Book Economic Impact of the Commercial Fisheries on Local County Economies from Catch in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary 2010  2011 and 2012

Download or read book Economic Impact of the Commercial Fisheries on Local County Economies from Catch in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary 2010 2011 and 2012 written by Vernon R. Leeworthy and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report estimates the economic impact of commercial fishing within the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary (MBNMS) according to the California Ocean Fish Harvester Economic Model. The methodology applies county multipliers to estimates of harvest revenue from the MBNMS in order to calculate output, income, value added and employment. This report also describes a profile of the commercial fish industry in the MBNMS. In addition, this report explores special issues related to trends in trawl catch. Special issues represent specific requests from sanctuary management for queries of the data. This report estimates the economic impact of commercial fishing within the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary (MBNMS) according to the California Ocean Fish Harvester Economic Model (COFHE). This report also describes a profile of the commercial fish industry in the MBNMS. In addition, this report explores special issues related to trends in trawl fishing. The three-year average for 2010 to 2012 finds that landings of catch from CBNMS generated $25,962,774 in harvest revenue, $42,028,137 in output, $28,633,164 in value added, $25,942,900 in total income and 843 full and parttime jobs across 12 counties. During the study period harvest revenue demonstrated an overall increase, ranging from $24,299,169 in 2010 to $29,644,153 in 2012. The top five species/species groups caught in MBNMS were Market Squid, Dungeness crab, Salmon, Coastal Pelagics, and Spot Prawn. These top five species/species groups accounted for over 91% of MBNMS landings in 2012. In 2012, the gear types associated with highest percent of total value include “Pots & Traps,” “Other Seine – Dip Net,” “Purse Seine,” and “Troll.” The top four ports where catch from MBNMS was landed are Princeton-Half Moon, Moss Landing, Monterey and Santa Cruz. All four ports were highly dependent on the sanctuary; each had over 90% of their total port landings value come from the sanctuary. Monterey and Santa Cruz each had over 95% of their port landings value from the sanctuary. Moss Landing was the least dependent, with 91.85% of its value coming from the sanctuary. Monterey was the most dependent, with 96.59% of its value coming from the sanctuary.

Download or read book The Great Gulf written by David Dobbs and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2000-10 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For hundreds of years, the New England cod fishery was one of the most productive in the world, with higher average annual landings than any comparable ocean area. But in the late 1980s, fish catches dropped precipitously, as the cod, flounder, and other species that had long dominated the region seemed to lose their ability to recover from the massive annual harvests. Even today, with fishing sharply restricted, populations have not recovered. Largely overlooked in this disaster is the intriguing human and scientific puzzle that lies at its heart: an anguished, seemingly inexplicable conflict between government scientists and fishermen over how fish populations are assessed, which has led to bitter disputes and has crippled efforts to agree on catch restrictions. In The Great Gulf, author David Dobbs offers a fascinating and compelling look at both sides of the conflict. With great immediacy, he describes the history of the fisheries science in this most studied of oceans, and takes the reader on a series of forays over the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank on both fishing boats and research vessels. He introduces us to the challenges facing John Galbraith, Linda Despres, and Jay Burnett, passionate and dedicated scientists with the National Marine Fisheries Service who spend countless hours working to determine how many fish there really are, and to the dilemma of Dave Goethel, a whipsmart, conscientious fisherman with 20 years's experience who struggles to understand the complex world he works in while maintaining his livelihood in an age of increasing regulation. Dobbs paints the New England fishery problem in its full human and natural complexity, vividly portraying the vitality of an uncontrollable, ultimately unknowable sea and its strange, frightening, and beautiful creatures on the one hand, and on the other, the smart, irrepressible, unpredictable people who work there with great joy and humor, refusing to surrender to the many reasons for despair or cynicism. For anyone who read Cod or The Perfect Storm, this book offers the next chapter of the story -- how today's fishers and fisheries scientists are grappling with the collapse of this fishery and trying to chart, amid uncertain waters, a course towards its restoration.

Book Effects of Trawling and Dredging on Seafloor Habitat

Download or read book Effects of Trawling and Dredging on Seafloor Habitat written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-08-09 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concerns over the potential ecological effects of fishing have increased with the expansion of fisheries throughout the marine waters of the United States. Effects of Trawling and Dredging on Seafloor Habitat describes how assessment of fishing impacts depends on gear type, number and location of bottom tows, and the physical and biological characteristics of seafloor habitats. Many experimental studies have documented acute, gear-specific effects of trawling and dredging on various types of habitat. These studies indicate that low mobility, long-lived species are more vulnerable to towed fishing gear than short-lived species in areas where the seabed is often disturbed by natural phenomena. Trawling and dredging may also change the composition and productivity of fish communities dependent on seafloor habitats for food and refuge. The scale of these impacts depends on the level of fishing effort. This volume presents color maps of fishing effort for all regions with significant bottom trawl or dredge fisheries-the first time that such data has been assembled and analyzed for the entire nation.
