The presence of the late-migratory nucleus stage oocytes and post ovulatory follicles (POFs) in the same ovaries were observed continuously during the sampling period. The daily percentage of spawning females with ovaries containing: late migratory nucleus (MN) stage, POFs (present up to 12-24h from the spawning event) was calculated as 11.7% and 18.6% respectively. The average percentage of females presenting one of the two different states was 15.3% which indicated that Mediterranean horse mackerel had high spawning rates in the Sea of Marmara. Our results indicated that T. mediterraneus is a multiple spawner and females spawn approximately every 6.6 days, therefore 20 times in the spawning period May-August 2009. Keywords: Spawning frequency, post ovulatory follicles, Mediterranean horse mackerel Marmara Denizi’nde Bulunan Trachurus mediterraneus (Carangidae) Türünün Üreme Sıklığı Özet Bu çalışmayla Akdeniz havzasında ilk defa T. mediterraneus türünün üreme sıklığına ilişkin değerlendirme ortaya konmuştur.

Do Some Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Skip Spawning?
SCRS/2006/088 Col. Vol. Sci. Pap. ICCAT, 60(4): 1141-1153 (2007) DO SOME ATLANTIC BLUEFIN TUNA SKIP SPAWNING? David H. Secor1 SUMMARY During the spawning season for Atlantic bluefin tuna, some adults occur outside known spawning centers, suggesting either unknown spawning regions, or fundamental errors in our current understanding of bluefin tuna reproductive schedules. Based upon recent scientific perspectives, skipped spawning (delayed maturation and non-annual spawning) is possibly prevalent in moderately long-lived marine species like bluefin tuna. In principle, skipped spawning represents a trade-off between current and future reproduction. By foregoing reproduction, an individual can incur survival and growth benefits that accrue in deferred reproduction. Across a range of species, skipped reproduction was positively correlated with longevity, but for non-sturgeon species, adults spawned at intervals at least once every two years. A range of types of skipped spawning (constant, younger, older, event skipping; and delays in first maturation) was modeled for the western Atlantic bluefin tuna population to test for their effects on the egg-production-per-recruit biological reference point (stipulated at 20% and 40%). With the exception of extreme delays in maturation, skipped spawning had relatively small effect in depressing fishing mortality (F) threshold values. This was particularly true in comparison to scenarios of a juvenile fishery (ages 4-7), which substantially depressed threshold F values. Indeed, recent F estimates for 1990-2002 western Atlantic bluefin tuna stock assessments were in excess of threshold F values when juvenile size classes were exploited. If western bluefin tuna are currently maturing at an older age than is currently assessed (i.e., 10 v. -

Asthma, bronchitis, stroke, and wounds arc the most usual illnesses treated by animal-based medicines. These results corroborate Marques' zoothcrapeutic universality hypothesis. According to him, all human cultures that prcscnt a developed medical system do use animals as medicines.

Fuad, Baskoro M. S., Riyanto M., Mawardi W., 2019 Catch Characteristics on Stationary Lift Net Using Light Emitting Diode (LED) and Kerosene Lights in Pasuruan Waters
Catch characteristics on stationary lift net using light emitting diode (LED) and kerosene lights in Pasuruan waters 1Fuad, 2Mulyono S. Baskoro, 2Mochammad Riyanto, 2Wazir Mawardi 1 Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Brawijaya University, Malang, Indonesia; 2 Marine Fisheries Technology, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Bogor Agricultural University, West Java, Indonesia. Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. Light in stationary lift nets (SLN) is important to the extent that it can determine the composition of species, size and number of fish caught. Different types of light are often used in aggregating certain types of fish. This study aims to find the best type of light for SLN and to determine the characteristics of the catch between light emitting diode (LED) and kerosene lights. The results showed that there were no significant differences in species composition of fish caught in both LED and kerosene lights. These types of lights do not affect the composition of fish species, but have a significant effect on the amount of catch. The most caught fish (target species) were short mackerel (Rastrelliger brachysoma) and yellowstripe scad (Selaroides leptolepis). The SLN operated with kerosene lights caught short mackerel (R. brachysoma) and yellowstripe scad (S. leptolepis) of bigger size compared to SLN with LED lights. The average length and weight of short mackerel caught with kerosene lights were 146.3 mm and 37.17 grams, respectively. The average length and weight of yellowstripe scad (S. leptolepis) caught with kerosene lights were 117.04 mm and 21.5 grams, respectively. However, only a small portion of catch, 4.5%, had already reached its mature size (Lm), while the rest of the catch (95.5%) had not reached its mature size. -
NOAA's Description of the U.S Commercial Fisheries Including The
6.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE PELAGIC LONGLINE FISHERY FOR ATLANTIC HMS The HMS FMP provides a thorough description of the U.S. fisheries for Atlantic HMS, including sectors of the pelagic longline fishery. Below is specific information regarding the catch of pelagic longline fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico and off the Southeast coast of the United States. For more detailed information on the fishery, please refer to the HMS FMP. 6.1 Pelagic Longline Gear The U.S. pelagic longline fishery for Atlantic HMS primarily targets swordfish, yellowfin tuna, or bigeye tuna in various areas and seasons. Secondary target species include dolphin, albacore tuna, pelagic sharks including mako, thresher, and porbeagle sharks, as well as several species of large coastal sharks. Although this gear can be modified (i.e., depth of set, hook type, etc.) to target either swordfish, tunas, or sharks, like other hook and line fisheries, it is a multispecies fishery. These fisheries are opportunistic, switching gear style and making subtle changes to the fishing configuration to target the best available economic opportunity of each individual trip. Longline gear sometimes attracts and hooks non-target finfish with no commercial value, as well as species that cannot be retained by commercial fishermen, such as billfish. Pelagic longline gear is composed of several parts. See Figure 6.1. Figure 6.1. Typical U.S. pelagic longline gear. Source: Arocha, 1997. When targeting swordfish, the lines generally are deployed at sunset and hauled in at sunrise to take advantage of the nocturnal near-surface feeding habits of swordfish. In general, longlines targeting tunas are set in the morning, deeper in the water column, and hauled in the evening. -

Does Climate Change Bolster the Case for Fishery Reform in Asia? Christopher Costello∗
Does Climate Change Bolster the Case for Fishery Reform in Asia? Christopher Costello∗ I examine the estimated economic, ecological, and food security effects of future fishery management reform in Asia. Without climate change, most Asian fisheries stand to gain substantially from reforms. Optimizing fishery management could increase catch by 24% and profit by 34% over business- as-usual management. These benefits arise from fishing some stocks more conservatively and others more aggressively. Although climate change is expected to reduce carrying capacity in 55% of Asian fisheries, I find that under climate change large benefits from fishery management reform are maintained, though these benefits are heterogeneous. The case for reform remains strong for both catch and profit, though these numbers are slightly lower than in the no-climate change case. These results suggest that, to maximize economic output and food security, Asian fisheries will benefit substantially from the transition to catch shares or other economically rational fishery management institutions, despite the looming effects of climate change. Keywords: Asia, climate change, fisheries, rights-based management JEL codes: Q22, Q28 I. Introduction Global fisheries have diverged sharply over recent decades. High governance, wealthy economies have largely adopted output controls or various forms of catch shares, which has helped fisheries in these economies overcome inefficiencies arising from overfishing (Worm et al. 2009) and capital stuffing (Homans and Wilen 1997), and allowed them to turn the corner toward sustainability (Costello, Gaines, and Lynham 2008) and profitability (Costello et al. 2016). But the world’s largest fishing region, Asia, has instead largely pursued open access and input controls, achieving less long-run fishery management success (World Bank 2017).
