Proportional recruitment indices of Antarctic krill from Japanese fisheries data in Subareas 48.1, 48.2 and 48.3 during 1980 through 1997
around the Elephant Island. However, the values especially R1 in this study were extremely smaller than ... Siegel et al. (1 998)'s values. This may be due to the net selectivity and/or incomplete coverage of ... the distribution of small krill by commercial fisheries. Inter-annual pattern of R1 and R2 in Subarea ... 48.2 showed somewhat similar pattern to Subarea 48.1. However, because of inconsistency of the ...

A perspective on steepness, reference points, and stock assessment
these patterns. For the production model, we derive explicit relationships for steepness and life ... history parameters and then for steepness and major reference points. For the age-structured model, we are ... required to generally use numerical computation, and so we provide an example that complements the ... analytical results of the production model. We discuss what it means to set steepness equal to 1 and how to ...

Seabird avoidance measures for small Alaskan longline vessels
Abstract: Given the lack of information on appropriate seabird avoidance measures for small ... Alaskan longline vessels, we determined the “2-m access window”, or the distance astern that longline ... (> 26 to 55 feet) using two gear types: snap-on gear and fixed gear. We also determined the ... guidelines. Vessel speed was found to be a primary determinant of both the distance astern that longline ...
