  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Operationalizing Open-Source Electronic Monitoring in New England Groundfish Sectors: Is the Future of Monitoring More Cost Effective than the Past? Author: Barney, Amanda, Joyce, Jessica Electronic monitoring (EM) systems hold promise for the future collection of fishery-dependent data, either to supplement human at-sea observers or replace them. Several pilot studies have been conducted on EM in the New England groundfish fleet, though there are still on the water operational and shore-side protocols to further test and refine, not to mention the lack of guiding policy around an EM program for the groundfish fleet. The Gulf of Maine Research Institute and Ecotrust Canada, along with the Maine Coast Community Sector and The Nature Conservancy are entering the third year of a collaborative project to operationalize EM systems on gillnet and trawl vessels in groundfish sectors. The focus of the systems in the first two years has been to obtain species IDs and weights (from lengths) from the video to validate captain’s estimates of the same data in their haul-by-haul log. In Year 3, we are collaborating with NMFS to develop an EM project in fishing year (FY) 2015 that will continue to test proof of concept for a fully operational system in FY 2016 that would replace sector at-sea monitors (ASMs). The groundfish fleet may have to fund ASMs as early as FY2015, and there is a need for a more cost-effective alternative to human observers. This project has been designed with the industry cost-limitations in mind, and depending on the ultimate program requirements for EM, may prove some cost savings to fishermen, but what are the trade-offs?

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Combining Fishermen’s Knowledge with Economic Models to Locate and Evaluate Gray Meat Outbreaks in Atlantic Sea Scallops Author: Levesque, Megan, Inglis, Susan, Endicott, Mike, Stokesbury, Kevin, St. Martin, Kevin, Kristmundsson, Arni, Freeman, Mark A., Georgianna, Daniel, Lee, Min-Yang Atlantic sea scallop fisheries in Iceland and the United States have been subject to outbreaks of ‘gray meat’, a disease caused by infestation by a new species of apicomplexan parasite that causes progressive myodegeneration of scallop meats that kills scallops and reduces recruitment. Due to reduced exvessel value, fishermen discard gray meats, and if possible, move to different fishing areas. Scallop biomass in Iceland dropped from 80% in 1999 to 10% in 2005 due to discards, natural mortality and recruitment failure attributed to gray meat infestation. Initial interviews with U.S. fishermen on the locations of gray meat outbreaks and daily monitoring of the scallop auction reveal that the condition persists in Georges Bank and the range of the infection appears to be large and increasing. This paper reports the spatial and temporal location of gray meats, and oceanographic conditions associated with gray meat infestations in the U.S. We also report the effects of gray meats on scallop exvessel price at the Whaling City Seafood Display Auction. We also examine the loss of biomass of scallops in the 2012 access fishery in Closed Area 1 due to gray meat infestation and discards of gray meat scallops, which led to the early closing of the access fishery after only about one half of allowed scallop trips had been taken. During this access fishery, the scallop biomass declined from 28 million pounds according to the SMAST video survey in 2011 to less than 10 million pounds in 2013.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Fishing and Other Ocean Recreation Impacts on Coastal Regions: The National Ocean Recreation Expenditures Survey Author: Thomson, Cindy, Curtis, Rita, Kosaka, Rosemary, Steinback, Scott From 2012 through 2013, NOAA Fisheries Service conducted a study to collect participation, effort, and expenditure information related to ocean recreation activities in the United States. This study collected information from all 50 states and the District of Columbia in six, two-month waves. There were eight ocean recreation categories of interest: recreational finfishing; recreational shellfishing; hunting waterfowl or other animals; viewing or photographing the ocean and wildlife; beachcombing and tidepooling; water contact sports such as swimming and surfing; boating and related activities such as wake boarding and tubing; and outdoor activities not involving water contact such as beach volleyball and camping. The survey was conducted using an online panel of U.S. households and was available in both English and Spanish. Over 31,000 respondents completed the survey, resulting in a survey completion rate of 60%. This dataset provides an abundance of information regarding numbers and types of ocean recreation trips made by respondents, details of individual trips, and respondent characteristics. The survey also included questions regarding how hypothetical changes in air temperature might influence ocean recreation preferences. This talk will provide more details about the study, the types of information collected, the questions the data are intended to answer, and our analytic efforts to date.
