1 Growth & Survival of Salmon at Sea in Response to Competition & Climate Change Greg Ruggerone (NRC), Jennifer Nielsen (USGS), Bev Agler (ADFG) Funding: USGS Global Change Program Moore Foundation AYK SSI
2 Does competition in the Ocean occur among or between salmon species? Growth? Survival? Few survival studies; complicated because high abundance infers high survival; difficult to conduct experiment. Google Earth
3 Hatchery Premise: No Competition 5 billion per year Asia & NA releases into ocean Updated from Mahnken et al. 1998
4 Wild v. Hatchery Chum Abundance: Competition? Wild pink and sockeye salmon increased after mid-1970s Why not wild chum salmon?
5 Competition Controversy Shuntov, Laevastu studies: Many prey in ocean Salmon consume <2% of prey eaten by all nekton All nekton consume <10% of total prey production Salmon do not shoal beyond coastal waters Competition not likely important Correlation & modeling growth studies Multiple species & regions suggest competition Density-dependent growth (adults & juveniles) Few survival studies Effects of reduced size on future production?
6 Bristol Bay Sockeye Salmon Competition with Asian pink salmon Growth Survival Mechanism for AK sockeye salmon increase after 1977 ocean regime shift Increase growth early marine life? Competition?
7 Eastern Kamchatka Pink Salmon Runs, Natural Experimental Control E Kamchatka pink run (Z) 3 Even-numbered years 2 Odd-numbered years Odd-yr mean ± 1 SD = 52 ± 26 million pink salmon Y e a r 100 million Odd-year pink salmon 39x more abundant in Bering Sea (Davis et al. 2005)
8 Overlap of E Kamchatka Pink & Bristol Bay Sockeye salmon Tag Data (K. Myers)
9 Sockeye & Pink Salmon Diet Overlap in Bering Sea, (Davis et al. 2005) Stomach content of sockeye & pink salmon declined 36% & 24%, respectively, in oddyears. Pink Salmon Key prey (squid & fish) declined 27% in sockeye, 7% in pinks. Pink CPUE was 58x greater than sockeye.
10 Salmon Scales Record Growth Across Time & Broad Regions of Ocean
11 Bristol Bay sockeye growth reduced during odd years at sea (2nd & 3rd yrs) Normalized growth (Z) rd year at sea mean = 612 ± 54 µ Odd-numbered year Even-numbered year Year at sea Pinks increase after mid-1970s Ruggerone et al. 2003
12 Smolt to Adult Survival, Survival at sea (%) % -26% Odd 2nd y r Even 2nd y r Odd 2nd y r Even 2nd yr 0 Age 1. Age 2. Freshwater age Ruggerone et al. 2003
13 91 Million Fewer Sockeye, ($482 million loss) Adult sockeye salmon (millions) 10 5 Odd 2nd yr Even 2nd yr 22% loss 0 Egegik Kvichak Naknek Ugashik Nushagak Sockeye salmon stock Ruggerone & Nielsen 2004
14 Abundance of AK sockeye salmon doubled after 1977 Mechanism? Sockeye salmon run (millions) 125 Western AK North America 100 World Y e a r
15 Hypothesis: 1976/77 climate shift led to greater growth at sea & greater survival & abundance. Problems: Few long-term data on salmon prey abundance. Adult size (all species) has declined over time & densitydependence. How do we know if salmon prey increased if adult size has decreased?
16 Test Hypothesis: 1976/77 climate shift led to greater growth at sea & greater survival & abundance. Bristol Bay & Chignik sockeye salmon scale growth
17 Bristol Bay & Chignik Sockeye Broadly distributed in Bering Sea and North Pacific
18 Bristol Bay & Chignik Sockeye Growth: Regime Shift Effect on prey & salmon growth Sockeye scale growth (Z) Years 1 & Shift Regime shift Year 3 & migration Year at sea Bristol Bay & Chignik correlated Ruggerone et al. 2007
19 Sockeye Run Size vs. Growth at Sea, Alaska sockeye run size (millions) (A) (B) Sockeye growth at sea (Z): years 1 & Sockeye growth at sea (Z): year 3 & SWPL y = (SW1&2) (SW3&SWPL) (pink index) (SST), R 2 = 0.56 Ruggerone et al. 2007
20 Climate, Competition & Sockeye Length-at-Age L = (sockeye) -.144(pinks), r 2 =.40 Model residual (mm) (B) 1976/77 Shift 1989 Shift Y e a r Ruggerone et al. 2007
21 Sockeye Length vs Sockeye & Pink Abundance, Sockeye length (mm) Bristol Bay sockeye run (millions) Eastern Kamchatka pink salmon catch (mt) L (mm) = (sockeye) -.170(pink) (period: 77-88) + 4.4(period: 89-03) Ruggerone et al. 2007
22 Conclusions Climate and prey availability are key to salmon survival. Increasing evidence: competition at sea can affect salmon growth & possibly survival. Prey patches & large prey (squid, fishes) may be key to salmon growth.
