Length Frequency Analysis

Age and growth of the daggernose shark, Isogomphodon oxyrhynchus, from northern Brazil were determined from 105 vertebral sections stained with alizarin red-S representing 46 males, 52 females and 7 specimens of unknown sex (58.4 to 141 cm-TL) and verified with length–frequency analysis of 1135 specimens (632 females and 503 males, 58–160 cm ). Marginal increments did not show significant differences throughout the year, and it was assumed that one band is formed annually. Different tests provided varying results for growth curve comparisons between sexes; the curves were similar, despite biological differences. von Bertalanffy growth parameters estimated from back-calculated mean lengths, observed mean lengths-at-age and length–frequency analysis were of the same magnitude. Parameters generated from observed length-at-age were chosen for describing growth for the species: L• 171.4 cm, k 0.12 year –1 and t0 –2.612 years. The largest female aged from vertebrae was 12 years old, whereas the largest male was aged at 7 years. Neonates, ~42.3 cm, showed one band in the vertebrae, formed at birth, or soon thereafter. Males are mature at 103 cm or 5–6 years and females at 115 cm or 6–7 years. Resumo. A idade e o crescimento do cação quati, Isogomphodon oxyrhynchus, do norte do Brasil foi determinada usando 105 vértebras seccionadas e coradas com alizarina vermelha-S de 46 machos, 52 fêmeas e 7 exemplares de sexo indeterminado (58,4–141 cm-CT). Análise de distribuição de frequência de comprimentos de 1135 indivíduos (632 femeas e 503 machos, 58–160 cm) foi utilizada como método de verificação. Os incrementos marginais não mostraram diferenças significativas ao longo do ano, assumindo-se que uma banda é formada anualmente. Com diferentes testes, usados para comparar curvas de crescimento entre os sexos, obteve-se resultados conflitantes; o crescimento foi considerado idêntico entre os sexos, apesar das diferenças biológicas entre machos e fêmeas. Os parâmetros de von Bertalanffy estimados do retrocálculo, comprimentos médios observados e da análise de comprimentos foram semelhantes, tendo sido escolhidos para descrever o crescimento da espécie: L• 8171,4 cm; k 0,12 year –1 et 0 –2,612 years. Amaior fêmea cuja idade foi estimada pelas vértebras tinha 12 anos enquanto o maior macho tinha 7 anos. Recém-nascidos de 42,3 cm apresentavam uma banda nas vertebras, formada ao nascer, ou logo depois do nascimento. Machos estão maduros em 103 cm ou 5–6 anos e fêmeas em 115 cm ou 6–7 anos.

Abstract Converting length frequencies into age frequencies is an important component of a fisheries assessment. In this paper we use a length frequency analysis (LFA) to estimate birthdates after converting length data into catch-at-age, and use simulation studies to compare model-selection criteria and to examine the reliability of the resulting estimates. Deviance and an adaptation of the Akaike Information Criterion performed best. LFA results in useful estimates of birthdates and of catch-at-age if reliable length frequency data and estimates of growth parameters are available. The analysis is applied to skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) caught in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean. Although spawning is reported to be seasonal in subtropical waters, the birthdates of the fish caught there were spread uniformly across the year. Young skipjack become vulnerable to fishing mainly in the first quarter of each year. Recruitment of strong year classes did not affect fishery yields equally in the Southwest Atlantic and the Caribbean Sea, so the assumption of a unit western stock for management purposes and the stock structure of skipjack in the Atlantic need further evaluation.

Dinamika populasi merupakan aspek penting sebagai dasar pengelolaan perikanan dan informasi tentang aspek tersebut pada lobster pasir masih minim di perairan Palabuhanratu. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengkaji aspek pertumbuhan, pola rekrutmen, mortalitas dan laju eksploitasi lobster pasir (Panulirus homarus) di perairan Palabuhanratu. Penelitian ini dilakukan periode Juni 2015-Mei 2016 dengan metode sensus. Lobster pasir hasil tangkapan jaring insang dasar dengan jumlah total sampel 483 ekor mempunyai panjang karapas antara 28-100 mm. Pola pertumbuhan berdasarkan hasil regresi linear memperlihatkan allometrik negatif. Hasil analisis menggunakan metode ELEFAN I (Electronic Length Frequency Analysis) menunjukan koefisien pertumbuhan lobster pasir jantan (K = 0,29 per tahun), lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan betina (K = 0,40 per tahun). Rekrutmen terindikasi dua puncak dalam setahun: yaitu pada Februari-Mei dan September-Oktober). Laju mortalitaskarena penangkapan (F) mencapai 1,9-2,2 kali laju mortalitas alami (M). Nilai Lc<Lrmemperlihatkan lobster pasir sudah tertangkap sebelum mencapaiukuran rata-rata mengerami telur atau ukuran kematangan reproduktif. Laju eksploitasi lobster pasir mencapai 32-38% di atas laju eksploitasi optimum, sehingga lobster pasir sudah mengalamieksploitasi yang berlebih.Population dynamics is an important aspect as basic of fisheries management and little information of this aspect for spiny lobster fishery in Pelabuhanratu waters. This research aims to evaluate of growth aspects, recruitment pattern, mortality, and exploitation rate of scalloped spiny lobster (Panulirus homarus) in Palabuhanratu waters. This research was conducted in June 2015 until May 2016 using census method. The size of P. homarus captured using bottom gill-net with total sample 483 specimen was between 28-100 mm carapace lengths (CL). Linear regression showed that growth pattern was negative allometric. The growth coefficient of male (K = 0.29 per year) was found smaller than female (K = 0.40 per year) based on ELEFAN I (Electronic Length Frequency Analysis) method. Recruitment seems to be accrued twice peaks a year (February to May and September to October) and the highest was at February to May. Fishing mortality (F) reached 1.9 to 2.2 times of natural mortality (M). The LcÂLr value showed that female has been caught before reached the average size of bearing eggs or reproductive maturity size. The exploitation rate of spiny lobsters reaches 32-38% above optimum level. This study suggests that the spiny lobster fishery in Palabuhanratu in the state of overexploitation.
