STATE OF WASHINGTON, DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE.......................................... 259 A. Overview and Terms of Reference During the Conference on Coordination of Fisheries Regulations Between Canada and the United States (April 1959, Vancouver B.C.), the Ad Hoc Committee on Trawl Fishery Regulations recommended that the governments of Canada and the United States establish a continuing group made up of administrative and technical representatives of Oregon, Washington and Canada to review trawl regulations, to exchange information of status of bottom fish stocks, and to continue, enhance and coordinate bottom fish research programs. The Technical Sub-committee (TSC) was then created by the Committee on Trawl Fishery Regulations (now the Canada-U.S. Groundfish Committee) at the trawl committee meeting held in Seattle, Washington, on November 4, 1959. The TSC first met in Portland, Oregon, on January 19-20, 1960. Dr. K.S. Ketchen (Canada) served as Chairman. Member agencies at the time were the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (now the Department of Fisheries and Oceans), Washington Department of Fisheries (now the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife), Fish Commission of Oregon (now the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife), and the California Department of Fish and Game. In 1972, two more agencies became members – the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries (now the National Marine Fisheries Service). The TSC has met at least annually since 1960 and submitted a processed report of each meeting to its Parent Committee. These terms of reference did not apply to Pacific halibut, whose research and management are the responsibility of the International Pacific Halibut Commission: 1. Exchange information on the status of groundfish stocks of mutual concern and coordinate, whenever possible, desirable programs of research. 2. Recommend the continuance and further development of research programs having potential value as scientific basis for future management of the groundfish fishery. 3. Review the scientific and technical aspects of existing or proposed management strategies and their component regulations relevant to conservation of stocks or other scientific aspects of groundfish conservation and management of mutual interest. 4. Transmit approved recommendations and appropriate documentation to appropriate sectors of Canadian and U.S. governments and encourage implementation of the recommendations. The TSC has exhibited considerable flexibility in reacting to the diverse problems of the dynamic groundfish fishery off western Canada and the United States. It has coordinated coastwide fishery statistics and research projects; created working groups to deal in depth with specific problems; scheduled workshops at which appropriate specialists met to jointly deal with specific problems and exchange data and information; and provided an on-going forum for exchange of data, procedures, and regulations. The TSC has identified problems associated with the utilization and management of groundfish resources of importance to both countries; often well in advance of public or agency awareness. The concerns expressed in 1962 by the TSC over the development of foreign fisheries and recommendations for stock assessments were significant. 1 TSC-coordinated Canada-U.S. research on Pacific Ocean perch provided the basis for negotiation of bilateral fishing agreements between the United States and Japan and the USSR. Furthermore, the continually updated information provided the basis for quotas imposed in 1977 by Canada and the United States when they both promulgated their 200-mile zones of extended jurisdiction. 2 B. Executive Summary The TSC met April 24-25, 2007 in Santa Cruz, California. The meeting was hosted by the National Marine Fisheries Service ― Southwest Fisheries Science Center. As is done each year, participants review previous year (2006) research achievements and projected current year (2007) research for each agency. There continues to be significant informal collaboration between U.S. and Canadian staff in the research and stock assessment of such species as yellowtail, canary, yelloweye rockfish, sablefish, and more extensively, Pacific whiting. Nevertheless, the TSC suggested that assessment and management of these and other groundfish populations that co-exist near national boundaries would benefit from closer collaboration. One means for achieving this would be to include staff from both countries is included at pre-assessment workshops. This would help to ensure that all relevant data are brought to bear on the assessment and also act to stimulate long term collaborative research. The TSC again noted the ongoing work of the Committee of Age Reading Experts (CARE) (http://care.psmfc.org/). TSC appreciates the work of CARE and recognizes that a direct link between the assessment biologist and the ageing lab is the most efficient means of requesting species ageing exchanges. The TSC noted that it will rely on fishery managers and stock assessment authors to interact directly with their ageing lab supervisors to communicate with CARE for ageing exchanges. The TSC noted the interagency Sablefish Workshop was held at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) in Seattle in February, 2007. The two-day meeting was a success. Agencies gave overviews of their fisheries and research, and Dan Kimura (AFSC) and Delsa Anderl (AFSC) gave a presentation on sablefish ageing. The Sablefish Workshop summary is available from Cleo Brylinsky (ADFG) or by contacting Chris Lunsford (AFSC) at the Auke Bay Lab. TSC also noted that organization is under way for the 2008 Western Groundfish Conference. It is scheduled for February 4-8, 2008 at the Santa Cruz Coast Hotel in Santa Cruz, CA. The Trawl Survey Working Group, created under the auspices of the TSC, met for the fifth consecutive year in February in Seattle. This Working Group has been successful in transferring technology and design features among the various survey groups operating in U.S. and Canadian waters. Mark Wilkins (AFSC) reported that during the 2007 meeting, three groups ― DFO, NWFSC and AFSC ― spent one day reviewing various survey topics. There exists the potential for a lot of bias when extending the bottom trawl data to untrawlable areas which is an issue for rockfishes of concern. The GIS Working Group: The second follow-up fall workshop did not get organized as hoped. It

  • 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.

INTRODUCTION* The viviparous surfperches (family Embiotocidae) are familiar to anglers and commercial fishermen alike, along the Pacific Coast of the United States. Until the present, 21 species have been recognized in the world. Two additional forms are herein described as new. Twenty species are found in California alone, although not all are restricted to that area. The family, because of its surf-loving nature, is characteristic of inshore areas, although by no means restricted to this niche. Two species are generally found in tidepools, while one, Zalembius rosaceus, occurs in fairly deep waters along the continental shelf. Because of their rather close relationships, the Embiotocidae have been a problem for the angler, the ecologist, the parasitologist, and others, to identify and even, occasionally, have proved to be difficult for the professional ichthy- ologist to determine. An attempt has been made in this revision, to remedy this situation by including full descrip- tions based on populations, rather than on individual specimens, and by including a key which, it is hoped, will prove adequate for juvenile specimens, as well as for adults.

  • Localized Depletion of Three Alaska Rockfish Species Dana Hanselman NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska
    Biology, Assessment, and Management of North Pacific Rockfishes 493 Alaska Sea Grant College Program • AK-SG-07-01, 2007 Localized Depletion of Three Alaska Rockfish Species Dana Hanselman NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska Paul Spencer NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Resource Ecology and Fisheries Management (REFM) Division, Seattle, Washington Kalei Shotwell NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska Rebecca Reuter NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, REFM Division, Seattle, Washington Abstract The distributions of some rockfish species in Alaska are clustered. Their distribution and relatively sedentary movement patterns could make localized depletion of rockfish an ecological or conservation concern. Alaska rockfish have varying and little-known genetic stock structures. Rockfish fishing seasons are short and intense and usually confined to small areas. If allowable catches are set for large management areas, the genetic, age, and size structures of the population could change if the majority of catch is harvested from small concentrated areas. In this study, we analyzed data collected by the North Pacific Observer Program from 1991 to 2004 to assess localized depletion of Pacific ocean perch (Sebastes alutus), northern rockfish S.( polyspinis), and dusky rockfish (S. variabilis). The data were divided into blocks with areas of approxi- mately 10,000 km2 and 5,000 km2 of consistent, intense fishing. We used two different block sizes to consider the size for which localized deple- tion could be detected. For each year, the Leslie depletion estimator was used to determine whether catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) values in each 494 Hanselman et al.—Three Alaska Rockfish Species block declined as a function of cumulative catch.
