreign fishing off United States coastal waters, and the development and enforcement of international fishery agreements and policies. NMFS also assists the fishing industry through marketing service and economic analysis programs. and mortgage insurance and vessel construction subsidies. It collects, analyzes, and publishes statistics on various phases of the industry. The NOAA Technical Report NMFS series was established in 1983 to replace two subcategories of the Technical Reports series: "Special Scientific Report-Fisheries" and "Circular." The series contains the following types of reports: Scientific investigations that document long-term continuing programs of NMFS; intensive scientific reports on studies of restricted scope; papers on applied fishery problems; technical reports of general interest intended to aid conservation and management; reports that review in con­ siderable detail and at a high technical level certain broad areas of research; and technical papers originating in economics studies and from management investigations.
