  • Distributions and fishery associations of immature short-tailed albatrosses (Phoebastria albatrus) in the North Pacific

    Creator:
    O'Connor, Amelia J.
    Abstract:
    Short-tailed albatrosses (Phoebastria albatrus, hereafter "STAL") migrate throughout the North Pacific, overlapping with multiple large scale fisheries. In the Bering Sea, documented bycatch of this species is a focal conservation concern, due to the fact that this species is listed as "endangered" under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. We conducted...

  • Evaluation of data-poor and age-structure management strategies for west coast rockfish

    Creator:
    Arnold, Linsey M.
    Abstract:
    Management strategies to prevent overfishing while achieving optimum yield vary according to the available data and life history of the fished stock. I evaluated two sets of management strategies for Pacific coast rockfish: strategies to set harvest limits for data-poor stocks, and strategies intended to protect the age structure of...

  • Evaluating the data-poor fishery stock assessment method, DB-SRA

    Creator:
    Owashi, Brandon R.
    Abstract:
    Depletion-Based Stock Reduction Analysis (DB-SRA; Dick and MacCall, 2011) is a catch-only fisheries stock assessment model that has been developed to estimate an overfishing limit (OFL) in data-poor situations. DB-SRA projects the biomass trajectories of a stock by means of a catch time series and five parameters: the instantaneous, per...
