1 The State of the Ocean and the impact of subsidies Daniel Pauly Sea Around Us project Fisheries Centre, UBC World Trade Organization Geneva, September 30, 2010
2 Fisheries landings, despite (or because of ) increasing fishing effort, have been declining since the late 1980s, a fact long hidden by massive over-reporting by China: (a) 90 El Niño events Global catch (t 10 6 ) El Niño event Uncorrected Corrected Corrected, no anchoveta Watson and Pauly (Nature), 2001.
3 In fact, the decline is even stronger if one considers discarded fish. This was generally overlooked when FAO s last estimate of discards (dot E; 7-8 million t) was released C Discarded fishes and invertebrates D Withdrawals (million t) A B Other landed fishes and invertebrates E Peruvian anchoveta Year Zeller and Pauly (Fish & Fisheries, 2005)
4 It is our overfishing which is the cause for these catch declines... Yellow: log hpdays km -2 Red: log hpdays km -2 Fishing effort (2000) Yellow: log liters km -2 Red: log liters km -2. Fuel (2000) Effort data from Gelchu (2006); fuel data adapted from Tyedmers et al. (2005)
5 General trends Predators only: in EEZs: Ecosystem biomass left in 2000: 87.7% Biomass left (%) Predator biomass left: 55.9%
6 Predator biomass remaining (%): 100% 0%
7 Predator biomass remaining (%): 100% 0%
8 Predator biomass remaining (%): 100% 0%
9 Predator biomass remaining (%): 100% 0%
10 Predator biomass remaining (%): 100% 0%
11 Predator biomass remaining (%): 100% 0%
12 Historically, the answer to depletions was moving on, e.g., to West Africa, which has long attracted distant water fleets from other continents Number of country access years by area,
13 which increased over the years, finally reaching the present, staggering levels. Number of country access years by area,
14 An example: catch intensity by Spain, 1950s t/km 2
15 Catch intensity by Spain, t/km 2
16 Top: catch by EU fleets in ; center: areas from which seafood is imported into the EU (same period); below: fraction of the total catch that goes to the EU. >60% 0%
17 Top: catch by the US in ; center: areas from which seafood is imported into the US (same period); below: fraction of the total catch per area that goes to the US. >60% 0%
18 Top: catch by Japan in ; center: areas from which seafood is imported into Japan (same period); below: fraction of the total catch per area that goes to Japan. >60% 0%
19 Result: in the 2000s, three markets (the EU, US and Japan) access much of the marine resources of the world ocean (scale is % of catch destined for one of these three markets; with red=100% and blue= 0%) Sustainable?
20 Back to basics: ecosystem fluxes move up trophic pyramids 4 Top predators Trophic level 3 2 Prey fish Zooplankton 10% 10% 1 Phytoplankton * *.... *.. *. *.. *... *.. *. *. 10% and each species tends to have its own trophic level
21 Another ominous trend emerges when we compute the mean trophic level of world catches. This shows a global decline North Atlantic Trophic level 3.4 Global coastal Year 2000 Pauly et al. (Science, 1998)
22 For example in India Bhathal & Pauly (Fisheries Research, 2008)
23 In fact, fishing down is so widespread that the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) now uses mean trophic levels as an index of biodiversity, the Marine Trophic Index. Trophic level change ( ) >1 0.5 to 1.0 no change /no data
24 And this means that fishing down is everywhere

28 The effect of all this is that jellyfish appear to increase almost everywhere...
29 An indeed, jellyfish are increasing almost everywhere Increase Stable/Variable Decrease
30 and since trawling and fishing down are likely to continue, enjoy your JBLT!
31 Consumers in the North have not noticed this, nor similar trends: while most seafood is traded between the EU, the USA and Northeast Asia, the South has so far met the shortfall in the North.

33 The vicious circle of contemporary fisheries management is to a large extent driven by subsidies.

38 Fuel subsidies are very important to certain fisheries (e.g., trawlers). Fuel prices are likely to increase, however (remember Summer 2008?), and cause big problems to industrial and distant-water fishing... Pauly et al. (Science, 2003)
39 This all lead, overall to a globally declining catch per person Sources: Watson & Pauly (2001, Nature 414: ) & U.S. Bureau of the Census (International database).
40 Summarizing: This graph, which compares smallscale with large-scale fisheries on a global basis, probably underestimates the role of small-scale fisheries, because official statistics underestimate their catch. We would achieve most stated aims of fisheries management plans (particularly with regards to jobs and sustainability) by getting rid of subsidies, which are directed mainly at industrial fisheries. FISHERY BENEFITS LARGE SCALE Number of fishers employed about ½ million SMALL SCALE over 12 millions Annual catch of marine fish for human consumption about 29 million tonnes about 24 million tonnes Capital cost of each job on fishing vessels $30,000 - $300,000 Annual catch of marine fish for industrial reduction to meal and oil, etc. about 22 million tonnes Annual fuel oil consumption Fish caught per tonne of fuel consumed $250 - $2,500 Almost none million tonnes 1 3 million tonnes = 2 5 tonnes = tonnes Fishers employed for each $1 million invested in fishing vessels ,000 Fish and invertebrates discarded at sea million tonnes Little
