Fisheries Update for Monday August 26, 2019 Groundfish Harvests Fisheries Update for Monday August 26, 2019 Groundfish Harvests through 8/17/2019, IFQ Halibut/Sablefish & Crab Harvests through 8/26/2019 Fishing activity in the Bering Sea /Aleutian Islands A season Groundfish Fisheries for the week ending on August 17, 2019, last week's Pollock harvest slowed down with an 8,000MT reduction from the previous week. The Pollock 8 season harvest is 60% completed thru last week. Last week's B season Pollock harvest came in at 48, 126MT fishing has .slowed down last week. The total groundfish harvest last week was 58,255MT (130million pounds). We are seeing increased effort in the Aleutian Islands on Pacific Ocean Perch last week's harvest of 1 ,938MT and Atka mackerel1 ,816MT. Halibut and Sablefish harvest statewide continues to see increased harvests, The Halibut harvest is 11.8 million pounds harvested 67% of the allocation has been taken.

  • Using Ecologically Based Relationships to Predict Distribution of Flathead Sole Hippoglossoides Elassodon in the Eastern Bering Sea
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 290: 251–262, 2005 Published April 13 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Using ecologically based relationships to predict distribution of flathead sole Hippoglossoides elassodon in the eastern Bering Sea Christopher N. Rooper*, Mark Zimmermann, Paul D. Spencer Alaska Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, 7600 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, Washington 98115-6349, USA ABSTRACT: This study describes a method for modeling and predicting, from biological and physi- cal variables, habitat use by a commercially harvested groundfish species. Models for eastern Bering Sea flathead sole Hippoglossoides elassodon were developed from 3 relationships describing the response of organism abundance along a resource continua. The model was parameterized for 1998 to 2000 trawl survey data and tested on 2001 and 2002 data. Catch per unit effort (CPUE) of flathead sole had a curvilinear relationship with depth, peaking at 140 m, a proportional relationship with bot- tom water temperature, a positive curvilinear relationship with potential cover (invertebrate shelter- ing organisms such as anemones, corals, sponges, etc.), a negative relationship with increasing mud:sand ratio in the sediment, and an asymptotic relationship with potential prey abundance. The predicted CPUE was highly correlated (r2 = 0.63) to the observations (1998 to 2000) and the model accurately predicted CPUE (r2 = 0.58) in the test data set (2001 and 2002). Because this method of developing habitat-based abundance models is founded on ecological relationships, it should be more robust for predicting fish distributions than statistically based models. Thus, the model can be used to examine the consequences of fishing activity (e.g.

Summary Ectoparasites, attaching mainly to the fins or gills, are a particularly conspicuous part of the parasite fauna of marine fishes. In particular the dominant copepods, have received much interest due to their effects on host populations. However, still little is known on the copepod fauna on fishes for many localities and their temporal stability as long-term observations are largely absent. The aim of this project was two-fold: 1) to deliver a current inventory of ectoparasitic copepods in fishes in the southern Wadden Sea around Texel and 2) to compare the current parasitic copepod fauna with the one from 1968 in the same area, using data published in an internal NIOZ report and additional unpublished original notes. In total, 47 parasite species have been recorded on 52 fish species in the southern Wadden Sea to date. The two copepod species, where quantitative comparisons between 1968 and 2010 were possible for their host, the European flounder (Platichthys flesus), showed different trends: Whereas Acanthochondria cornuta seems not to have altered its infection rate or per host abundance between years, Lepeophtheirus pectoralis has shifted towards infection of smaller hosts, as well as to a stronger increase of per-host abundance with increasing host length.
