6. 7 FISHERIES AND FISHERIES OCEANOGRAPHY Introduction • multibillion dollar industry • • • – – • 20% animal protein consumption by human animal feeds for domestic live stock and poultry fish oils for paints and drugs pet foods and some food additives high-quality protein fisheries managements; • not always been successful in maintaining fish yields and conserving stocks Fisheries oceanography – Concerns the search for knowledge about the natural regulation of fish populations and seeks to apply this information to fisheries management.

World fish catch and fisheries management herring, anchovies, sardines, cod, and mackerel • Table 6. 2 Principal species of fish • • Peruvian anchoveta; Alaska pollock; Chilean jack mackerel; (Silver carp); Japanese pilchard; Capelin; South American pilchard; Atlantic herring; Skipjack tuna; (Grass carp) Table 6. 3 Principal fishing nations • China; Peru; Japan; Chile; USA; Russia; Indonesia; Thailand; Korea; Norway; Philippines • • 86 Mt (1989) – 84 Mt (1993) 27 Mt by-catch: unwanted marine species caught incidentally • • the management of world’s fishing industry oceanographic topics

• the management of world’s fishing industry • • • biological and ecological knowledge economic considerations competition between nations labor unions public marketing strategies (economic and political problems) • oceanographic topics • for comparative abundance of fish species • for fluctuations in fish populations



6. 7 FISHERIES AND FISHERIES OCEANOGRAPHY 1. World fish catch and fisheries management stock/recruitment theories • • population dynamics of fish stocks ‘stock’ – population numbers of adult fish ‘recruitment’ – the numbers of juvenile fish entering the adult population reproduction; survival; productivity of fish population • • • changes in the physical environment of the fish changes in biological components within the community the recruitment of new fish stock • a function of the numbers of eggs produced • • the size of the adult population and survival subsequent survival of young


• could be controlled by manipulating fishing pressure • regulating the number of boats; the size of nets; the total allowable catch • not been successful in managing fish stock, or making long-term predictions • fundamental questions about fish ecology • plankton ecology • changes in the physical environment





6. 7 FISHERIES AND FISHERIES OCEANOGRAPHY 2. FLUCTUATION IN THE ABUNDANCE OF FISH STOCKS long-term changes in the oceanic climate • Russell cycle (Fig. 6. 9) • The western English Channel Ø Ø Ø • • • Herring – 1930, warm temperature, decreased nutrients pilchard – 1940, 50 s mackerel – 1960, cool temperature, increased nutrients Sagitta elegans – cool Sagitta setosa – warm A natural cycle caused by climate change The changes in fish species are independent of fishing activity! Peruvian anchovy catch (Fig. 6. 10)






• Peruvian anchovy catch (Fig. 6. 10) • Coastal upwelling; high productivity; short food chain • Seabirds – guano birds • 9 -10 Mt (MSY) : 1 Mt (1958) -> 13 Mt (1970) • collapsed in the 1970 s • the effect of El Niño events





6. 7 FISHERIES AND FISHERIES OCEANOGRAPHY 2. FLUCTUATION IN THE ABUNDANCE OF FISH STOCKS long-term changes in the oceanic climate • • El Niño - A warm, nutrient-poor surface current that flows over the cold coastal upwelling off the coast of Peru; 1957 -58; 1965; 1972 -73 Environmental changes may significantly affect both the yield of fish and the type of fish present in any area – Overfishing + natural environmental change – The role of the environment cannot be excluded fro fisheries theories – Oceanographic data – new management theories

6. 7 FISHERIES AND FISHERIES OCEANOGRAPHY 3. REGULATION OF RECRIUITMENT AND GROWTH IN FISH fecundity • fisheries management theories • • ecological understanding of the factors controlling the survival and recruitment of larval and juvenile fish into adult stocks; growth rates – size and survival Hypotheses to explain fluctuations in adult abundance due to differences in the recruitment and growth of young fish ① starvation hypothesis (Fig. 6. 12) ② predation hypothesis (Fig. 6. 13) ③ advection hypothesis (Fig. 6. 14) ④ growth hypothesis (Fig. 6. 11) + fish disease

수산해양학의 역사 Hjort was a dominant force in fisheries science and management for more than three decades. His observations on fluctuations in fish stock abundances and hypotheses on causes have been enduring. They have guided much of the research on recruitment variability for decades. Hjort (1914, 1926) • Failure by larvae to find sufficient or adequate prey at time of first feeding leads to year-class failure. • Aberrant drift by eggs and larvae away from nursery grounds leads to year-class failure 강수경 (2010)


① starvation hypothesis (Fig. 6. 12) critical phase: match and mismatch planktonic food ② predation hypothesis (Fig. 6. 13) grow fast enough ③ advection hypothesis (Fig. 6. 14) currents system ④ growth hypothesis (Fig. 6. 11) • • parameters affecting the rate of growth and the length (size) at maturity temperature; growth efficiency (the type of food consumed)

Too successful -> depletion SST & depth of thermocline Fish schools • • Location of particular types of fish • • • Feeding; reproduction; migration Temperature Inshore fixed-depth fisheries (Fig. 6. 15) The migration routes (Fig. 6. 16): diversion (%)

6. 8 MARICULTURE growing marine species in enclosures or impoundments mariculture - the cultivation of marine species • seaweeds. crustaceans, mollusks, fish • the transplantation of wild stocks into new areas • the trapping of a wild population in enclosures (without artificial food until harvesting) • intensive culture – feed, fertilizers, control environment, - predators, disease

• economical species: – lower trophic levels; feed on naturally available food – can produce high biomass in crowded conditions – example: mussel • higher trophic levels – artificial feed (cultivated or captured prey); larger, mobile, more space; – high costs, higher market value – example: salmon

6. 8 MARICULTURE

6. 8 MARICULTURE • ocean ranching – rear salmon eggs in hatcheries and then release the young salmon into the sea • monoculture and polyculture – uneaten food and fecal material – anoxic • • increasing demands for more protein for human consumption luxury foods

• • the selection of suitable sites disease control economic balance coastal pollution
