Population Structure and Dynamics of Walleye Pollock, Theragra chalcogramma

Kevin M. Bailey, +3 more
- 01 Jan 1999 - 
TL;DR: The population biology of walleye pollock, Theragra chalcogramma, is described including its life history, population dynamics, genetic structure and metapopulation structure, which suggests a pattern of geographic stock structure, with varying levels of gene flow between major regions.

An Integrated System for Production Fish Aging: Image Analysis and Quality Assurance

Alexander K. Morison, +2 more
- 01 Aug 1998 - 
TL;DR: A fully integrated system that has been in operation for 5 years and has been used to provide age estimates for more than 150 species is described, which combines the requirements of high-quality “production” aging with the benefits of a customized image analysis system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combining Telemetry and Fisheries Tagging Models to Estimate Fishing and Natural Mortality Rates

Kenneth H. Pollock, +2 more
- 01 May 2004 - 
TL;DR: This paper combines the two methods, using direct information about both fishing and natural mortality to obtain more precise and effectively unbiased parameter estimates, including reporting rate estimates for the regular tags.
Journal ArticleDOI

Massive prey recruitment and the control of rocky subtidal communities on large spatial scales

Jon D. Witman, +4 more
- 01 Aug 2003 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that the bottom-up effects observed in consumer populations were produced by increased growth, elevated reproduction and recruitment, and possibly by immigration, as well as by immigration.

Growth and productivity of orange roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus) on the north Chatham Rise

Pamela M. Mace, +3 more
- 01 Mar 1990 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that maximum age may exceed 50 years, the instantaneous rate of natural mortality is probably below 0.10, and spawning success may be highly variable, which makes orange roughy susceptible to overfishing.
