Outline• Definitions and terms• Why the declines don’t make sense
– Japanese longline catch and effort (EP0)– Population dynamics
• Explanatory hypotheses– Regime change– Ecosystem– Spatial distribution of effort– Habitat and gear distribution– Stupid fish hypothesis
• Summary
![Page 3: Are the apparent rapid declines in top pelagic predators real? Mark Maunder, Shelton Harley, Mike Hinton, and others IATTC.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649cad5503460f9496fac5/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Definitions
• CPUE = catch-per-unit-of-effort
• Nominal CPUE
• Fitting a model
• Carrying capacity – Average abundance in the absence of fishing
![Page 4: Are the apparent rapid declines in top pelagic predators real? Mark Maunder, Shelton Harley, Mike Hinton, and others IATTC.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649cad5503460f9496fac5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Basic assumption
C = EqA C/E = qA
Where : C= catch, E = effort, and A = abundance

Fit model to data
• PellaTomlinson-model with Nmsy/N0 = 30% (based on numbers)
• Project population dynamics from an unexploited condition using observed catch
• Fit to CPUE data as a relative abundance index (assume CPUE proportional to abundance)
• Use only Japanese longline CPUE and Catch data

• Also improves fit to blue marlin data

Simulation of effort expansion
• Effort increases by 100 units every 5 years
• Movement of effort only occurs every five years
• No movement of fish among areas
• In highest profit hypothesis, new effort goes into new area and old effort stays in the same area
• In highest CPUE hypothesis, all effort goes into new area

Habitat, gear, and fish behavior
• Fish have habitats that they prefer• Habitat changes with the environment • Fishermen’s behavior determines where
the gear fishes• Gear, habitat, and fish behavior have to
match for fishing to be successful• Gear, habitat, and fish behavior have to be
taken into consideration when interpreting CPUE

Habitat standardization
• Used to remove the changes of gear depth and the environment from the relative index of abundance
• Method developed by Hinton and Nakano 1996• Applied to bigeye and yellowfin tuna by Bigelow
et al. 2002• Used in the assessments of yellowfin tuna,
bigeye tuna, blue marlin, striped marlin, and swordfish in the EPO

Other Hypotheses• Multiple stocks (e.g. northern and southern
albacore)• Fraction of stock (bluefin)• Stock distribution limited (e.g. Striped Marlin,
Swordfish, sailfish, shortbill spearfish)• Gear saturation/interference• Increase in fishing power• Targeting (swordfish, bait, setting at night)• Age specific natural mortality• Fishing regulations (e.g. EEZ)
![Page 48: Are the apparent rapid declines in top pelagic predators real? Mark Maunder, Shelton Harley, Mike Hinton, and others IATTC.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649cad5503460f9496fac5/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Myers Dalhousie Group
• Soak time – increases current CPUE– Has slightly increased – Increased soak time increases CPUE
• Shark damage – increases current CPUE– 25% in early data and about 4% in recent data – Lower shark damage increases CPUE
• Hook saturation - increases current CPUE– Bait loss due to catching other species has decreased– More bait available increases CPUE
• Depth of gear• Ecosystem• Also looking at non-pelagic species and dada from trawl• World wide patterns similar
![Page 49: Are the apparent rapid declines in top pelagic predators real? Mark Maunder, Shelton Harley, Mike Hinton, and others IATTC.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649cad5503460f9496fac5/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Summary– Regime change
• Same for all species?• Implies that the stocks are depleted• New management values for new regime
– Ecosystem• Implies that the stocks are depleted• Does not explain all increase in production
– Spatial distribution of effort• Spatial expansion occurred when the rapid
declines occurred• CPUE declines faster than abundance• Final depletion level is the same
![Page 50: Are the apparent rapid declines in top pelagic predators real? Mark Maunder, Shelton Harley, Mike Hinton, and others IATTC.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649cad5503460f9496fac5/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Summary continued– Habitat and gear distribution
• Did not change during period of depletion• Current abundance may be underestimated for
most species explaining current catches
– Stupid fish hypothesis• Both stupid fish and age-specific vulnerability could
explain some of the decline• Indicates stocks are less depleted
– Limited distribution of stock• Probably explains increase in CPUE for striped
marlin, swordfish, sailfish, and spearfish
![Page 51: Are the apparent rapid declines in top pelagic predators real? Mark Maunder, Shelton Harley, Mike Hinton, and others IATTC.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649cad5503460f9496fac5/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Conclusions
• Regime change, ecosystem, and spatial distribution result in high depletion levels
• Longline depth, stupid fish hypothesis, and age-specific vulnerability result in lower depletion levels
• Ecosystem, spatial distribution, longline gear depth, and age-specific vulnerability most likely
