Anuario Estadistico de Pesca 1996

This document is in Spanish. El capítulo I concentra información sobre los volúmenes de producción obtenidos en la fase primaria de la actividad (capturas y acuacultura). Las principales variables manejadas son: producción por principales especies, por destino de consumo, por litoral y por entidad federativa, así como su valor a precios de playa; se incorpora al final un conjunto de cuadros con series históricas de producción. En el capítulo 11, se presentan estadísticas sobre la transformación o industrialización de productos pesqueros. Los 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 111 contiene las estadísticas sobre la fase de la comercialización y consumo de los productos provenientes de la pesca: disponibilidad, consumos (aparente y per-cápita), precios y balanza comercial pesquera, incluyendo series históricas sobre estos mismos indicadores. Enseguida, en el capítulo IV, se da a conocer información acerca de los principales activos disponibles en el sector, esto es, sobre la flota, planta industrial, instalaciones portuarias, granjas acuícolas comerciales y centros de acuacultura. Asimismo, aparecen las cifras de los empleos generados por la actividad y de los créditos otorgados al sector por la banca de desarrollo. El capítulo V resume información sobre las Normas Oficiales Mexicanas (NOM) vigentes y proyectos de NOM que conciernen a la actividad pesquera, así como de las vedas que se aplican en las diferentes pesquerías. En el capítulo VI se hace un compendio de las principales variables de la actividad pesquera mundial, en el que se puede apreciar la participación de México en la pesca internacional. En este caso, las estadísticas se basan en FAO, anuario estadísticas de pesca, 1994, vol. 78 capturas y desembarques y vol. 79 productos pesqueros, también en el Boletín Estadístico de Pesca, No. 34, estadísticas de las flotas de pesca, 1970, 1975, 1980, 1984-92, dado que son los últimos números de las series que se encuentran disponibles. La estructura del Anuario concluye con la presentación del anexo, que comprende el glosario de términos y la lista de las especies que integran cada una de las pesquerías para las cuales se presenta información desagregada.

Cooperative artificial propagation programs for salmon and steelhead, 1995-1996

Fifteen cooperative fish rearing and planting programs for salmon and steelhead were active from July 1, 1995 through June 30, 1996. For all programs, 134,213 steelhead trout,(Oncorhynchus mykiss), 7,742,577 chinook salmon,(~ tshawytscha),and 25,075 coho salmon(~ kisutch) were planted. (PDF contains 26 pages.)

Cooperative artificial propagation programs for salmon and steelhead, 1996-1997

Fourteen cooperative fish rearing and planting programs for salmon and steelhead were active from July 1, 1996 through June 30, 1997. For all programs, 208,922 steelhead trout, (Oncorhynchus mykiss), 10,334,457 chinook salmon,(O. tshawytscha),and 60,681 coho salmon(O. kisutch) were planted. (PDF contains 24 pages.)

Dänemarks Fischereierträge 1996 konstant - aber deutlicher Anstieg 1997

Although landings in 1996 were 319 000 t down (–16 %) from 1995 the returns from fishery in 1996 were almost as high as 1995 ( 3014 mio. dkr; – 0.2 %). Industrial fishery alone decreased by 268 000 t. The average price for all landed species was 1.81 dkr/kg, an increase of 19 % compared to 1995, with a range of 0.61 dkr/kg for industrial fish (sandeel etc.) to 62 dkr/kg for sole. 1997 the fishery scene improved again. Already in November landings reached 1.74 mio. t, more than all 1996. Price increase was not as strong as 1996; on average 5 % until November. Total return until November was, however, alreday 3250 mio. dkr; 405 mio dkr above total return of 1996.

Seltene Fischlarven in den Ichthyoplanktonfängen der westlichen Ostsee im Zeitraum 1993 - 1996

Distribution and abundance of fish eggs and larvae in North Sea and Baltic Sea have been objectives of fishery research for over 100 years. Most fish species produce pelagic eggs or larvae. The early developmental stages of many marine fish species important to commercial fishery are part of plankton communities, and can be sampled by a single gear. Collections of fish in their larval phase provide material for studies of many aspects of fishery research: e.g. information on plankton communities and abundance of fish species in the area of investigation.

Dokumentation eines Einstroms von warmem salzhaltigem Wasser in das Bornholmbecken im Oktober 1996

The Institute for Baltic Fisheries, Rostock, performed three research cruises with different aims in autumn (September - November) 1996. The area of investigation ranged from the southern Kattegat, the Belts, the Arkona Sea to the Bornholm Basin. With a CTD memory probe hydrographical data were sampled after many trawl stations from the surface to the bottom. These data document a saltwater inflow in the deeper water of the Bornholm Basin at the beginning of November.

Die deutsche Fischerei vor Nordnorwegen und bei der Bäreninsel im Dezember 1996 und im ersten Halbjahr 1997

Biological investigations were carried out onboard the German factory trawlers “Wiesbaden” and “Kiel” off the Norwegian coast and at Bear Island from December 1996 to June 1997. Data will be contributed to the assessments of the ICES “Arctic Fisheries Working Group”. Information on distribution and fishery of cod, haddock, saithe, redfish and Greenland halibut are given. Biological aspects of length- and age distributions, and stomach- and gonad investigations are represented. Some aspects of the function of sorting grids used in the Bear Island fishery are discussed.

Das Klima um Grönland - 1996

Based on air temperature data from three sites of West and East Greenland, on ice charts for the area 54°N, 71°N and 20°W, 70°W, and on CTD profile observations around Greenland, the annual variability of climate is shown. Mean monthly air temperature data from Nuuk/West Greenland reveal the long-term interannual changes of air temperature anomalies. The warming trend which was observed during November, December 1995 was maintained into 1996 for about five months. Thus, spring warming of the near surface water layers, especially on the shallow bank areas off West Greenland has been favoured. As a result of mild air temperatures over most of 1996, sea ice conditions were about normal around Greenland and off eastern Canada. Subsurface observations indicate considerable warming of the 0-200 m water layer off West Greenland. The thermal anomaly of this layer amounts to +1.59K, which is the second highest value on record since the warm 1964 event. The warmer than normal conditions as recorded since November 1995 off East and West Greenland, point at intermediate warming which is characteristic of the second half of the recent decades. The long-term trend of air temperature anomalies off West Greenland points, however, still at cooling, a trend which is persistent since the early 1970s. As the potential driving mechanism for the intermediate warming in the Labrador Sea area, the sea level air pressure gradient between Iceland and the Azores is identified. The 1996 value of this gradient, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) Index, is strongly negative and this represents the flow of mild air masses from the midlatitude Atlantic Ocean to the Greenland/Labrador Sea region. Accordingly, air temperature anomalies indicated unusual warming during the month of February which amounted to >2K in the region of Baffin Land, Labrador and Greenland.

Über die Herkunft des starken Kabeljau-Jahrgangs 1996 in der Nordsee

Cod in the North Sea is expected to reach „Safe biological limit“ due to a strong 1996 year-class. The cod fry was seen first as 5 cm fingerlings in the catches during a hydroacoustic survey in the southeastern North Sea. Back-calculations of the water drift show with high probability that the respective spawning ground was situated in the southwestern North Sea.

Norwegens Fischerei 1996: Anlandungen und Erlöse weiter gestiegen

Norway’s sea fishery 1996 ranked 9th world wide. Preliminary data for 1996, as published in the Norwegean journal Fiskets Gang, show a further increase of the total catch by 114 000 tonnes, which now reached 2.63 million tonnes. The value of these landings were 8550 million nkr, up by 381 million nkr. The 5 most caught species were herring, cod, blue whiting and saithe. The 5 highest values, however, were obtained by cod, mackerel, herring, saithe and deepsea prawn. Considerable increases of prices were noted for jack mackerel (+142 %), mackerel (+133 %) and herring (+34 %).
