This book was released on 1984 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divers surveyed and sampled major 1982 herring spawns inStatistical Areas 3 to 5. Spawner biomass was estimated at 5700tonnes, which agreed closely with prespawning echosounderestimates, but was considerably lower than the 19,500 to 29,000tonnes estimated with population models. The low estimatedspawner biomass supports the decision to close the sac-roefishery in Chatham Sound from 1979 through 1983 and in PorcherIsland from 1982 through 1983.

This book was released on 1984 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divers surveyed and sampled herring spawns in Barkley Sound onthe west coast of Vancouver Island, B.C. in 1982 to determine thedistribution of spawn and to estimate the biomass of herring andcompare the results to other estimates. Although spawn wasdeposited to 14 m below Chart Datum, only 10% of spawn was lowerthan 4 m below Chart Datum. The diving survey estimated 23,500tonnes of herring in Barkley Sound, of which 14,300 tonnesspawned in a first wave, 5500 tonnes spawned in a second wave, and 3600 tonnes were caught in fisheries between the two waves. Estimates from population models ranged from 7352 to 25,838tonnes, depending on which assumptions were used. Generally theyunderestimated stocks, probably because Fishery Officer spawnsurvey data, used in all the models, considerably underestimatedthe area of spawn. Hydroacoustic estimates of biomass wereslightly lower and echosounder estimates missed completely thebuild-up of stocks prior to spawning.

Book excerpt: Herring abundance in the Central Coast district of British Columbia has recently shown signs of decline. A first attempt to survey spawn in the District (with divers) was made in 1986 to accurately assess the status of the spawning stocks. Herring spawns were surveyed independently with traditional surface survey techniques and by scuba divers. Visual observations were made from a boat and grapples were used to determine the presence of and obtain samples of spawn. From these observations the length and width of spawn and the layers of eggs were estimated. Divers took samples of vegetation with eggs attached, they were weighed, and egg counts were obtained. Eggs on the bottom substrate were calculated from diver estimates of the number of egg layers and percent of the bottom covered by vegetation and then added to eggs on the vegetation.

Book excerpt: Diving surveys of spawn estimated herring stocks on the westcoast of Vancouver Island, between Esperanza Inlet and BarkleySound, at 19,710 tonnes in 1984. In two of the three StatisticalAreas, Esperanza Inlet and Barkley Sound, stocks are smaller thancatches in previous years. Stocks have declined throughout thestudy area in recent years and appear to be at a low level. Spawn was distributed shallow in Esperanza Inlet and ClayoquotSound and deep in Barkley Sound.

Book excerpt: Diving surveys were conducted for 172 km of herring spawn with complete coverage of the North Coast Division, nearly complete coverage for the Strait of Georgia Division, and partial coverage for the Queen Charlotte Islands, Central Coast, and West Coast of Vancouver Island divisions. The survey was combined with Fishery Officer collected spawn data to estimate egg deposition.

Book excerpt: The abundance of herring spawning in Georgia and Johnstone straits declined over several years to a recent low in 1984. Herring spawns in portions of Georgia Strait were surveyed by divers in 1976 and 1983, but never has there been an attempt by divers to survey all the spawns. Concern about the low levels of herring spawning stocks in Georgia and Johnstone straits in recent years and the potential effects of even moderate herring roe fisheries in these areas on the recovery of these stocks prompted the Department to conduct an intensive diving survey of this area in 1985. The results are summarized in this report.
