Distinct Yellowfin Tuna (Thunnus albacares) Stocks Detected in Western and Central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) Using DNA Microsatellites
The yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares (Bonnaterre, 1788), covers majority of the Philippines' tuna catch, one of the major fisheries commodities in the country. Due to its high economic importance sustainable management of these tunas has become an imperative measure to prevent stock depletion. Currently, the Philippine yellowfin tuna is believed to be part of a single stock of the greater WCPO...
متن کاملInfluence of oceanographic variability on recruitment of yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares in the western and central Pacific Ocean
Recruitment estimates for yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in the western and central Pacific Ocean (WCPO), derived from a stock assessment model, are highly variable seasonally, interannually, and over decadal periods. A generalized linear model (GLM) was developed that predicts the variation in yellowfin tuna recruitment in response to a range of oceanographic variables. The GLM model accou...
متن کاملA spatially disaggregated, length-based, age-structured population model of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in the western and central Pacific Ocean
A spatially disaggregated, length-based, age-structured model for yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in the western and central Pacific Ocean is described. Catch, effort, length-frequency and tagging data stratified by quarter (for the period 1962−99), seven model regions and 16 fisheries are used in the analysis. The model structure includes quarterly recruitment in each region, 20 quarterly a...
متن کاملNursery origin of yellowfin tuna in the Hawaiian Islands
Stable isotopes of carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O) in otolith cores (first 2 mo of age) of young-of-the-year (YOY) yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares were used as natural tracers to predict the nursery origin of sub-adults (age-1) collected from the Hawaiian Islands. YOY fish were first collected from nurseries throughout the western and central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) to determine whether δ13C and ...
