“Ecosystem based fisheries management (EBFM): the Aegean Sea case study”
Donna Dimarchopoulou
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
Wednesday, September 21, 2022
2:30 pm – 3:30 pm
SMAST East, Rooms 101/102
and via Zoom
Abstract:
Shifting marine ecosystems call for holistic management strategies to minimize potential negative impacts of overfishing and other human-induced stressors on habitats and biodiversity, the economy and food security. EBFM requires that decision making should be based not only on the characteristics of particular commercial stocks, but on all components of the ecosystem. Consequently, a complete fisheries management view would require a combination of both conventional single-species approaches and a more holistic consideration of the ecosystem that takes into account the effects of multi-species interactions, environmental parameters and fishing practices. The Ecopath with Ecosim modeling suite has been a widely used tool in the context of EBFM to describe exploited marine food webs and perform temporal and spatial simulations to analyze the impact of fishing activities and environmental drivers on aquatic ecosystems. Single-species stock assessments have revealed the bad status and overexploitation of data-poor Greek stocks, results also corroborated by ecosystem model simulations. Model predictions have indicated that rebuilding of stock biomass is possible with a reduction in total fishing effort combined with the implementation of marine protected areas. Identifying and filling data gaps is needed to reduce uncertainty and increase model performance and predictive capacity, thus facilitating the progress towards such more holistic modeling and management approaches. Here, the basic concepts and terminology of EBFM will be discussed through the case study of the Aegean Sea, Greece, eastern Mediterranean Sea.

Seminar Announcement
“Straddling the fence in North Carolina; climate change and the unique biogeography of a large seagrass ecosystem in the western Atlantic Ocean “
Dr. Jud Kenworthy
Retired
NOAA
Wednesday, September 21, 2022
12:30pm – 1:30 pm
SMAST East, Rooms 101/102
and via Zoom
Abstract:
With nearly 2.5 million acres of surface waters, coastal North Carolina has the second largest estuarine ecosystem on the U.S. Atlantic coast. Uniquely located at the biogeographic transition zone between temperate and tropical ecosystems, these coastal waters have both temperate (Zostera marina) and tropical (Halodule wrightii) seagrass species living at their respective “edge of ranges”. While recent surveys indicate that these are currently the largest and healthiest seagrass meadows on the Atlantic seaboard, stressors associated with climate change threaten the status of this ecosystem. This location in the western Atlantic Ocean is one of several global hotspots where poleward-flowing western boundary currents are forecast to warm faster than the global average. This, along with predictions of local sea level rise can affect the growth, distribution, abundance, and reproduction of seagrasses. My presentation addresses the unique resilience characteristics of this seagrass ecosystem and how it is poised to respond to both climate and anthropogenic disturbances.
