DESCRIBING DUSKY ROCKFISH (Sebastes Ci/Iatus) HABITAT in the GULF of ALASKA USING HISTORICAL DATA
DESCRIBING DUSKY ROCKFISH (Sebastes ci/iatus) HABITAT IN THE GULF OF ALASKA USING HISTORICAL DATA A University Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Hayward In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Marine Sciences by Rebecca Francesca Reuter March, 1999 Abstract Aspects of dusky rockfish (Sebastes ciliatus) habitat in the Gulf of Alaska are described using historical data sources. In this study Alaskan groundfish fishery data collected by observers between 1990-96 and research survey data collected from three triennial surveys conducted by the National Marine Fisheries Service were used. These two data sets provide data that are essential in the preliminary description of the habitat and ecology of S. ciliatus. Analyses using techniques such as geographic information systems (GIS) to describe the geographic distribution and hierarchical cluster analysis to describe rockfish species associations with S. ciliatus provide results that describe some of the parameters of their essential habitat. S. cilia/us occur in great abundance over localized areas throughout the Gulf of Alaska. Results of analyses using fishery data indicate that fishermen findS. ciliatus in abundance near mouths of submarine gullies/canyons and at deep banks. Analysis of survey data show that areas of S. ciliatus habitat are not adequately sampled, but they do support the results of the fishery data by showing that S. ciliatus do not have a dispersed distribution. The depth range where most adultS. ciliatus aggregations occur are located at I 00 - 200 m. Tllis information may be used to suggest a management scheme that calculates localized quotas for these habitat locations. -

CALIFORNIA MARINE FISH LANDINGS FOR 1972 LEO PINKAS Marine Resources Region 1.1. INTRODUCTION The protection, propagation, and wise utilization of California's living marine resources (established as common property by statute, Section 1600, Fish and Game Code) is dependent upon the welding of biological, environment- al, economic, and sociological factors. Fundamental to each of these factors, as well as the entire management pro- cess, are harvest records. The California Department of Fish and Game began gathering commercial fisheries land- ing data in 1916. Commercial fish catches were first published in 1929 for the years 1926 and 1927. This report, the 32nd in the landing series, is for the calendar year 1972. It summarizes commercial fishing activities in marine as well as fresh waters and includes the catches of the sportfishing partyboat fleet. Preliminary landing data are published annually in the circular series which also enumerates certain fishery products produced from the catch. -

Localized Depletion of Three Alaska Rockfish Species Dana Hanselman NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska
Biology, Assessment, and Management of North Pacific Rockfishes 493 Alaska Sea Grant College Program • AK-SG-07-01, 2007 Localized Depletion of Three Alaska Rockfish Species Dana Hanselman NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska Paul Spencer NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Resource Ecology and Fisheries Management (REFM) Division, Seattle, Washington Kalei Shotwell NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska Rebecca Reuter NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, REFM Division, Seattle, Washington Abstract The distributions of some rockfish species in Alaska are clustered. Their distribution and relatively sedentary movement patterns could make localized depletion of rockfish an ecological or conservation concern. Alaska rockfish have varying and little-known genetic stock structures. Rockfish fishing seasons are short and intense and usually confined to small areas. If allowable catches are set for large management areas, the genetic, age, and size structures of the population could change if the majority of catch is harvested from small concentrated areas. In this study, we analyzed data collected by the North Pacific Observer Program from 1991 to 2004 to assess localized depletion of Pacific ocean perch (Sebastes alutus), northern rockfish S.( polyspinis), and dusky rockfish (S. variabilis). The data were divided into blocks with areas of approxi- mately 10,000 km2 and 5,000 km2 of consistent, intense fishing. We used two different block sizes to consider the size for which localized deple- tion could be detected. For each year, the Leslie depletion estimator was used to determine whether catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) values in each 494 Hanselman et al.—Three Alaska Rockfish Species block declined as a function of cumulative catch. -

Fairbanks, Alaska December 2014 Abstract This study explored the extent to which variations in biological characteristics, environmental and economic factors, and management strategies have affected the tendency for rockfish to become overfished. The analysis used data on 5 species of rockfish that account for more than 95% of commercial catch of rockfish in the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) and Bering Sea and Aleutian Island (BSAI) management regions. These species are: Shortraker Rockfish ( Sebastes borealis ), Pacific Ocean Perch ( Sebastes alutus ), Northern Rockfish ( Sebastes polyspinis ), Dusky Rockfish ( Sebastes variabilis ), and Shortspine Thornyhead ( Sebastolobus alascanus ). Fishery management models often treat BMSY , the biomass level that maximizes sustainable yield, as a critical reference point; whenever the biomass of a federally managed fish or shellfish stock is estimated at less than 0.5× BMSY , the stock is declared “overfished” and managers are required to develop a recovery plan that will restore stock abundance above BMSY within about one generation length. Because estimates of BMSY are unavailable for some GOA and BSAI rockfish stocks included in this analysis and because we were interested in developing a model that could be applied to data-poor stocks, we explored two proxies for BMSY .
