  • Electronic Tracking of Fish Aggregating Devices (PDF)
    A fact sheet from Sept 2014 Electronic Tracking of Fish Aggregating Devices Monitoring a frequently-used tuna fishing gear The problem Today’s purse seine fisheries for tropical tuna rely heavily on fish aggregating devices (FADs) to support record- high catch levels. An estimated 100,000 of these drifting, floating objects are deployed annually in the oceans. Tuna and other species gather beneath the FADs, which are generally built out of rafts, synthetic ropes, and plastic webbing that descends as far as 100 meters below the water’s surface.1 Purse seine fishing vessels catch tuna by encircling them in large nets and hauling them on board. The FADs help fishermen attract and locate tuna schools, but they also ensnare other species, such as vulnerable sharks, juvenile tunas, and sea turtles, that gather around the floating devices. The high numbers of these drifting rafts in use have been shown to affect migration patterns of tuna.2 The proliferation of these artificial objects has added to the growth in marine litter in our oceans and has contributed significantly to the dramatic decline of Pacific bigeye tuna populations. Still, despite the ecological consequences of unmanaged FAD use, no management or monitoring systems effectively regulate this gear that is used to catch almost half of the world’s tuna. The solution There is growing consensus among scientists, fishery managers, fishermen, and conservationists that FAD fisheries must be better managed. At an international symposium in 2011, scientists and managers endorsed a number of improvements.3 They called on: • Fishing vessels to share basic technical data on the number of drifting FADs deployed and actively monitored by vessels and companies, and the movement and range of the devices throughout an ocean area.

  • Setting the Seine: a Matter of Luck Knowledge and Beliefs of Purse Seine Captains in Juwana
    SETTING THE SEINE: A MATTER OF LUCK KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEFS OF PURSE SEINE CAPTAINS IN JUWANA I. ANTUNES ABSTRACT Setting the seine closely depends on the weather, the direction and strength of the winds and currents and on the position of the FADs or rumpon. The Java Sea offers a fishing ground govemed by a typical monsoon climate marked by a complete reversaI of the wind regime which directly affects the setting of the currents. Within twenty years, the pelagie fishery on the north coast of Central Java has experienced a rapid evolution and development. The masters of the purse seine fishing strategy have been forced to leam, innovate, adapt and discover new fishing grounds to meet the new production demand. If today, a large number of captains have become real experts, successful purse seine fishing remains for many of them a gamble which is a matter of luck and of fate. KEYWORDS : purse seine, fishing strategy, knowledge, fishing grounds, perception of the sea, beliefs. ABSTRAK Kegiatan "tawur" sangat tergantung pada cuaca, arah dan kekuatan angin serta posisi "rumpon". Laut Jawa memiliki daerah penangkapan yang dipengaruhi olah musim yang ditandai olah angin yang berlawanan yang mempengaruhi sifat arah arus. Dalam 20 tahun, perikanan pelagis di utara Jawa Tengah mengalami evolusi dan perkembangan yang cepat. Nakhoda kapal "purse seine" dipaksa belajar, berinovasi, beradaptasi dan menemukan daerah­ daerah penangkapan barn, agar dapat memenuhi permintaan akan produksi ikan. Bila saat ini, sejumlah besar nakhoda telah menjadi benar- benar ahli, namun penangkapan yang berhasil, bagi sementera mereka, masih merupakan suatu untung-untungan.

    water Review MSFD In-Depth Knowledge of the Marine Environment as the Stepping Stone to Perform Marine Spatial Planning in Greece Theodora Paramana 1,*, Aikaterini Karditsa 2, Niki Milatou 3, Stelios Petrakis 2 , Persefoni Megalofonou 3, Serafim Poulos 2 and Manos Dassenakis 1 1 Laboratory of Environmental Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 15784 Athens, Greece; [email protected] 2 Laboratory of Physical Geography, Faculty of Geology & Geoenvironment, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 15784 Athens, Greece; [email protected] (A.K.); [email protected] (S.P.); [email protected] (S.P.) 3 Section of Zoology-Marine Biology, Faculty of Biology, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 15784 Athens, Greece; [email protected] (N.M.); [email protected] (P.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +30-210-7274724 Abstract: The multiple anthropogenic activities taking place in the marine environment increase and create a high demand for maritime space. The pressures generated thereof on coastal and marine resources require an integrated planning and management approach. The MSPD (2014/89/EU) forms the legislative framework to regulate maritime activities and ensure a sustainable use of the marine environment. Based on the MSFD (2008/56/EC), the present study provides an overview of the state of the marine environment in Greece and the existing pressures while examining the potential contribution of MSFD knowledge to the MSPD implementation, identifying possible knowledge gaps Citation: Paramana, T.; Karditsa, A.; for the subsequent MSP process phases. It is supported that the MSFD constitutes the best available Milatou, N.; Petrakis, S.; scientific knowledge about the ecosystem and its dynamics, and provides an open access database Megalofonou, P.; Poulos, S.; which should be optimally used in the MSP process.
