Carrying capacity and survival strategy for the Pacific bluefin tuna, Thunnus orientalis, in the Western Pacific

The carrying capacity for the Pacific bluefin tuna at each life stage is estimated and its survival strategy is examined numerically, using a new method to define the hypothetical capacity, the standard population, and the search volumes that are necessary and are feasible for the tuna. The carrying capacity for the adult is estimated at 1–2 × 10⁶ individuals, which corresponds with 5–10% of the hypothetical capacity and is comparable with the maximum levels of the southern and the Atlantic bluefin tuna populations. It is hypothesized semiquantitatively that the migration at each life stage and the remarkable decrement of growth at 120 days and about 40 cm occur as an evolutionary response to population excess over the carrying capacity. It is also hypothesized semiquantitatively that the early larvae have minimal food available in the Subtropical Water and develop the predatory morphology, high growth rate, and high mobility, however, at the expense of a high mortality as an evolutionary response to the tuna spawning in the Subtropical Water. This method may be an available tool to not only investigate the carrying capacity and survival strategy of a specific fish species, but also predict when and in how much abundance the fish species occurs in a specific area of its habitat.     

越南开发南海金枪鱼资源的历史和趋势

近十年来,越南将南海的金枪鱼资源作为其＂外向型＂渔业的重要支撑,不断增加捕捞强度,产量逐年升高。本文总结了越南发展南海金枪鱼渔业的过程,分析了南海金枪鱼资源的开发趋势。越南现代化的金枪鱼捕捞技术主要来自日本,使用的渔具主要有金枪鱼延绳钓、手钓、刺网和小型围网,捕捞的种类主要为鲣鱼、黄鳍金枪鱼和大眼金枪鱼,主要作业区域在西沙群岛南部海域和南沙群岛海域。越南2009年金枪鱼的产量已达到5.9×104t,计划2015年达到30×104t。根据越南海洋渔业研究所（RIMF）的评估,南海中西部的金枪鱼资源量为66~67×104t,可捕量23.3×104t,其中鲣鱼的可捕量21.6×104t,黄鳍金枪鱼和大眼金枪鱼的可捕量1.7×104t。随着全球金枪鱼捕捞配额的缩减和越南＂外向型＂渔业经济的发展,越南将继续加强对南海金枪鱼资源的开发。     

Effect of protein source and level on growth and performance of the captive freshwater prawn,Macrobrachium rosenbergii

Growth, feed conversion and survival were determined for juvenile Macrobrachium rosenbergii held in tanks under semi-controlled environmental conditions. Feeding trials incorporated water-stable diets at three levels of protein (15, 25 and 35%). The principal protein source combinations consisted either of soybean and tuna meal, or of soybean, tuna and shrimp meal. In a 244-day comparison of these diets, higher protein content produced larger prawns (P < 0.01), but differences between sources were not significant. No significant differences existed between feed conversion ratios (range 1.36–1.72) or percentage survival (range 90.3–93.6%). Trials of several other diets were also conducted, including soybean and Tilapia meal, and copra and Tilapia meal (25% protein level) as principal protein source combinations. After 167 days on these diets, growth was inferior to that obtained with soybean and tuna meal or soybean, tuna and shrimp meal combinations. No significant differences existed between feed conversion ratios or percentages of survival.For the 244 days, a control group of prawns received no formulated diet. Growth and survival in this group during the first 110 days suggested that naturally occurring algae contributed substantially to the prawns' nutrition.Mean prawn length after 244 days on the best diet (35% protein from soybean and tuna meal) was 73 mm, and growth rate was equivalent to that achieved under pilot pond conditions.

西北印度洋大眼金枪鱼渔场预报模型建立与模块开发

根据1990—2003年印度洋大眼金枪鱼延绳钓渔业数据和美国国家海洋和大气管理局提供的海表温度、叶绿素-a历史环境数据,应用环境因子叠加方法,构建了西印度洋大眼金枪鱼渔场预报模型,用于金枪鱼渔场预报。分析得出各月适宜海表温度、叶绿素-a浓度范围和历史高产区空间位置;导入实时海表温度、叶绿素-a等遥感栅格数据,分别提取适宜海表温度、适宜叶绿素-a浓度和历史高产区的空间栅格数据集,最后在空间上对3种栅格数据进行空间叠加并取交集。交集所指空间区域即为大眼金枪鱼潜在渔场位置。通过精度检验,表明该模型渔场预报精度为60.5%。并以VC++6.0工具为开发平台,对此模型进行了设计开发,实现了模块预报西北印度洋大眼金枪鱼渔场。     

Catch trend of bigeye tuna <Emphasis Type="Italic">Thunnus obesus</Emphasis> by purse seine using fish aggregating devices,by flag states and area of operation in tropical regions of the Western and Central Pacific Ocean

Seventeen members and cooperating non-members (CCMs) of the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC) were responsible for 86% of the total catch of bigeye tuna Thunnus obesus by purse seine fishing from 2012 to 2014. We categorize the CCMs into an eastern, western and “other” group based on their main fishing areas. We found significant differences in the bigeye tuna catch per fish aggregating device (FAD) between the eastern group and the western group. We also estimated that the eastern group achieved a higher catch of bigeye tuna because of their increased fishing effort using FAD in the eastern area where there is a higher catch per unit effort for FAD. The regression analysis found significant correlations between the annual catch of bigeye tuna and the number of FAD sets. The average catch of bigeye tuna per single FAD set, estimated from the slope of the regression line, was 7.1 t in the eastern area and 2.7 t in the western area. An impact and risk plot composed of the slope of the regression line and the catch of bigeye tuna by each individual CCM was developed to improve management measures. Appropriate measures for the sustainable use of tuna resources in the region are discussed.

Benefits,concerns, and solutions of fishing for tunas with drifting fish aggregation devices

Drifting fish aggregating devices (dFADs) are human-made floating objects widely used by tropical tuna purse seine (PS) fisheries to increase catch of target species. However, dFAD use has several negative impacts, including increased potential for overfishing, higher juvenile tuna catch, higher bycatch compared to other PS fishing modes, ghost-fishing, and generation of marine litter. Based on these impacts, some stakeholders, especially environmental non-governmental organizations and other competing fishing industries, suggest that dFADs should be completely banned. We list the pros and cons of dFAD fishing; address how to improve current management; and suggest solutions for the sustainability of dFAD fishing in the long term. A dFAD ban would lead to major changes in the availability and sourcing of tuna for human consumption and decrease the licensing revenue received by many developing states. Most importantly, we argue that tools exist today to manage for, reduce or eliminate most of the negative impacts of dFADs (e.g., bans on discards, limits on active dFADs, biodegradable non-entangling constructions, time-area deployment closures, recovery programs, and full data transparency, among others). Management decisions based on sound scientific reasoning are needed to address the legitimate concerns surrounding dFAD use and ensure the sustainability of both pelagic and coastal ecosystems and tropical tuna PS fisheries.     

Potential bycatch of seabirds and turtles in hook-and-line fisheries of the Itaipava Fleet, Brazil

The decline of populations of certain seabirds and sea turtles around the world is partly related to their incidental capture in large-scale fisheries. However, the impacts of small-scale fisheries on endangered seabirds and sea turtles, being carried out in many places around the world, have been largely neglected by scientists and governments. We monitored 178 fishing days and described a range of poorly known hook-and-line commercial fisheries carried out by the Itaipava fleet, southeastern Brazil, composed by 497 vessels and deploying hooks from 18°S to 35°S. Seven fisheries were defined: fast trolling for tuna and tuna-like species, slow trolling for Bigeye tuna, handlining, surface longline for Dolphinfish, pelagic longline for Swordfish, bottom dropline, and pole-and-line with live bait. We observed bycatch of 47 seabirds of six species and 45 turtles of four species. Capture rates were higher for the surface longline for Dolphinfish (0.15 birds/1000 hooks and 1.08 turtles/1000 hooks), slow trolling for Bigeye tuna (0.41 birds/day) and handlining targeting Yellowfin tuna (0.61 birds/day). Endangered Spectacled petrel (Procellaria conspicillata), Atlantic Yellow-nosed (Thalassarche chlororhynchos), and Black-browed (T. melanophris) albatrosses were the main seabirds caught. Immature Loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) and immature or adult Leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) were the main sea turtles affected by the surface longline for Dolphinfish. Monitoring the fleet and bycatch levels, development of mitigation measures, establishment of educational programs, government control over the fleet, and enforcement, are urgently required for the hook-and-line fisheries described in the present study.

北部湾鲔(Euthynnus affinis)的摄食习性及其随生长发育的变化

基于2008年9月-2009年9月在北部湾逐月采集的435尾鲔(Euthynnus affinis)生物学数据,对鲔生长、摄食习性及其随生长发育的变化进行了分析。结果显示,北部湾鲔属于广食性鱼类,主要摄食中上层小型鱼类,另外还包括底栖鱼类、甲壳类和头足类等。少鳞犀鳕(Bregmaceros rarisquamosus,45.50%)、青带小公鱼(Stolephorus zollingeri,11.81%)和长颌棱鳀(Theyssa setirostris,5.89%)为鲔优势饵料生物种类,并且其主要饵料生物种类随采样时间的不同而有所差异,如金色小沙丁鱼(Sardinella aurita,1月)、未能鉴定鱼类(4-7月)、长颌棱鳀(8月)、条鲾(Leignathus riviulatus,9月)、青带小公鱼(10月)、少鳞犀鳕(11–翌年3月)。体长小于340 mm的鲔个体随体长的增加其平均摄食饵料生物的个数与质量呈上升趋势;体长在341-520 mm范围内的鲔个体,随着体长的增加其平均摄食饵料生物的个数与质量总体上呈现下降趋势。鲔产卵主要集中在4-8月,根据雌性GSI(性腺成熟度指数)分析,具有两个产卵高峰期(6月、8月),产卵高峰期和中上层水温的升高有密切关系。鲔的摄食强度在性腺发育过程中波动较大,但在产卵期间,其摄食强度并未明显降低。     

Rheological,Physico-chemical,and Surface-Active Properties of Gelatin Extracted from Bigeye Tuna (Thunnus obesus) Skin Waste

ABSTRACT

In the present investigation, bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus) skin waste was utilized for the extraction of gelatin. Physico-chemical, rheological, and surface-active properties of the obtained gelatin were assessed. Proximate compositional analysis of tuna skin gelatin recorded high protein content of 88.6% and low levels of fat and ash contents. The isoelectric point (IEP) of tuna skin gelatin was around 6.24. Amino acid profiling recorded a glycine [31.7%] higher proportion, followed by imino acids (hydroxyproline + proline) [18.4%], and alanine [12.2%]. The electrophoretic pattern of purified gelatin exhibited three major bands (β, α1, and α2) with wider molecular weight distribution in the range of 200–120 kDa. The Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectra of gelatin also confirmed the bands corresponding to α helix, β sheet, and random coil structures. The rheological studies of tuna skin gelatin revealed Newtonian and shear thickening properties. The method of extraction and assessment of its characteristic properties could be useful in the field of formulation of functional foods, nutraceutical, and biomedical applications.

Predicting the occurrence of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) larvae in the northern Gulf of Mexico: building a classification model from archival data

Although bluefin tuna are found throughout the Atlantic Ocean, spawning in the western Atlantic has been recorded predominantly in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) in spring. Larval bluefin tuna abundances from the northern GOM are formulated into an index used to tune the adult stock assessment, and the variability of this index is currently high. This study investigated whether some of the variability in larval bluefin tuna abundances was related to environmental conditions, by defining associations between larval bluefin tuna catch locations, and a suite of environmental variables. We hypothesized that certain habitat types, as defined by environmental variables, would be more likely to contain bluefin tuna larvae. Favorable habitat for bluefin tuna larvae was defined using a classification tree approach. Habitat within the Loop Current was generally less favorable, as were warm‐core rings, and cooler waters on the continental shelf. The location and size of favorable habitat was highly variable among years, which was reflected in the locations of larval bluefin tuna catches. The model successfully placed bluefin tuna larvae in favorable habitat with nearly 90% accuracy, but many negative stations were also located within theoretically favorable habitat. The probability of collecting larval bluefin tuna in favorable habitat was nearly twice the probability of collecting bluefin tuna larvae across all habitats (35.5 versus 21.0%). This model is a useful addition to knowledge of larval bluefin tuna distributions; however, the incorporation of variables describing finer‐scale features, such as thermal fronts, may significantly improve the model’s predictive power.
