Book excerpt: Case studies of the ramifications of predator management for prey population dynamics can play a valuable role in developing ecosystem fisheries management. My dissertation focuses on the predator-prey interaction between Striped Bass (Morone saxatilis), an abundant predatory finfish, and an imperiled prey population of anadromous Blueback Herring (Alosa aestivalis). Annual returns of Blueback Herring to the Holyoke Dam on the Connecticut River in southern New England collapsed during the 1980-2000s, coincident with Striped Bass recovery. I studied the abundance and demography of both species in the Connecticut River during 2005-08, measured predation levels, and surveyed the in-river recreational Striped Bass fishery. Herring in 2005-08 were on average younger, smaller, and less likely to be repeat spawners than during the 1960s. These findings suggest elevated mortality operating on adult herring, consistent with other contemporary studies of river herring runs. I estimated that approximately 125,000 Striped Bass were present in the upper 64 km of the river stretch below the Holyoke Dam in spring 2008, and that this predator contingent was capable of consuming 200,000-800,000 adult herring annually. I also estimated that increased in-river recreational Striped Bass harvests might reduce annual predatory losses by 4-10%. I constructed a stage-structured model of the Blueback Herring population spawning above the Holyoke Dam, and used it to a) assess whether Striped Bass predation could explain the collapse of the herring run to the Holyoke Dam, and b) whether reductions in adult herring mortality effected through increased Striped Bass harvest could substantially improve recovery prospects. Model simulations suggested that Striped Bass predation made a substantial contribution to the collapse of the Holyoke herring run: over 50% of model simulations predicted a run crash, and metrics of population resilience and reproductive potential were greatly reduced in the presence of Striped Bass predation. Increased in-river harvests of Striped Bass offer potential to conserve Blueback Herring under some scenarios; however, the requisite harvest levels appear improbable given the observed intensity of the fishery. This study will inform future efforts to conserve river herring and manage Striped Bass populations, and illustrates the trade-offs inherent to ecosystem-based management.

Download or read book Sustaining Marine Fisheries written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-03-19 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluctuations and declines in marine fish populations have caused growing concern among marine scientists, fisheries managers, commercial and recreational fishers, and the public. Sustaining Marine Fisheries explores the nature of marine ecosystems and the complex interacting factors that shape their productivity. The book documents the condition of marine fisheries today, highlighting species and geographic areas that are under particular stress. Challenges to achieving sustainability are discussed, and shortcomings of existing fisheries management and regulation are examined. The volume calls for fisheries management to adopt a broader ecosystem perspective that encompasses all relevant environmental and human influences. Sustaining Marine Fisheries offers new approaches to building workable fisheries management institutions, improving scientific data, and developing management tools. The book recommends ways to change current practices that encourage overexploitation of fish resources. It will be of special interest to marine policymakers and ecologists, fisheries regulators and managers, fisheries scientists and marine ecologists, fishers, and concerned individuals.

This book was released on 2011-02-03 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Showing how big-picture patterns can help overcome the failures of conventional management, this book is ideal for students, researchers and professionals involved with marine fisheries. It explores not only the current practice of the 'ecosystem approach' to fisheries management but also its critical importance to even larger perspectives. The first section gives a valuable overview of how more and more of the complexity of real-world systems is being recognized and involved in the management of fisheries around the world. The second section then demonstrates how important aspects of real-world systems, involving population dynamics, evolution and behavior, remain to be taken into account completely. This section also shows how we must change the way we think about our involvement in, and the complexity of, marine ecosystems. The final chapters consider how, with the use of carefully chosen macroecological patterns, we can take important steps towards more holistic management of marine fisheries.
