Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ocean harvests have plateaued worldwide and many important commercial stocks have been depleted. This has caused great concern among scientists, fishery managers, the fishing community, and the public. This book evaluates the major models used for estimating the size and structure of marine fish populations (stock assessments) and changes in populations over time. It demonstrates how problems that may occur in fisheries dataâ€"for example underreporting or changes in the likelihood that fish can be caught with a given type of gearâ€"can seriously degrade the quality of stock assessments. The volume makes recommendations for means to improve stock assessments and their use in fishery management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A team composed of staff members representing the three management regions, Research and Technical Services, Habitat, and Headquarters of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Sport Fish Division (SFD) met during October 2004 through June 2005 to review and make recommendations for updating the Statewide Harvest Survey (SWHS) program. The team developed and prioritized a list of information needs from data that could be reasonably collected from a statewide survey of recreational anglers in Alaska. Information needs were then categorized by the type of survey necessary to meet the need, relative to the current Statewide Harvest Survey program. A purpose statement for the SWHS program was developed as well as a list of short and long term recommendations for changes to the program to meet identified needs. The existing SWHS continues to meet many of the highest priority needs of the SFD, but does not address many current needs that were not envisioned when the current SWHS was first implemented in 1977. For example, the need for daily and annual bag limit analyses on a statewide or regional basis is not adequately met by the current SWHS. Moreover, the current SWHS does not address the need to link angler demographics, attitudes, and behavior with angler effort and harvest. While many improvements can be made to the current SWHS program to fully meet additional information needs, significant changes to the survey design, survey instrument, and methods of survey delivery will not be possible without improvements to sport fish licensing data capture. Any future implementation of a statewide survey of anglers will have to address the issues of angler recall; reducing complexity and length of the survey instrument(s); improving response rate; improving fish species identification; improving site selection; and, modernizing the survey delivery, data collection, and data management systems.

Download or read book The Fisheries Co management Experience written by Douglas Clyde Wilson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For two decades the idea of governments and fishers working together to manage fisheries has been advocated, questioned, disparaged and, most importantly, attempted in fisheries from North and South America through Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania. This book is the first time these experiences have been pulled together in a single volume, summarized and explained. The Fisheries Co-management Experience begins with a review of the intellectual foundations of the co-management idea from several professional perspectives. Next, fisheries researchers from six global regions describe what has been happening on the ground in their area. Finally, the volume offers a set of reflections by some of the best authors in the field. The end result describes both the state-of-the-art and emerging issues for one of the most important trends in natural resources management.
Download or read book Data and Management Strategies for Recreational Fisheries with Annual Catch Limits written by National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine and published by . This book was released on 2022-04-21 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marine recreational fishing is a popular activity enjoyed by more than 9 million Americans annually and is a driver of the American ocean-or blue-economy. To ensure that fish populations are not overexploited, the NOAA Fisheries' Marine Recreational Information Program (MRIP) monitors recreational catch through a variety of in-person, telephone, mail-in, and other surveys. NOAA Fisheries' management of recreational catch also must take into account annual catch limits (ACLs) established to prevent overfishing for all managed species in federal waters. While MRIP has worked to improve recreational catch surveys over the past decade, the surveys were never designed to meet the demands of in-season management of ACLs. In some cases, estimates of harvest have triggered accountability measures such as early season closures and reductions in future recreational ACLs, which have been a source of contention with the recreational fishing community. This report presents approaches for optimizing MRIP data and complementary data for in-season management and considers alternatives for managing recreational fisheries with ACLs to better serve both social and economic management objectives.
