  • Fronts in the World Ocean's Large Marine Ecosystems. ICES CM 2007
    - 1 - This paper can be freely cited without prior reference to the authors International Council ICES CM 2007/D:21 for the Exploration Theme Session D: Comparative Marine Ecosystem of the Sea (ICES) Structure and Function: Descriptors and Characteristics Fronts in the World Ocean’s Large Marine Ecosystems Igor M. Belkin and Peter C. Cornillon Abstract. Oceanic fronts shape marine ecosystems; therefore front mapping and characterization is one of the most important aspects of physical oceanography. Here we report on the first effort to map and describe all major fronts in the World Ocean’s Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs). Apart from a geographical review, these fronts are classified according to their origin and physical mechanisms that maintain them. This first-ever zero-order pattern of the LME fronts is based on a unique global frontal data base assembled at the University of Rhode Island. Thermal fronts were automatically derived from 12 years (1985-1996) of twice-daily satellite 9-km resolution global AVHRR SST fields with the Cayula-Cornillon front detection algorithm. These frontal maps serve as guidance in using hydrographic data to explore subsurface thermohaline fronts, whose surface thermal signatures have been mapped from space. Our most recent study of chlorophyll fronts in the Northwest Atlantic from high-resolution 1-km data (Belkin and O’Reilly, 2007) revealed a close spatial association between chlorophyll fronts and SST fronts, suggesting causative links between these two types of fronts.

  • Status of the South African and Namibian Horse Mackerel
    Oceana Sustainability Report 2019 Status and Management of Horse mackerel in South Africa and Namibia, 2019 Capricorn Marine Environmental (Pty) Ltd David Japp, Daniel Droste and Zonke Gumede South Africa Biology and Stock Dynamics Horse mackerel (Trachurus capensis), better known as ‘maasbanker’ in the Western Cape, are similar to other Trachurus species caught globally in many other parts of the world. They are also classified as carangids which typically are game fish and fast swimmers (such as the kingfish commonly caught in the warmer waters of the South African east coast). Maasbanker, however, differ somewhat in that they are primarily filter feeders, although they do have a fairly broad diet that includes plankton and small swimming crustaceans (such as krill) and small fish and squid. What makes them a good commercial species is their shoaling behaviour, with large aggregations occurring in areas where plankton is abundant. Such is the case with the South African fishery, particularly on the east coast around the Agulhas Bank where adult maasbanker shoal and are targeted by the mid-water trawl fishery. Maasbanker are difficult to catch, as they are strong swimmers and migrate up and down in the water column and occur from the shallowest waters out to the deep waters of the continental shelf. In South Africa, the fisheries for massbanker can be broadly separated between three fishery sectors – a fishery using midwater trawls, a second using bottom trawls (typically for hake) and a third fishery targeting juvenile maasbanker using purse seine gear such as that used for sardine and anchovy. These variations, combined with the behaviour of maasbanker, require specific management interventions to ensure that the fishery remains sustainable into the future.

  • A Retrospective Analysis of Shark Catches Made by Pelagic Longliners
    OCEANOGRAPHIC RESEARCH INSTITUTE, DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA, AFFILIATED WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF KWAZULU-NATAL A retrospective analysis of shark catches made by pelagic longliners off the east coast of South Africa and biology and life history of shortfin mako shark, Isurus oxyrinchus Submitted in fulfillment of the academic requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Oceanographic Research Institute, affiliated with the School of Biological and Conservation Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban. By Alan Foulis February 2013 i i. Abstract Oceanic pelagic shark species are under threat worldwide as fishing effort increases and they are taken as both targeted and bycatch. It is widely recognized that the life history characteristics of sharks make them inherently susceptible to over- exploitation and as a result many shark-directed fisheries have collapsed. It is therefore essential that good-quality data are collected and analyzed in order to provide fisheries managers with the right information to manage these species sustainably. South Africa has a pelagic longline fishery which includes tuna-, swordfish-, and shark-directed vessels. This study analyzed logbook (1998 – 2010) and observer data (2002 – 2010) provided by the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in order to assess the catch composition and standardized catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) of sharks captured as both targeted catch and bycatch. The study area consisted of four zones moving east of the 20°E meridian: the Agulhas Bank (20°E – 24°E), South Coast (25°E – 29°E), East Coast 1 (30°E – 32.8°E), and East Coast 2 (32.9°E – 36.5°E).

The development of comprehensive databases is therefore critical to support the effective monitoring of marine ecosystems and species for the implementation of evidence-based policy and conservation management for sustainable use. The SEAKEYS project funded by the DST/NRF/SANBI Foundational Biodiversity Knowledge and Information research funding Programme (FBIP) therefore aims to unlock fundamental biodiversity information using DNA barcoding to generate species records and distribution databases for priority ecosystems and groups. AIMS & OBJECTIVES High levels of genetic variation To describe and undertake associated genetic (DNA barcoding), Taxonomically discordant BINS (28) with good sample sizes (5-65 systematic and ecological research for; samples) were re-analysed and corrected using the DNA barcode.
