The fishery of the Bay of Bengal (BOB) is assumed to be suffering from the overexploitation. This paper aims to assess the sustainability of current level of fishing effort as well as possible changes driven by anthropogenic and climate driven factors. Therefore, the commercial marine fishery of BOB for the period of 1985/86 to 2007/08 is analyzed by applying Gordon-Schaefer Surplus Production Model on time series of total catch and standardized effort. Static reference points such as open-access equilibrium, maximum economic yield, and maximum sustainable yield are established. Assumptions about potential climatic and anthropogenic effects on r (intrinsic growth rate) and K (carrying capacity) of BOB fishery have been made under three different reference equilibriums. The results showed that the fishery is not biologically overexploited; however, it is predicted to be passing a critical situation, in terms of achieving reference points in the near future. But, on the other hand, economic overfishing started several years before. Higher fishing effort, and inadequate institutional and legal framework have been the major bottlenecks for the proper management of BOB fisheries and these may leads fishery more vulnerable against changing marine realm. Thus, the present study calls for policy intervention to rescue the stock from the existing high fishing pressure that would lead to depletion.

This research evaluated fisheries reference points and stock status to assess the sustainability of the croaker fishery (Sciaenidae) from the Bay of Bengal (BoB), Bangladesh. Sixteen years (2001–2016) of catch-effort data were analyzed using two surplus production models (Schaefer and Fox), the Monte Carlo method (CMSY) and the Bayesian state-space Schaefer surplus production model (BSM) method. This research applies a Stock–Production Model Incorporating Covariates (ASPIC) software package to run the Schaefer and Fox model. The maximum sustainable yield (MSY) produced by all models ranged from 33,900 to 35,900 metric tons (mt), which is very close to last year’s catch (33,768 mt in 2016). The estimated B > BMSY and F < FMSY indicated the safe biomass and fishing status. The calculated F/FMSY was 0.89, 0.87, and 0.81, and B/BMSY was 1.05, 1.07, and 1.14 for Fox, Schaefer, and BSM, respectively, indicating the fully exploited status of croaker stock in the BoB, Bangladesh. The representation of the Kobe phase plot suggested that the exploitation of croaker stock started from the yellow (unsustainable) quadrant in 2001 and gradually moved to the green (sustainable) quadrant in 2016 because of the reduction in fishing efforts and safe fishing pressure after 2012. Thus, this research suggests that the current fishing pressure needs to be maintained so that the yearly catch does not exceed the MSY limit of croaker. Additionally, specific management measures should implement to guarantee croaker and other fisheries from the BoB.

Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis), should be managed properly because even though it is renewable, natural resources can be depleted. One approach in managing fish resources is by modeling. The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum sustainable yield, the level of utilization and effort of skipjack tuna. Data on catches as well as catch efforts of skipjack tuna were collected from 9 fisheries year books of Luwu Kabupaten (District). The surplus production model used is the Schaefer, Fox, Walter & Hilborn model. Schaefer model obtained by MSY = 1541.08 tons and Fopt = 243 trips; Fox model obtained maximum sustainable yield value (YMSY) of 1602,244 tons, maximum sustainable fishing effort (fMSY) of 303 units and maximum sustainable CpUE value (UMSY) of 5.29 tons trip-1; the Walter & Hilborn model found potential stocks of sustainable reserves (Be) skipjack in Luwu district amounted to 935.72 tons year-1. Utilization rates of the skpjack tuina indicate the fish is still under exploitation.

This research activity took place in Manado City, North Sulawesi Province with activities centered on the Tumumpa Fishery Harbor (PPP). The data were recorded from capture fisheries activity conducted in the Sulawesi Sea and its surroundings landed in the Tumumpa Fishery Harbor. The purpose of this study was to analyze the stock value and Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) of pelagic fish in the Sulawesi Sea based on the approach of the surplus production model (Model Schaefer). This research is expected to be used as a consideration in the management of pelagic fish stocks in the Sulawesi Sea, and can be used as a basis for further research. This research uses secondary data collection method in the form of statistical document and record available. The data taken, including fish catch and fishing effort or effort (trip), from 2012 to 2016 (5 years). The results show that production value is inversely proportional to the value of effort, where the value of production from 2012 to 2016 has decreased every year, while the value of effort from 2012 to 2016 has increased. This condition indicates that the presence of pelagic fish stocks in the Sulawesi Sea and surrounding areas has been and is experiencing a decline that impacts on the decrease of production every year with a large percentage and this condition also indicates the occurrence of potentially overfishing. The value of MSY utilization of capture fishery resources in the Sulawesi Sea based on Tumumpa Fishery Harbor data were 16,305.45 tons / year for HMSY and 1,664,59 trips / year for EMSY, with TAC of 13,044.36 tons / year.Keywords :  Capture fishery, MSY, Pelagic, Surplus Production Model, Tumumpa ABSTRAK Kegiatan penelitian ini berlangsung di Kota Manado, Provinsi Sulawesi Utara dengan kegiatan berpusat di Pelabuhan Perikanan Pantai (PPP) Tumumpa Manado.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis nilai stok dan Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) ikan pelagis di Laut Sulawesi berdasarkan pendekatan model produksi surplus (Model Schaefer). Penelitan ini diharapkan dapat digunakan sebagai bahan pertimbangan dalam pengelolaan stok ikan pelagis di Laut Sulawesi dan sekitarnya, serta dapat digunakan sebagai dasar untuk penelitian selanjutnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pengumpulan data sekunder berbentuk dokumen. Data yang diambil adalah data tangkapan ikan dan upaya penangkapan ikan atau effort (trip), dari tahun 2012 sampai dengan 2016 (5 Tahun). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan nilai produksi berbanding terbalik dengan nilai effort, di mana nilai produksi dari tahun 2012 sampai 2016 mengalami penurunan setiap tahunnya, sedangkan nilai effort dari tahun 2012 sampai tahun 2016 mengalami peningkatan. Kondisi yang terjadi ini mengindikasikan bahwa keberadaan stok ikan pelagis di Laut Sulawesi dan sekitarnya telah dan sedang mengalami penurunan yang berdampak pada penurunan produksi setiap tahun dengan persentase yang cukup besar di mana kondisi ini mengindikasikan terjadinya overfishing. Nilai MSY pemanfaatan sumber daya perikanan tangkap di Laut Sulawesi berdasarkan data PPP Tumumpa Manado sebesar 16.305,45 ton/tahun untuk HMSY, dan 1.664,59 trip/tahun untuk EMSY, dengan TAC sebesar 13.044,36 ton/tahun.Kata Kunci: Perikanan Tangkap, MSY, Pelagis, Model Produksi Surplus, Tumumpa

Maximum sustainable yield (MSY), fishing effort (fmsy) and total allowable catch (TAC) of major fishery in the Passur River, Bangladesh were estimated using surplus production model (Schaefer and Fox model) with observation-error estimator based on four years (2011-2014) catch and effort data. Fox model was especially highlighted in this study; the estimated value of MSY was 4.61 kg with corresponding fmsy of 13.51 units (200m2SBN/day). Moreover, the mean value of MSY and TAC with 95% confidence interval in stochastic method was 4.53 kg and 4.08 kg respectively with the 13.22 units of fishing effort (fmsy). The overall results provide clear evidence that the fishery of the Passur River is being overexploited in the months from December to March. Sustainable exploitation of this stock can be assured through reducing present fishing effort. In addition, TAC might be incorporated along with several existing fisheries management measures to ensure the compensation of this stock towards long term sustainability. Bangladesh J.

The theory of maximum sustainable yield (MSY) underpins many fishery management regimes and is applied principally as a single species concept. Using a simple dynamic biomass production model we show that MSY can be identified from a long time series of multi-stock data at a regional scale in the presence of species interactions and environmental change. It suggests that MSY is robust and calculable in a multispecies environment, offering a realistic reference point for fishery management. Furthermore, the demonstration of the existence of MSY shows that it is more than a purely theoretical concept. There has been an improvement in the status of stocks in the Northeast Atlantic, but our analysis suggests further reductions in fishing effort would improve long-term yields.

We present the first quantitative review of the stock status relative to the stock biomass (B) and the exploitation rate (U) that achieved the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) (BMSY and UMSY, respectively) for 37 Japanese stocks contributing 61% of the total marine capture production in Japan. BMSY and UMSY were estimated by assuming three types of stock-recruitment (S-R) relationships and an age-structured population model or by applying a surplus production model. The estimated stock status shows that approximately half of the stocks were overfishing (U/UMSY &gt; 1), and approximately half of the stocks were overfished (B/BMSY &lt; 0.5) during 2011–2013. Over the past 15 years, U decreased and B slightly increased on average. The rate of decrease in the U of the stocks managed by the total allowable catch (TAC) was significantly greater than that of the other stocks, providing evidence of the effectiveness of TAC management in Japan. The above statuses and trends were insensitive to the assumption of the S-R relationship. The characteristics of Japanese stocks composed mainly of resources with relatively high natural mortality, i.e. productivity, suggest that Japanese fisheries have great potential of exhibiting a quick recovery and increasing their yield by adjusting the fishing intensity to an appropriate level.

LADI BEATRIEX DEENG. Determination of Utilization and Management Status of Bonito (Auxis Rochei) Caught in South Bolaang-Mongondow and East Bolaang-Mongondow Waters of North Sulawesi. Supervised by Mr. JOHN S. KEKENUSA as main supervisor, and Mr. HANNY A. H. KOMALIG as co-supervisor.Bonito (Auxis rochei), needs to be managed properly because even though it is a renewable biological resource, it can experience overfishing, depletion or extinction. One way to approach the management of fish resources is by modeling. The analysis was carried out aiming to determine the status of utilization and management of bonito and maximum sustainable yield (MSY) using the Surplus Production Model. Data on catching and efforts to catch bonito is collected from the Marine and Fisheries Service of South Bolaang-Mongondow Regency and East Bolaang-Mongondow of North Sulawesi. The surplus production model that can be used to determine the catch of bonito is the Schaefer model. The maximum sustainable catch of bonito is 869.556 tons per year, obtained at the level of catching effort of 933 trips. For 2017 the level of utilization is 64.95 % so that production can still be increased, with a level of effort of 73.74 % indicating the level of effort that is not optimal and can still be increased. Keywords : Bonito, Surplus Production Model, South Bolaang-Mongondow and   East Bolaang-Mongondow Regency
