The 'stock concept' in fisheries science conforms to theoretical assumptions of stock assessment models, including negligible movement across boundaries, relatively homogeneous vital rates, and extensive mixing within areas. Best practices for representing population structure involve 1) interdisciplinary identification delineate spatially discrete populations or more complex structure; 2) boundaries that are aligned with the most plausible 3) spatially-explicit sampling, fleet spatial models account heterogeneity, fishing patterns, areas; 4) routine composition sampling analysis overlapping populations; 5) simulation testing performance assessments mis-specified uncertain structure. Practical units do not accurately represent may provide sufficient information achieve fishery management objectives, so practical constraints should be addressed through iterative advances identification, delineation stocks meet unit-stock assumptions, modeling.

Abstract Frequent fishing activities are causing overfishing, destroying the habitat of marine life, and threatening global biodiversity. Understanding dynamics their drivers is crucial for designing implementing effective ocean management. The in open sea reported to be characterized by high spatial variability local waters; however, it still unclear whether random or regulated oceanographic variations. Mesoscale eddies ubiquitous swirling currents that dominate locally biogeochemical processes. Previous case studies presented an ongoing debate regarding how exert impacts on trophic organisms, which imposes limitations understanding based bottom‐top control hypothesis from fish activities. By combining deep learning oceanic eddy atlases satellite monitoring, we showed variations were closely related mesoscale midlatitude ocean, confirming primarily targeting tuna, aggregated (repelled from) anticyclonic (cyclonic) cores. This eddy‐fishing activity relationship was opposite satellite‐observed primary production but corresponded well with temperature oxygen content deeper water. integrating existing evidence, attribute eddy‐related a reasonable warm oxygen‐rich water relieves thermal anoxic constraints diving predation tuna while aggravated cold oxygen‐poor cyclonic eddies.

Fishers often target multiple species. More diverse harvest portfolios may reduce income risk, increasing resilience to climate-driven changes in species’ spatial distributions and availability. Moreover, different effects can be observed across vessels response the same shocks stressors, as fishers are heterogeneous. Evaluation of climate risk vessel groups within a particular fishery requires consideration heterogeneous impacts on availability species how such impact substitution behavior. Here we analyze historical forage distribution closure Pacific sardine affected landings per three coastal pelagic (CPS): ( Sardinops sagax), market squid Doryteuthis opalescens), northern anchovy Engraulis mordax) targeted by U.S. West Coast CPS fleet from 2000 2020. Using cluster analysis, grouped into segments estimated responses segment port area. Our results show that considering heterogeneity is essential development equitable effective adaptation policies designed mitigate these fisheries.

As global change accelerates, natural resource-dependent communities must respond and adapt. Small-scale fisheries, essential for coastal livelihoods food security, are considered among the most vulnerable of these coupled social-ecological systems. While previous studies have examined vulnerability adaptation in fisheries at individual, household, community level, scales organization inconsistent with many legal regulatory frameworks that function practice to mediate behavior, decision-making, adaptation. Here, we use cooperative- privately-owned fishing enterprises Northwest Mexico as a case study examine how different forms marine self-governance experience climate shocks. Leveraging network methods changes participation during recent period pronounced regional oceanographic change, our analysis suggests that: 1) SSF (and strategies harvest portfolios which they associated) help determine impacts response environmental change; 2) there may be important trade-offs between short-term responses prevent or mitigate lost revenue long-term vulnerability.

Abstract The management and conservation of tuna other transboundary marine species have to date been limited by an incomplete understanding the oceanographic, ecological socioeconomic factors mediating fishery overlap interactions, how these vary across expansive, open ocean habitats.

Here, we use vessel tracking data, archival tags, observer records, machine learning examine inter‐ intra‐annual variability (2013–2020) five longline fishing fleets with North Pacific albacore ( Thunnus alalunga , Scombridae). Although progressive declines catch biomass observed over past several decades, is one only stocks primarily targeted longlines not currently listed as overfished or experiencing overfishing. We find that varies significantly time space mediated (1) differences habitat preferences between juvenile adult albacore; (2) variation oceanographic features known aggregate biomass; (3) different spatial niches shallow‐set deep‐set gear. These findings may significant implications for stock assessment this systems, particularly reliance on fishery‐dependent data index abundance.

Abstract The abundance of fishery resources significantly impacts the ratio fishing effort to harvest. However, traditional statistics catches or commonly used catch per unit (CPUE) metrics cannot accurately capture complexity resource in ocean. To address this issue, we propose here a novel approach that integrates actual from vessel logs with duration obtained through automatic identification system (AIS) positioning. This combined analysis eliminates confounding factors and introduces metric called “catch efficiency (CE)” evaluate operations more accurately, thereby reflecting reasonable way. In study, focus on CE squid Oyashio Extension region Northwestern Pacific. Our reveals significant temporal spatial variations CE, manifesting both intensity distribution patterns. Moreover, our findings establish close relationship between background water mass distribution, chlorophyll‐a concentration, micronekton biomass. implies can be inferred by considering varying environmental within area.
