Download or read book Alaska Herring History written by James Mackovjak and published by University of Alaska Press. This book was released on 2022-07-18 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alaska Herring History is a thoroughly researched, well-documented, and comprehensive chronicle of Alaska’s herring fisheries. Author James Mackovjak describes the evolution of these fisheries from the late nineteenth century to the present, including harvest, processing, markets, and sustained-yield management considerations. The book is divided into three parts based on the purposes for which herring have been harvested. Part I is a history of the reduction (fertilizer/fish meal/fish oil) and cured (salted) herring industries and the bait-herring fisheries; part II is a history of the roe-herring fisheries in Southeast Alaska, Prince William Sound, Kodiak Island, lower Cook Inlet, Togiak, and Norton Sound; and part III is a history of the herring spawn-on-kelp industry. Historical and contemporary photos and illustrations—as well as graphs and charts that help summarize the development and, in some cases, the demise of the fisheries—augment this detailed look at the evolution of Alaska's herring fisheries. Balancing scientific details, historical facts, and personal anecdotes from experts in the field, Alaska Herring History will be of interest to historians, social scientists, biologists, and fishery managers and makes an important contribution to Alaska fisheries literature.
Download or read book The Subsistence Harvest of Pacific Herring Spawn in Sitka Sound Alaska 2021 written by Lauren A. Sill and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subsistence fishery for the spawn of Pacific herring Clupea pallasii in Sitka Sound was historically, and remains, important to Alaska residents. Alaska Department of Fish and Game Division of Subsistence research on the contemporary subsistence fishery reveals that harvesting herring spawn is a specialized activity in which a relatively small number of Southeast Alaska residents harvest and distribute herring spawn widely. Annual subsistence harvest monitoring surveys began in 2002 in response to concerns from subsistence harvesters that the commercial sac roe herring fishery was negatively affecting subsistence harvesting success. This report presents the results of the 20th annual harvest survey conducted in Sitka and neighboring communities in 2021. The survey generated data used to calculate estimates of the subsistence harvest of herring spawn on various substrates, including hemlock branches, kelp, and other seaweed in Sitka Sound. The most recent 10-year average annual harvest (2011–2020) was 78,846 pounds. In 2021, an estimated total of 46,950 pounds of herring spawn was harvested; this level of harvest was more than double the estimated harvest of 2020 but still ranked among the lowest estimated harvests over the course of the project. Approximately 92% of the harvest was shared with other households within Sitka or in other communities in the state and beyond.
Download or read book Herring and People of the North Pacific written by Thomas F. Thornton and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2021-01-31 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herring are vital to the productivity and health of marine systems, and socio-ecologically Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii) is one of the most important fish species in the Northern Hemisphere. Human dependence on herring has evolved for millennia through interactions with key spawning areas—but humans have also significantly impacted the species’ distribution and abundance. Combining ethnological, historical, archaeological, and political perspectives with comparative reference to other North Pacific cultures, Herring and People of the North Pacific traces fishery development in Southeast Alaska from precontact Indigenous relationships with herring to postcontact focus on herring products. Revealing new findings about current herring stocks as well as the fish’s significance to the conservation of intraspecies biodiversity, the book explores the role of traditional local knowledge, in combination with archeological, historical, and biological data, in both understanding marine ecology and restoring herring to their former abundance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subsistence fishery for the spawn of Pacific herring Clupea pallasii in Sitka Sound was historically, and remains, important to Alaska residents. Harvesting herring spawn is a specialized subsistence activity in which a relatively small number of Southeast Alaska residents harvest and distribute herring spawn widely throughout the state and beyond to relatives and other social relations. Annual subsistence harvest monitoring surveys began in 2002 in response to concerns from subsistence harvesters that the commercial sac roe herring fishery was negatively affecting subsistence harvesting success. This report presents the results of the 21st annual harvest survey conducted with households that harvest subsistence herring eggs in Sitka Sound. The survey generated data used to calculate estimates of the subsistence harvest of herring spawn on various substrates, including hemlock branches, kelp, and other seaweed in Sitka Sound. The most recent 10-year average (2012–2021) estimated annual harvest was 75,197 pounds. In 2022, an estimated total of 135,231 pounds of herring spawn was harvested; this level of harvest was nearly three times the estimated harvest of 2021 and is the largest estimated harvest since 2014. A combination of factors, including effort, the location of spawning activity, the quality of spawn deposition, and opportunity to fulfill latent need for herring spawn, contributed to the higher estimated harvest. Approximately 96% of the harvest was shared with other households within Sitka or in other communities in the state and beyond.
