1 Effect of Ocean Conditions on the Cross-shelf Distribution of Walleye Pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) and Capelin (Mallotus villosus) Anne Hollowed, Chris Wilson, Phyllis Stabeno, and Libby Logerwell National Marine Fisheries Service Alaska Fisheries Science Center 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle, WA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle, WA 98115
2 80% decline of the western stock of Steller sea lions 1997 declared endangered (ESA) Sease & Gudmundson 2002
3 Hypotheses to explain the decline Intentional and unintentional takes Climate change Disease, pathogens and toxins Predators Competition with groundfish fisheries National Research Council, Decline of the Steller Sea Lion in Alaskan Waters
4 5 Year Study Steller Sea Lion Study Site Eastside of Kodiak Island 25 day cruises in August 2000, August 2001 August 2002 August 2004 August 2006 Walleye Pollock Capelin
5 Key Questions Do commercial fishing activities influence the distribution and abundance of Steller sea lion prey species? Wilson et al How do spatial distributions and abundance of prey impact Steller sea lion foraging success? How do fish respond to local bio-physical forcing? Distribution patterns of principal acoustic sign types: capelin, adult, age 1 Comparative approach Hollowed et al. In Press, Logerwell et al. in review
6 Pollock Study area Russia Alaska Bering Sea Kodiak Is. Pacific Ocean Gulf of Alaska
7 Longitude ( o W) Pollock Study site 58.0 Chiniak Trough (control) 57.5 Kodiak I. Ugak Bay Cape Chiniak Latitude (o N) 57.0 Dangerous Cape Barnabas Trough (treatment) 200 m 100 m
8 Methods Echo integration-trawl (EIT) methods Acoustics to assess distribution and abundance of fish Trawls to confirm species, size and age Multiple surveys ( passes ) before and after the start of commercial fishing in late August Sites open (treatment) and closed (control) to fishing
9 Oceanographic Measurements Recent study 4 Moorings CTD and trawl temperature probes Continuous underway SST Satellite images Satellite track drifters deployed throughout the spring and summer Historical surveys Water column profiles along selected transects Mooring 197x
10 Walleye Project history 2000 feasibility study (fishery closed) 2001 full survey 2002 full survey, virtually no fishing effort 2004 full survey 2006 full survey (data being processed)
11 Drifter Track
12 Front separates juvenile and capelin Prey field for sea lions foraging nearshore composed of juvenile
13 2004 Front weakened and capelin/age-0 nearshore Prey field for sea lions foraging nearshore composed of capelin and juvenile High prey diversity has been linked to high sea lion survival
14 Revised Hypotheses 1976/77 Regime shift altered the strength of the mid-trough front allowing intrusion of capelin into nearshore waters. Changes in the species diversity of available prey may have contributed to changes in condition of Steller sea lions. Merrick, R.L., M.K. Chumbley, and G.V. Byrd Diet diversity of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) and their population decline in Alaska; a potential relationship. Can. J. Fish. and Aquatic Sci 54:

38 Conclusions Front separates juvenile and capelin in many (but not all) years Historical data on water column properties suggests that water was slightly cooler at depth Diversity of nearshore species shifted in early 1980s. Mechanism underlying decline in nearshore prey availablity appears to be linked to frontal boundary.
