The New CalCOFI and Fisheries

摘要: The future of CalCOFI includes new roles to play and the incorporation types information derived from ocean observing systems. An important role is contributions Ecosystem Based Management (EBM). involvement in historical development ecosystem science helps inform that can an Integrated Assessment (IEA) for California Current System. I first define terms EBM, IEA Coastal Marine Spatial Planning, before discussing how contribute Management. indicators state be approached many ways, but offers a unique opportunity develop fishery-independent System, both because length quality time series, remarkable taxonomic resolution ichthyoplankton database. assemblage data provide about spatial temporal variability system combined with indices based on physical oceanography. will much more specific than do uni-variate temperature, or large-scale climate related ENSO, PDO, NPGO. Ocean systems incorporating gliders, moorings, satellites combination high-resolution models increasing future.
