Workshop on marine mammal research & monitoring in the National Marine Sanctuaries, Wailea, Maui, Hawaii, 28 November 1999

The Second National Workshop on Marine Mammal Research and Monitoring in the National Marine Sanctuaries was held on 28 November 1999 in Maui, Hawaii. The workshop preceded the Thirteenth Biennial Conference on the Biology of Marine Mammals, and provided an opportunity to review and promote marine mammal research and monitoring in the National Marine Sanctuaries (NMS). The purpose of the workshop was to bring together researchers and sanctuary staff and to improve marine mammal research and monitoring throughout the sanctuaries. Discussion topics included: potential multi-sanctuary projects, sources of funding for multi-sanctuary projects, services and equipment for researchers through the sanctuaries, consolidating small levels of funding, help in funding and support for writing up data, publishing documents in Technical Memoranda, and letters of support. Representatives from the NMS national office and nine sanctuaries provided participants with overviews of marine mammal research within the sanctuaries. Presentations were also given by representatives from the National Marine Fisheries Service’s Permits and Health and Stranding programs. During the breakout working groups, there were several comments and suggestions consistent among each of the groups to improve marine mammal research. Each group emphasized the need to improve communication among researchers and to better share data. These suggestions included web-based information networks, advisory panels, and workshops. Regionally based research projects were also emphasized. In order to best study marine mammal populations, collaborative studies must take place throughout multiple sanctuaries. In order to achieve these large scale studies, funding and staffing must be directed towards these studies and distributed among each of the sanctuaries so that they may all be able to have the staffing, equipment, and vessels necessary to achieve a collaborative, ecosystem-based, regional marine mammal monitoring program. It will take several years to achieve all of the suggestions from the workshop, but thanks to the workshop participants, the National Marine Sanctuary Program has begun to direct marine mammal research and monitoring in order to achieve the goals of the workshop. This document provides a summary of the workshop with a focus on key points/main issues. We have included contact information intended to encourage continued collaboration among the individuals and organizations represented at the 1999 Marine Mammal Research and Monitoring in the National Marine Sanctuaries Workshop.

This document is in Spanish. El capítulo 1 concentra información sobre los volúmenes de producción obtenidos en la fase primaria de la actividad (captura y acuacultura). Las variables manejadas son: producción por principales especies, destino de consumo, litoral y entidad federativa, acuacultura, así como el valor de lo explotado o cultivado a precios de productor (precio en playa); al final se incorpora un conjunto de cuadros con series históricas de producción, desglosadas por principales pesquerías, litorales y entidades. En el capítulo 2 se presentan estadísticas sobre la transformación o industrialización de productos pesqueros. Sus indicadores más representativos se refieren a materia prima procesada y producción obtenida. desagregándola por entidad federativa y principales líneas de producción, es decir, congelado, enlatado, reducción (elaboración de harina de pescado y aceites) y otros procesos. El capítulo 3 contiene las estadísticas sobre la fase de la comercialización y consumo de los productos provenientes de la pesca: disponibilidad, consumo (aparente y per-cápita), precios y balanza comercial pesquera, incluyendo series históricas sobre estos mismos indicadores. Enseguida, en el capítulo 4, se· da a conocer información acerca de los principales activos disponibles en el sector, esto es, flota, planta industrial, instalaciones portuarias, granjas acuícolas comerciales y centros de acuacultura. De igual manera, aparecen las cifras de los empleos generados por la actividad, las organizaciones sociales pesqueras y su membresía, como también los créditos otorgados al sector por la banca de desarrollo. El capítulo 5 resume información sobre las Normas Oficiales Mexicanas (NOM) vigentes y proyectos de I'JOM que conciernen a la actividad pesquera, así como de las vedas que se aplican en las diferentes pesquerías. En el capítulo 6 se hace un compendio de las principales variables de la actividad pesquera mundial, en el que se puede apreciar la destacada participación de México. La estructura del Anuario concluye con la presentación del anexo, que- comprende el glosario de términos, la lista de las especies que integran cada una de las pesquerías para las cuales se presenta información desagregada y, por primera vez, se presentan cuadros sinópticos a manera de indicadores, sobre las principales variables de la pesca mexicana, de las pesquerías más importantes, al igual que las fases y especies con mayor participación relativa en la pesca mundial.

Control of bacterial disease in small scale fresh-water aquaculture: Project R0754. Project completion report December 1998 - May 1999

The work presented here represents an 18-month study to examine the relationship between environmental conditions, bacterial load in the water and bacteria levels in tissue macrophages of a range of clinically healthy freshwater fish species, farmed in a range of culture systems in Thailand and Vietnam. Preliminary assessment was made of the clinical significance of the macrophage bacterial load. The aim of this work was to improve production in fresh-water aquaculture through the control of clinical bacterial disease and subclinical infection, and to identify management practices most effective in promoting fish health.

Winterfischerei auf Garnelen. Die Anteile der europäischen Garnelenflotten an den Anlandungen von Crangon crangon im Zeitraum Januar bis März der Jahre 1990 bis 1999

„Winter fishery“ on brown shrimp does not imply a special type of fishery. It merely means the continuation of the standard fishing procedure of parts of the fleet during wintertime, when the majority of the mostly smaller vessels stay in harbour due to generally unfavourable weather conditions for their activity. During 1990 to 1999 mean European wide landings in January and February summedup to 854 tonnes making up to only 4 % of the mean annual landings (21 805 t). While German vessels landed0.7 % (68.7 t) of their mean annual landings during that period, the other countries caught about 7 % of their individual, mean annual landings at the same time. The Netherlands and Denmark contributed highest tonnages of 580and 110 tonnes, respectively, to the total European landings, making up 81 % of them. As about 70 % of brown shrimp may carry eggs in January, the winter fishery took a mean total of about 2.15 x 1012brown shrimp eggs out of the stocks in that period annually. As there is no reliable assessment available concerning the brown shrimp stocks, it is despite of these high losses of eggs not possible to trace a negative effect of the winter fishery in scientific terms. However, precautional catch reductions in winter would be in favour of higher survival rates of eggs, which are the carrying source for the recruitment of brown shrimp stocks and catches in forthcoming summer and autumn seasons according to Dutch investigations.
