CSI: cod stomach investigations

August 5, 2013 Canada

CFER is redefining ‘CSI’ to include both cod stomach investigations and commercial stock investigations. This new information on the food web relationships and spatial distributions of fisheries stocks is derived from CFER’s latest research mission aboard the research vessel Celtic Explorer to the south and northeast coasts of Newfoundland and Labrador Shelf waters, where thousands of samples were collected from multiple species. CFER’s data and ongoing analyses contribute to the assessment and management of fisheries resources in this province. @thecoaster

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer. When it comes to the oceans it seems as if it’s about all that the industry connected mega-foundations that support the anti-fishing ENGOs with hundreds of millions of dollars a year in “donations” are interested in controlling.
