This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1970's the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was made to manage our oceanic and atmospheric resources. The Alaska Fisheries Science Center is the research branch for marine life and coastal oceans off parts of the U.S. west coast and Alaska. This includes the Eastern Bering Sea where some the worlds most important commercial fishing takes place. Their mission is to develop and maintain scientific exploration to help understand and manage that region's environment. Over the years there have been many reports published which discuss their findings; this is one of them.
Download or read book The Bering Sea Ecosystem written by Committee on the Bering Sea Ecosystem and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-04-22 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bering Sea, which lies between the United States and Russia, is one of the most productive ecosystems in the world and has prolific fishing grounds. Yet there have been significant unexplained population fluctuations in marine mammals and birds in the region. The book examines the Bering Sea ecosystem's dynamics and the relationship between man and the ecosystem, in order to identify potential reasons for the population fluctuations as well as identify ways the Sea's living resources can be better managed by government.

Download or read book Billion Dollar Fish written by Kevin M. Bailey and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Alaska pollock is everywhere. If you're eating fish but you don't know what kind it is, it's almost certainly pollock. Prized for its generic fish taste, pollock masquerades as crab meat in california rolls and seafood salads, and it feeds millions as fish sticks in school cafeterias and Filet-O-Fish sandwiches at McDonald's. That ubiquity has made pollock the most lucrative fish harvest in America--the fishery in the United States alone has an annual value of over one billion dollars. But even as the money rolls in, pollock is in trouble: in the last few years, the pollock population has declined by more than half, and some scientists are predicting the fishery's eventual collapse. Crucial to understanding the pollock fishery, he shows, is recognizing what aspects of its natural history make pollock so very desirable to fish, while at the same time making it resilient, yet highly vulnerable to overfishing. Bailey delves into the science, politics, and economics surrounding Alaska pollock in the Bering Sea, detailing the development of the fishery, the various political machinations that have led to its current management, and, perhaps most important, its impending demise. He approaches his subject from multiple angles, bringing in the perspectives of fishermen, politicians, environmentalists, and biologists, and drawing on revealing interviews with players who range from Greenpeace activists to fishing industry lawyers."--Amazon.
Download or read book Decline of the Steller Sea Lion in Alaskan Waters written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-05-04 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For an unknown reason, the Steller sea lion population in Alaska has declined by 80% over the past three decades. In 2001, the National Research Council began a study to assess the many hypotheses proposed to explain the sea lion decline including insufficient food due to fishing or the late 1970s climate/regime shift, a disease epidemic, pollution, illegal shooting, subsistence harvest, and predation by killer whales or sharks. The report's analysis indicates that the population decline cannot be explained only by a decreased availability of food; hence other factors, such as predation and illegal shooting, deserve further study. The report recommends a management strategy that could help determine the impact of fisheries on sea lion survival-establishing open and closed fishing areas around sea lion rookeries. This strategy would allow researchers to study sea lions in relatively controlled, contrasting environments. Experimental area closures will help fill some short-term data gaps, but long-term monitoring will be required to understand why sea lions are at a fraction of their former abundance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seafood byproducts industry will find this book a valuable reference for years to come. The information presented at the 2nd International Seafood Byproduct Conference (Anchorage, Alaska, 2002) promises to play an important role in fish byproduct utilization and fish waste disposal issues, critical to the survivability and sustainability of fishing industries. Topics addressed in 45 contributions, representing 18 countries, include ¥Increased human consumption of fish oils and food supplements derived from seafoods, due to advances in medical sciences.¥New secondary products for human, animal, and industrial uses from seafood processing byproducts.¥New methods that improve seafood byproduct safety and processing. ¥Technological advances that have changed processing methods and increased the percentage of fish biomass used as human food.
