  • Models for an Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries
    ISSN 0429-9345 FAO FISHERIES 477 TECHNICAL PAPER 477 Models for an ecosystem approach to fisheries Models for an ecosystem approach to fisheries This report reviews the methods available for assessing the impacts of interactions between species and fisheries and their implications for marine fisheries management. A brief description of the various modelling approaches currently in existence is provided, highlighting in particular features of these models that have general relevance to the field of ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF). The report concentrates on the currently available models representative of general types such as bionergetic models, predator-prey models and minimally realistic models. Short descriptions are given of model parameters, assumptions and data requirements. Some of the advantages, disadvantages and limitations of each of the approaches in addressing questions pertaining to EAF are discussed. The report concludes with some recommendations for moving forward in the development of multispecies and ecosystem models and for the prudent use of the currently available models as tools for provision of scientific information on fisheries in an ecosystem context.

  • An Integrated Study of Economic Effects of and Vulnerabilities to Global Warming on the Barents Sea Cod Fisheries
    Climatic Change (2008) 87:251–262 DOI 10.1007/s10584-007-9338-0 An integrated study of economic effects of and vulnerabilities to global warming on the Barents Sea cod fisheries Arne Eide Received: 6 July 2006 /Accepted: 3 October 2007 / Published online: 27 November 2007 # Springer Science + Business Media B.V. 2007 Abstract The Barents Sea area is characterised by a highly fluctuating physical environment causing substantial variations in the ecosystems and fisheries depending upon this. Simulations assuming different management regimes have been carried out to study how physical and biological effects of global warming influence the Barents Sea cod fisheries. A regional, high-resolution representation of the B2 world region (OECD90) scenario from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was used to calculate water temperatures and plankton biomasses by hydrodynamic modelling. These results were included in simulations performed by a multi-fleet, multi-species model, by which a fully integrated model linking to the global circulation model to the Barents Sea fisheries through a regional downscaling to the Barents Sea area is constructed. One factor of particular importance for the natural annual biological variations is the occasional inflow of young herring into the Barents Sea area. The herring inflow is difficult to predict and links to dynamical systems outside the Barents Sea area, complex recruitment mechanisms and oceanographic conditions. These processes are in the study represented by a stochastic representation of herring inflow based on historical observations. According to the performed simulations the biomass fluctuations may slightly increase over the next 25 years, possibly caused by changes in temperature patterns.

  • Management of Herring, Capelin and Cod in the Greater Barents Sea - Economic Optimal Management from a Norwegian Point of View
    IIFET 2000 Proceedings Management of Herring, Capelin and Cod in the Greater Barents Sea - Economic Optimal Management from a Norwegian point of view Kjetil Helstad The Norwegian College of Fishery Science, University of Tromsø, N-9037 Tromsø, Norway E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract. In this paper the Norwegian economic gains / costs of rebuilding the Norwegian spring-spawning herring (Clupea harrengus) is analysed by including the effect of the herring stock on the cod (Gadus morhua) and capelin (Mallotus villosus) fishery in the Barents Sea. The herring stock collapsed in the late 1960's and went through a rebuilding period until mid 1990's. The size of the herring spawning stock affects the productivity of cod and capelin. The effects are analysed by combining the existing bioeconomic model for the Barents Sea (AGGMULT/ECONMULT) and a bioeconomic model for herring in the Norwegian Sea. Two management strategies for herring are studied under different levels of cod TAC: 1) The possible harvest control rule proposed by ICES (ICES), and 2) The herring stock is kept at a low level (Low). Present value of contribution margin in the cod fishery and especially capelin fishery increases when the herring stock is at a low level. The reduction of present value of the contribution margin in the herring fishery in the Low strategy causes the total contribution margin to decrease compared to a large herring stock (ICES). In the low herring stock simulations a large herring fishery takes place in the beginning to reduce the herring stock. If this fishery is not included, the difference in total contribution margin increases a lot.

Based on the outcome of this meeting STECF should propose how better bio-economic advice can be delivered in the future. Background STECF decided in 2003 to organize a series of subgroup meetings with the purpose of investigating the availability of bio-economic models, which could be used to support the advice of STECF on fisheries management. Firstly, a joint subgroup of SGECA and SGRST was asked to review the EIAA model, which is used to assess the economic repercussions of the ACFM advice i.e. fisheries that are subject to quota management. Secondly, a subgroup for Mediterranean fisheries should review models appropriate for economic assessment of fisheries not subject to quota management. Thirdly, the joint SGECA-SGRST subgroup was asked to review available models in a broader context.

  • Economic Impacts of Global Warming a Study of the Fishing Industry in North Norway
    Fisheries Research 56 (2002) 261–274 Economic impacts of global warming A study of the fishing industry in North Norway Arne Eide*, Knut Heen1 The Norwegian College of Fishery Science, University of Tromsø, N-9037 Tromsø, Norway Received 29 June 2000; received in revised form 27 March 2001; accepted 14 June 2001 Abstract Several studies have been carried out on the possible physical and biological effects of global warming in the Barents Sea area. Based on these studies this paper discusses the effects global warming may have on the Barents Sea fisheries and the implications for the North Norwegian economy. The first has been studied using the multispecies, multifleet model ECONMULT, and the latter by applying an Input–Output model. A range of possible environmental scenarios based on the physical and biological studies of the effects of global warming has been examined. Both positive and negative biological growth effects have been considered, changing the current growth rates by Æ25%. A more narrow range of management regimes has been applied, reflecting the current management rules and fishery policy in the region. The paper analyses the potential of global warming for changing the catches, profitability, employment impacts and income generation by the Barents Sea fisheries. # 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by NORA - Norwegian Open Research Archives 20th anniversary of the PINRO-IMR cooperation in the investigations of fish feeding in the Barents Sea – results and perspectives Andrey V. Dolgov1, Natalia A. Yaragina1, Emma L. Orlova1 Bjarte Bogstad2, Edda Johannesen2 and Sigbjørn Mehl2 1 PINRO 2Institute of Marine Research Abstract Since 1986 the Institute of Marine Research, (IMR), Norway and the Knipovich Polar Research Institute of Marine Fisheries and Oceanography (PINRO), Russia, have carried out a joint research program on the trophic relationships in the Barents Sea. As part of this program, the two institutions have exchanged quantitative diet data from fish in the Barents Sea, mainly cod. Diet data can give information about important trophic links in the ecosystem and the strength of those links. Therefore, diet data is important for quantifying interactions between fish stocks, e.g. by calculating how natural mortality due to predation influences their dynamics. In this paper we give an overview of diet data collected by IMR and PINRO during the last 20 years, and present some results and perspectives for future work. Background Trophic investigations using quantitative diet data started in the Barents Sea in the 1920s- 1930s (e.g. Idelson, 1929; Zenkevich and Brotskaya, 1931; Zatsepin and Petrova, 1939; Zatsepin, 1939; Brown and Cheng, 1946) and continued during the 1950-1960s (e.g. Grinkevich, 1957; Sysoeva, 1958; Ponomarenko, 1958). After this period, studies on fish feeding in the Barents Sea were not so intensive and used mainly qualitative diet analyses (e.g.
