Feeding in a heterogeneous environment: spatial dynamics in summer foraging Barents Sea cod
Cod Gadus morhua are important predators in many ecosystems in the North Atlantic, but their ecological importance has diminished in many areas due to stock size reductions. In contrast, the Barents Sea cod stock is currently the world’s largest and at a high level. The goal of our study was to elucidate spatial aspects of cod−prey interactions in the Barents Sea during recent warm years (2004 ...
متن کاملA new model for simulating growth in fish
A real dynamic population model calculates change in population sizes independent of time. The Beverton & Holt (B&H) model commonly used in fish assessment includes the von Bertalanffy growth function which has age or accumulated time as an independent variable. As a result the B&H model has to assume constant fish growth. However, growth in fish is highly variable depending on food availabilit...
متن کاملComparison of the biophysical and trophic characteristics of the Bering and Barents Seas
The eastern Bering Sea and the Barents Sea share a number of common biophysical characteristics. For example, both are seasonally ice-covered, high-latitude, shelf seas, dependent on advection for heat and for replenishment of nutrients on their shelves, and with ecosystems dominated by a single species of gadoid fish. At the same time, they differ in important respects. In the Barents Sea, adv...
متن کاملScenario - C : The cod predation model
Tittel/Title: Scenario-C: The cod predation model. Sammendrag/Abstract: The Scenario C project aims at a dynamic minimal realistic model for capelin, herring, cod, harp seals and minke whales in the Barents Sea and for herring in the Norwegian Sea. This report is an attempt to estimate a consumption function for cod from estimated monthly abundances of capelin, herring and younger cod in region...
متن کاملDetermining Optimal Catch in Age-Structured Multispecies Fisheries
This study investigates optimal catch of Barents Sea stocks, namely Northeast Arctic Cod and Capelin in multispecies ecosystem. We solve a multispecies age structured bioeconomic model for predator-prey interaction. Barents Sea stock data from ICES are employed for model application. Among others, we also include sustainability constraint in the model that contributes towards ecosystem based ma...
