Fish Population Assessment How many fish do we have?
Fish Population Assessment w Estimating population size w 1) Plot method w 2) Mark and recapture (Peterson method) w 3) Mark and recapture (Schnabel method) w 4) Change in ratio or dichotomy method w 5) Removal sampling (Zippin method)
Plot Method Total population area Size of the plot Average number of fish per plot Population estimate
Plot Method Estimated Variance Number of fish counted in ith plot Number of plots used
Plot Method 95% confidence interval for s-1 df, p=0. 05
Plot Method Example w Pond area = 100 m 2 w Size of plot = 1 m 2 w Average number of fish per plot = 1. 5
Mark and Recapture Peterson Method (single) Bailey modification Number of fish initially marked & released Number of fish collected/examined in 2 nd period Number of recaptures found in C
Mark and Recapture Variance
Mark and Recapture 95% confidence interval
Mark and Recapture Example M = 550 C = 500 R = 157
Mark and Recapture Example M = 550 C = 500 R = 157
Mark and Recapture Schnabel Method Multiple episodes of mark and recapture CM = total captures X marked fish available for recapture R = recaptures of marked fish
Schnabel Method Variance & 95% C. I. Then invert for 95% C. I. for N
Schnabel Method example p. 137 (2 nd ed. ) Period R Unmarked Total C 150 M CM 1 0 0 0 2 22 203 225 150 33, 750 3 26 86 112 353 39, 536 …. …. 439 …. Total 254 457, 208
Schnabel Method example p. 137 (2 nd ed. ) 95% C. I. = 1, 602 - 2, 049
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method Requirements: w 1) two recognizable classes w Species w Sexes w Adults vs. juveniles w Age classes w 2) different rates of exploitation
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method Two assumptions must be met: w 1) All population change is due to harvest w No mortality, recruitment, migration w 2) Figures for harvest must be reliable (need for GOOD data)
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method Two classes, X & Y Conducted by sport or commercial fisheries or artificial manipulation (selective removal) X/Y 0 Total harvest Zero X harvested per Y
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method w 1. Total harvest C (CX , CY) w 2. Sample size before harvest n 1 (X 1 , Y 1) w 3. Sample size after harvest n 2 (X 2 , Y 2)
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method Proportion of X in first sample Proportion of X in second sample Population estimate for X
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method Population estimate for X + Y Population estimate for Y
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method - Example w Trout (T) and suckers (S) w Sample before harvest: w n 1=90, T 1=30, S 1=60 w Sample after harvest: w n 2=58, T 2=14, S 2=44 w Harvest between samples: w 160 trout, 160 suckers
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method - Example Proportions of trout in two samples
Change in Ratio or Dichotomy Method - Example Trout estimate Trout and suckers combined Sucker estimate
Removal Sampling Zippin Method w w w w 3 -pass removal U 1=number of fish removed on 1 st pass U 2=number of fish removed on 2 nd pass U 3=number of fish removed on 3 rd pass M=sum of all removals (U 1+U 2+U 3) t=number of removal passes (3) C=weighted sum = (1 X U 1)+(2 X U 2)+(3 X U 3)
Removal Sampling Zippin Method Capture probability
Removal Sampling Zippin Method Population estimate
Removal Sampling Zippin Method - example Slimy sculpin in Garvin Brook t=3 U 1 = 250 U 2 = 125 U 3 = 65 M = 440 C = (1) 250 + (2) 125 + (3) 65 = 695
