Mr L. P. D. Gertenbach, shortly before he retired after many years as FAO' s Senior Fishery statistician, and as Secretary of the CWP, was commissioned to produce a draft of this Handbook. In finalising this first edition, additional material was submitted by the secretariats of the CWP Member Agencies (CCAMLR, EUROSTAT, FAO, ICCAT, ICSEAF, ICES, NAFO and OECD). In recognition of the workload involved in producing this first edition, the CWP adopted the deliberate policy of concentrating on a single language version. English, as the working language of the CWP, was that selected. At a suitable time after the merits of this edition have been assessed, it is intended that other language versions will be produced. Until such time certain of the tables have been compiled in English, French and Spanish and it is hoped that these will provide a key by which non-English language users may be able to obtain the information they require. The material presented in this document represents only a part of the total Handbook but it was considered useful to issue these sections which are largely self contained. The reader will occasionally find reference to sections not yet prepared. These will be issued as soon as time and resources permit. M.A. Robinson D.G. Cross Senior Fishery Statistician Administrator Fishery Information, Data and Fishery Statistics statistics Service Euro stat FAO Fisheries Department METHODOLOGICAL NOTE In conceiving this Handbook of Fishery Statistics the CWP intended that it should cover the concepts, definitions and related matters as applied to fishery statistics of the Atlantic Ocean and adjacent waters by the CWP Member Agencies. Many of these principles are applied in a wider context but the user is advised to check the validity of such applications. The Handbook was developed to indicate the principles applied by the international agencies in the Atlantic. There has been no attempt to include details of national systems, many of which, having been developed for specific national purposes, differ from those used internationally. Authorities considering introducing or revising national statistical systems are requested to ensure that the system developed incorporates a high degree of compatibility with the international standards. In its efforts to develop useful and practical systems, the CWP is consistently keeping these standards under review and welcomes the comments of the national authorities on the application of these international standards at the national level.

THE CWP AND THE CWP MEMBER AGENCIES An Expert Meeting on Fishery Statistics in the North Atlantic Area was organised by FAO and co­ sponsored by ICES and ICNAF in Edinburgh (Scotland) on 22-29 September 1959 and was attended by 71 participants from 14 countries and 6 inter-governmental agencies. The Expert Group undertook reviews of the requirements of users of fishery statistics and of existing discrepancies in the standards used by FAO, ICES and ICNAF. More importantly it initiated the joint task of these agencies by proposing and encouraging, for a large variety of sectors within the overall fields of national, regional and global fishery statistics, harmonisation in the following important sectors of work in fishery statistics: - concepts and their definitions, - classification of craft, gear, species, areas, etc., - methods (including harmonised questionnaires), - simplification of reporting procedures. The Expert Meeting concluded its report (published in 1962 as FAOFisheriesReport no 3) as follows: (i) The Meeting invites the Governments of Canada, the Federal Republic of Germany, Iceland and the United Kingdom; and ICES, ICNAF and FAO to appoint one expert each to form a continuing Working Party on Fishery Statistics in the North Atlantic Area with the power to co-opt additional members to help them in their task. (ii) The Working Party should keep under continuous review the progress made in the implementation of the recommendations of the Meetings; consult with the officers of governments and of international organisations with respect to difficulties encountered and, keeping in mind the actual state of fishery statistical services in the different countries, make suggestions for further national and international action in its field to governments and international organisations as appropriate. (iii) The Meeting requests the Director-General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations to arrange for its Fisheries Division to function as Secretariat for the meetings of this Working Party. The Tenth Session of the FAO Conference (Rome, 31 October - 20 November 1959) approved this recommendation. Subsequently ICES and ICNAF agreed to participate and support the CWP, as the Continuing Worldng Party on Fishery Statistics in the North Atlantic Area came to be known. The Governments of Canada, the Federal Republic of Germany, Iceland and the United Kingdom also agreed to provide experts to participate in the CWP. Since that time the CWP has performed its appointed tasks, and in 1969, underwent an expansion to include a number of other international agencies and to cover the whole of the Atlantic Ocean. While maintaining the acronym "CWP" it changed its name to the "Co-ordinating Working Party on Atlantic Fishery Statistics". currently the CWP holds formal sessions at 3-4 year intervals, these sessions being attended by the representatives of the secretariats of the member agencies and of the statistical reporting offices of member countries of these agencies. This national representation is co-ordinated by the agencies to give as broad as possible a spectrum of national statistical systems and experiences. The sessions of the CWP and references to the reports of these sessions are shown in Appendix A I. The CWP member agencies now cooperate closely and, in recent years, have organised intersessional meetings, known as Ad hoc Inter-Agency Consultations on Atlantic Fishery Statistics, of representatives of the secretariats. These meetings have had the function of reviewing progress since the last full CWP session and to.identify topics for consideration by the CWP at its next full session. Details of the CWP member agencies are given as Appendix A II. The CWP arrangement is, for the present, confined to the Atlantic, mainly due to the earlier establishment of fishery statistical agencies in that area. In the Pacific, developments have been rather different, but there now seem to be enough agencies concerned with fishery statistics to warrant some kind of formal arrangement for cooperation between them. FAO and SEAFDEC (the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Centre) have already made considerable progress towards the formation of a joint system for the collection of data from Southeast Asian countries. Closer contact is also developing between the South Pacific Commission (through its Tuna and Billfish Programme), the CPPS (Permanent Commission for the South Pacific) and FAO and also with the International North Pacific Fisheries Commission. C. TIME UNITS The CALENDAR (or C/WL) YEAR, the period between 1 January and 31 December, is the annual time unit normally used in fishery statistics. For certain specific purposes (e.g. for Antarctic pelagic whaling fisheries; and fiscal purposes) it is deemed more appropriate to use a SPLIT YEAR. Such situations arise when the sector under consideration exhibits appreciable activity over the end of the calendar year. The end points of the split year may be selected as desired but should be preferably at a time when activity in the sector is reduced. For Antarctic fisheries, the split year is 1 July-30 June. In tabulations where space restricts the labelling of a split year to a single year or where data for calendar and split years are tabulated together, the practice is for the split year to be represented by the calendar year in which the split year ends. Thus a split year recorded in a statistical bulletin as 1982 refers to the split year 1981-82. Attention is drawn to the apparent anomalies that may be observed when comparing data from two sectors of fishery statistics.

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.

BOX; 1408, Lattakia, Syria [email protected] (corresponding author); [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT Syria’s total marine fisheries catches were estimated for the 1950-2010 time period using a reconstruction approach which accounted for all fisheries removals, including unreported commercial landings, discards, and recreational and subsistence catches. All unreported estimates were added to the official data, as reported by the Syrian Arab Republic to the United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Total reconstructed catch for 1950-2010 was around 170,000 t, which is 78% more than the amount reported by Syria to the FAO as their national catch. The unreported components added over 74,000 t of unreported catches, of which 38,600 t were artisanal landings, 16,000 t industrial landings, over 4,000 t recreational catches, 3,000 t subsistence catches and around 12,000 t were discards.

  • Jubilee Field Draft EIA Chapter 4 6 Aug 09.Pdf
    4 ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC BASELINE 4.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter provides a description of the current environmental and socio- economic situation against which the potential impacts of the Jubilee Field Phase 1 development can be assessed and future changes monitored. The chapter presents an overview of the aspects of the environment relating to the surrounding area in which the Jubilee Field Phase 1 development will take place and which may be directly or indirectly affected by the proposed project. This includes the Jubilee Unit Area, the Ghana marine environment at a wider scale and the six districts of the Western Region bordering the marine environment. The Jubilee Unit Area and its regional setting are shown in Figure 4.1. The project area is approximately 132 km west-southwest of the city of Takoradi, 60 km from the nearest shoreline of Ghana, and 75 km from the nearest shoreline of Côte d’Ivoire. Figure 4.1 Project Location and Regional Setting ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT TULLOW GHANA LIMITED 4-1 The baseline description draws on a number of primary and secondary data sources. Primary data sources include recent hydrographic studies undertaken as part of the exploration well drilling programme in the Jubilee field area, as well as an Environmental Baseline Survey (EBS) which was commissioned by Tullow and undertaken by TDI Brooks (2008). An electronic copy of the EBS is attached to this EIS. It is noted that information on the offshore distribution and ecology of marine mammals, turtles and offshore pelagic fish is more limited due to limited historic research in offshore areas.

  • Simulations of Fishing Effects on the Southern Benguela Fish Community Using an Individual-Based Model: Learning from a Comparison with Ecosim
    Ecosystem Approaches to Fisheries in the Southern Benguela Afr. J. mar. Sci. 26: 95–114 2004 95 SIMULATIONS OF FISHING EFFECTS ON THE SOUTHERN BENGUELA FISH COMMUNITY USING AN INDIVIDUAL-BASED MODEL: LEARNING FROM A COMPARISON WITH ECOSIM Y-J. SHIN*, L. J. SHANNON† and P. M. CURY* By applying an individual-based model (OSMOSE) to the southern Benguela ecosystem, a multispecies analysis is proposed, complementary to that provided by the application of ECOPATH/ECOSIM models. To reconstruct marine foodwebs, OSMOSE is based on the hypothesis that predation is a size-structured process. In all, 12 fish species, chosen for their importance in terms of biomass and catches, are explicitly modelled. Growth, repro- duction and mortality parameters are required to model their dynamics and trophic interactions. Maps of mean spatial distribution of the species are compiled from published literature. Taking into account the spatial component is necessary because spatial co-occurrence determines potential interactions between predatory fish and prey fish of suitable size. To explore ecosystem effects of fishing, different fishing scenarios, previously examined using ECOSIM, are simulated using the OSMOSE model. They explore the effects of targeting fish species in the southern Benguela considered to be predators (Cape hake Merluccius capensis and M. paradoxus) or prey (anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus, sardine Sardinops sagax, round herring Etrumeus whiteheadi). Simulation results are compared and are generally consistent with those obtained using an ECOSIM model. This cross-validation appears to be a promising means of evaluating the robustness of model outputs, when separate validation of marine ecosystem models are still difficult to perform.

  • 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).
