An organizational element within NOAA, the Office of Fisheries is responsible for fisheries policy and the direction of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). In addition to its formal publications, the NMFS uses the NOAA Technical Memorandum series to issue informal scientific and technical publications when complete formal review and editorial processing are not appropriate or feasible.

  • Multiscale Habitat Suitability Modeling for Canary Rockfish
    MULTISCALE HABITAT SUITABILITY MODELING FOR CANARY ROCKFISH (SEBASTES PINNIGER) ALONG THE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST By Portia Naomi Saucedo A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Natural Resources: Environmental and Natural Resource Sciences Committee Membership Dr. Jim Graham, Committee Chair Dr. Brian Tissot, Committee Member Dr. Joe Tyburczy, Committee Member Dr. Alison Purcell O’Dowd, Graduate Coordinator July 2017 ABSTRACT MULTISCALE HABITAT SUITABILITY MODELING FOR CANARY ROCKFISH (SEBASTES PINNIGER) ALONG THE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST Portia N. Saucedo Detailed spatially-explicit data of the potential habitat of commercially important rockfish species are a critical component for the purposes of marine conservation, evaluation, and planning. Predictive habitat modeling techniques are widely used to identify suitable habitat in un-surveyed regions. This study elucidates the predicted distribution of canary rockfish (Sebastes pinniger) along the largely un-surveyed northern California coast using data from visual underwater surveys and predictive terrain complexity covariates. I used Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) modelling software to identify regions of suitable habitat for S. pinniger greater than nine cm in total length at two spatial scales. The results of this study indicate the most important environmental covariate was proximity to the interface between hard and soft substrate. I also examined the predicted probability of presence for each model run. MaxEnt spatial predictions varied in predicted probability for broad-scale and each of the fine-scale regions. Uncertainty in predictions was considered at several levels and spatial uncertainty was quantified and mapped. The predictive modeling efforts allowed spatial predictions outside the sampled area at both the broad- and fine-scales accessed.

  • Guide to the Coastal Marine Fishes of California
    STATE OF CALIFORNIA THE RESOURCES AGENCY DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME FISH BULLETIN 157 GUIDE TO THE COASTAL MARINE FISHES OF CALIFORNIA by DANIEL J. MILLER and ROBERT N. LEA Marine Resources Region 1972 ABSTRACT This is a comprehensive identification guide encompassing all shallow marine fishes within California waters. Geographic range limits, maximum size, depth range, a brief color description, and some meristic counts including, if available: fin ray counts, lateral line pores, lateral line scales, gill rakers, and vertebrae are given. Body proportions and shapes are used in the keys and a state- ment concerning the rarity or commonness in California is given for each species. In all, 554 species are described. Three of these have not been re- corded or confirmed as occurring in California waters but are included since they are apt to appear. The remainder have been recorded as occurring in an area between the Mexican and Oregon borders and offshore to at least 50 miles. Five of California species as yet have not been named or described, and ichthyologists studying these new forms have given information on identification to enable inclusion here. A dichotomous key to 144 families includes an outline figure of a repre- sentative for all but two families. Keys are presented for all larger families, and diagnostic features are pointed out on most of the figures. Illustrations are presented for all but eight species. Of the 554 species, 439 are found primarily in depths less than 400 ft., 48 are meso- or bathypelagic species, and 67 are deepwater bottom dwelling forms rarely taken in less than 400 ft.

  • 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.
