1 8.3.3 Advice May 2014 ECOREGION Baltic Sea STOCK Cod in Subdivisions Advice for 2015 ICES advises on the basis of the data-limited approach (see Quality considerations) that catches should be no more than tonnes. ICES advises the implementation of a spatial management plan for the clupeid stocks in Subdivisions (see Sections and ).

2 EU has agreed on a multi-annual plan for cod in the Baltic Sea in 2007 (EC, 2007). ICES has evaluated the management plan in 2009 and considers it to be in accordance with the precautionary approach. It should, however, be noted that there is a large difference between the F MSY and the target F in the management plan, regardless of the different reference age. It should be noted that the agreed multi-annual plan was developed under the assumption of unchanged growth. The most recent information shows that this assumption is no longer valid. For that reason, ICES has not used the EU-agreed multi-annual plan as the basis for advice. Biology Cod is the main predator on sprat and herring, and the natural mortality of the pelagic stocks is likely affected by changes in cod stock size and size distribution, but also stock geographical overlap. However, at present, the geographical overlap between cod and the pelagic stocks has been reduced since the 1980s. Consistent with an increasing number of cod and a declining availability of sprat and herring in the current main distribution area of cod (Subdivisions 25 and 26), the mean weight of larger cod has sharply declined in recent years. However, other possible reasons for the decline in growth include overall density-dependent growth, parasites, or reduced availability of benthic invertebrates. The recent trend in decreased growth has also resulted in a dramatic decrease in the number and biomass of larger cod. Environmental influence on the stock The recruitment of eastern Baltic cod is mainly driven by hydrological factors. At present, successful reproduction of the eastern Baltic cod occurs only in the Bornholm Basin (Subdivision 25), where the conditions for successful spawning (the reproductive volume) have been reasonable, but highly variable during the past decade. The distribution of cod is currently mainly confined to Subdivisions 25 and 26, and with very low abundance in northern areas (Subdivisions 27 32). Since the mid-1990s the area of anoxic seabed has increased in autumn in all subdivisions of the central Baltic (Hansson and Andersson, 2013). This pattern is especially evident for the northern areas (Subdivisions 27, 28, and 29), whereas in the south (Subdivision 25) the extent of anoxic areas has stabilized since the mid-1990s. The increased area of anoxic seabed can have different effects on the cod population, such as changes in the stock spatial distribution, worsening of the density-dependent growth and decrease of the availability of benthic food. In spring, however, the oxygen content in the deeper parts of the Bornholm Basin has been higher in the last few years (since 2010), allowing for a bottom trawl fishery in areas that were previously void of cod. Therefore, the extent and distribution of anoxic areas are likely to also affect the tuning fleet indices and fishing practices, both of which may affect the stock assessment. The grey seal populations in the Baltic Sea have increased in recent years. Grey seals have fish as their main diet and are estimated to consume an average of 4.5 kg fish per day; however, the total amount of consumed cod is unknown. The fisheries Trawlers and gillnetters, with a minor amount of longliners, represent the main fisheries. Since 2009 the TAC has not been fully utilized and in 2013 only 46% of the TAC was utilized. The amount of fishable cod in the stock above the minimum landing size (MLS), 38 cm, has decreased since 2010 and the amount of fish below the minimum landing size has increased. This is likely a consequence of decreased growth rate and relatively high recruitment the last five years. The reduced growth rate has also resulted in age groups that were previously above the minimum landing size being now below it and not being allowed to be landed by the industry. The low fishable biomass can partially explain the low quota uptake as this level is the lowest in the time-series and high abundance of cod just below the MLS can contribute to the increased discarding observed. The demersal fisheries for cod in the eastern Baltic have bycatch of flounder, which are mainly discarded. Catch distribution Total catch (2013): 36.4 kt (83% by active and 17% by passive fisheries), where 84% were landings (31.4 kt) and 5 kt discards. Effects of the fisheries on the ecosystem The use of a size selective gear that was designed to reduce catch of cod below the MLS may favour the slow-growing individuals in the population. Because sprat and herring are important prey for cod, the cod fishery can indirectly affect the sprat and herring stocks by changing predation mortality on these species. Furthermore, the fishery for sprat and herring in the distribution area of cod can influence the available food base for cod. 2 ICES Advice 2014, Book 8
3 Quality considerations There are three main areas of quality concerns important for the assessment. Ageing discrepancies between countries have been recognised for a long time but the recent trend in growth rate may have increased the consequence of this problem. Another concern is how the reduction in growth (condition) may have affected catchability in the fisheries and surveys. It has been assumed that the catchabilities in the tuning series were constant. The condition in cod could affect the catchability via gear selectivity (with larger cod being caught whereas slimmer cod would pass through the mesh in the gear) or through changes in cod behaviour. A further concern is the rapid decrease in the abundance of larger and older cod in recent years and to determine whether these individuals are dying of natural causes or by fishing. These concerns have led to the rejection of the age-based assessment used previously. The advice is based on a combined biomass index from two surveys, used as proxy for SSB. The uncertainty associated with the index values is not available. The 2013 benchmark utilized data up to The subsequent two years of data have suggested that some processes were not incorporated in the previous assessment model. ICES will attempt to use the available information in an appropriate assessment model in a benchmark in the near future.

(Last changed in: 2013) The reference points are derived from an assessment which is currently not accepted to provide advice. Outlook for 2015 No analytical assessment can be presented for this stock. Therefore, no forecast can be presented and due to the perception of the stock having changed, ICES is in the process of benchmarking in the near future. ICES approach to data-limited stocks For stocks for which a biomass index is available, ICES uses as harvest control rule an index-adjusted status quo catch. The advice is based on a comparison of the two most recent index values with the three preceding values, combined with recent catch or landings data. Knowledge about the exploitation status also influences the advised catch. For this stock, the spawning-stock biomass index is estimated to have decreased by more than 20% between the periods (average of the three years) and (average of the two years). This implies a decrease in catches of 20% in relation to last year s (2013) catches ( tonnes), corresponding to catches of no more than tonnes in Assuming the same discard rates as last year, this implies wanted catches 1 of no more than tonnes. Taking the reduced growth into account (Figure ), the estimated harvest rate (HR) is low compared to values from a decade ago. The HR also appears to be relatively stable and the estimated fishing effort for this stock (Figure ) does not show any significant trend; ICES therefore considers that there are no immediate concerns regarding the exploitation rate. Catches were substantially reduced last year ( 39%), well below the advice, and this reduction will act in a similar way to the precautionary buffer. Due to both the low exploitation and recent 39% reduction in catch it is considered that an additional 20% precautionary buffer reduction is not required. The present advice is based on an assessment that ICES considers only as an interim solution. Multispecies considerations Fishing on the prey stocks herring and sprat will influence the food availability for cod and thereby the level of cod cannibalism and cod yield. Previously, the applied F for the prey species (in the range of ; ICES, 2013b) was considered to only marginally affect the long-term yield of cod. In the absence of an analytical assessment for cod, ICES is unable to update this information. Additional considerations 1 Wanted catch is used to describe fish that would be landed in the absence of the EU landing obligation. The unwanted catch refers to the component that was previously discarded. 4 ICES Advice 2014, Book 8
5 Advice considerations The recent decreased growth and the resulting dramatic decrease in number and biomass of larger cod has indicated that there may be a need for additional measures to protect the older cod in the stock. The decrease in growth for larger cod is likely caused by many factors such as a general decrease in food availability (benthos, pelagic fish, and other food items) influenced by density dependence of cod, an increase in parasites induced by seals, and an increased number of anoxic areas. However, the only fishery component possible to manage in addition to the fishing mortality on cod is the amount of pelagic species (herring and sprat) caught in the main area of cod. ICES advises the implementation of a spatial management plan to reduce the fishing pressure for the pelagic stocks in Subdivisions 25 26, where the cod is concentrated (see Sections and ). Management considerations There are indications that discards in general have increased recently, particularly of older age groups, which is probably due to cod being in a more poor condition and having slower growth. The amount of fish above the minimum landing size (38 cm) has recently diminished and the amount of fish below the minimum landing size has increased in the population (Figure ). This has likely been a consequence of decreased growth. Age groups that were previously above the minimum landing size are now below it. This can partially explain the fact that the quotas are not filled and may also contribute to the increased discarding. Changes in fishing technology and fishing patterns Cod in the eastern Baltic are taken primarily by trawlers and gillnetters. There was a substantial increase in the use of gillnets in the 1990s. In 2013, gillnet catches accounted for about 17% of the total catch. Regulations and their effects The fishery is managed through TAC, effort, seasonal fisheries restrictions, and technical measures. The Baltic cod management plan (EC Regulation 1098/2007) called for, inter alia, a reduction in fishing effort (10% annually in terms of number of fishing days per year) until the target F has been reached. The maximum number of fishing days for Subdivisions was fixed at 160 in 2010, and remained at 160 days in 2011, 2012, and Since 2012, EU Member Countries have been allowed to allocate additional days absent from port to some vessels if an equal amount of days absent from port is withdrawn from other vessels. The number of vessels being allocated additional days may not exceed 10% of the total number of vessels. The cod fisheries in the eastern Baltic are also regulated by a seasonal closure from 1 July to 31 August. A closure of a central part of the main spawning area in the Bornholm Deep has been implemented since the mid-1990s for all fisheries. A year-round area closure for all fisheries in specific areas of the Bornholm Deep, the Gotland Basin, and the Gdansk Deep was introduced in 2005, aimed at reducing fishing mortality. Since 2006, area closures have been implemented from 1 May to 31 October. The plan was designed to protect the spawning aggregation. However, STECF's evaluation (STECF, 2012) of the impact of the present spawning closures on the stocks and the fisheries concluded that the effect "is unclear but the measures are unlikely to have had a limiting effect on the overall fishing mortality. Spawning closures are not required to meet the biological objectives of the management plan as long as the TACs are effective in limiting the fishing mortalities as intended. Highgrading has been prohibited since 1 January 2010 in all Baltic Sea fisheries. Data from observer schemes indicate that highgrading is a minor problem. To decrease discards, a Bacoma codend with a 120 mm mesh was introduced by the International Baltic Sea Fisheries Commission (IBSFC) in 2001 in parallel with an increase in diamond mesh size to 130 mm in traditional codends. The expected effect of introducing the Bacoma 120 mm exit window was nullified by compensatory measures in the industry. This was to some extent explained by the mismatch between the selectivity of the 120 m Bacoma trawl and the minimum landing size. In October 2003, the regulation was changed to a 110 mm Bacoma window. This was expected to enhance the compliance and to be in better accordance with the minimum landing size, which was changed from 35 to 38 cm in the same year. On 1 March 2010 the Bacoma 120 mm was re-introduced along with an extended Bacoma window (5.5 m) to further decrease discarding, and the minimum landing size was kept at 38 cm. ICES Advice 2014 Book 8 5
6 Information from the fishing industry Some of the information on historical mis- and underreporting came from industry sources, indicating that the estimates used in the assessment are minimum values. From 2010 the mis- and underreporting has been negligible. The increase in flatfish abundance interferes with the selectivity of the Bacoma codend, and discarding of cod has increased in 2011 and The fishing industry reported that since 2012 the number of larger fish has decreased remarkably and, in contrast to the perceived increase in SSB from the last year s assessment, to an extent where the fishery was not able to catch their quota. There is recent anecdotal information that this may have incentivised gear manufacturers to introduce modifications aimed at reducing the selectivity, thus increasing total catch but at the same time increasing the discards of undersized cod. Environmental conditions Successful spawning is limited to regions with favourable oxygen and salinity conditions (reproductive volume). As a consequence, two (the Gotland and the Gdansk basins) out of three spawning areas have ceased to significantly contribute to the reproduction of the eastern Baltic cod. Cod distribution in the Baltic is affected by environmental conditions, specifically lack of oxygen. In recent years, even though the stock has increased in Subdivision 25 and to a lesser extent in Subdivision 26, and is apparently suffering from food limitation, there is no strong northwards expansion (Figure ). This could be related to a number of factors, including continued poor hydrographic conditions in the northern areas (an extensive area of anoxic seabed and absence of a reproductive volume), affecting cod active movements and recruitment. The lack of expansion of cod into northern areas could, however, also be due to a loss of the northern spawning components. The grey seal populations have increased in the Baltic Sea in recent years, from around 2000 animals in the early 1970s to close to seals in The numbers of grey seals in the ICES Subdivisions 24 and 25 have increased from 260 in 2004 to close to 1800 in Presently the population of grey seals is increasing by 6% a year (Härkönen et al., 2013). Data and methods An index of SSB is obtained from the combined time-series of BITS Q1 and Q4 surveys and relates to cod 30 cm. The last three years of data show that this length corresponds to the length at which 50% of the individuals are mature. For each survey, cpue (number hour 1 ) per length class is converted into a cpue in weight (kg h 1 ) using the quarterspecific length weight relationships. For a given year, the sum of cpue by length for cod larger or equal to 30 cm from the Q1 survey of that year is averaged with the cpue from the Q4 survey of the preceding year (e.g., the 2014 index is the mean of the 2014 Q1 cpue and the 2013 Q4 cpue; Table ). Large inconsistencies exist in age determinations for the eastern Baltic cod stock owing to the lack of clear growth rings in the otoliths. ICES attempted to resolve the inconsistencies in age determinations for this stock, but no consensus was reached on the age determinations. An EU-funded study initiated in 2007 (project DECODE) has taken a different approach to delivering validated ageing data for the assessment, but this method is not fully validated from tagging studies. The SSB index used to provide this year s advice, being based on lengths, excludes the problem connected with age estimation. Uncertainties in the assessment and forecast The present advice is based on an assessment that ICES considers only as an interim solution. Several aspects of the eastern Baltic cod biology need to be evaluated to determine how the outcome of a revised stock assessment would be affected: 1) Age reading: The discrepancies between the age estimates has increased the last three years. 2) Catchabillity by age: There are indications that the catchability has changed in the tuning fleets and in the fisheries in recent years. 3) Analysis of the rapid decrease in the abundance of larger and older cod in recent years and to determine whether these individuals are dying of natural causes or by fishing. 4) Determine which factors affect cod growth, maturity, and fecundity. 5) Model adjustments: How can the above problems be incorporated into the model. 6) Explore to what extent Subdivision 24 should be merged with Subdivisions All of these aspects should be considered in a benchmark process in the near future, with support from clients and ICES Member Countries. 6 ICES Advice 2014, Book 8
7 CPUE (Kg/h) Percentage CPUE Removals of cod in recreational fisheries in the Baltic Sea are currently neither consistently nor completely sampled; they are therefore not included in the assessment. Comparison of the basis of previous assessment and advice In 2013 the assessment was an aged-based analytical assessment (SAM). The 2014 assessment is based on trends of SSB proxy from surveys. In 2013 the basis for the advice was the EC management plan. This year, the basis for the advice is the ICES approach to data-limited stocks.
