    Abstract

    The hockey-stick (HS) stock recruitment relationship (SRR) has been widely used as an empirical alternative to conventional SRRs such as the Beverton–Holt (BH) and Ricker (RI) models. However, the management performance and risks associated with estimating maximum-sustainable-yield (MSY) reference points (RPs) based on HS remain insufficiently understood. This study first defines deterministic and stochastic MSY RPs under the HS model and provides an overview of their properties. We then conduct simulation experiments to investigate the bias and management consequences that arise when MSY RPs are estimated from the HS model (HS-derived MSY RPs) rather than from the true SRR (e.g., BH) across a range of biological and stochastic parameters, with particular focus on scenarios with insufficient data contrast. Our results show that HS-derived MSY RPs tend to exhibit higher bias but lower variance than MSY RPs derived from the true SRR. Management strategy evaluation simulations further reveal that management procedures combining HS-derived MSY RPs with adaptive model learning and some precautionary measures gradually reduce this bias and achieve average spawning biomass and yield that are comparable to those obtained under management based on the true BH SRR. We also show that the management effectiveness of the precautionary measures depends on life-history traits and recruitment variability. These findings indicate that although HS-derived MSY RPs may be biased and require cautious use, combining them with appropriate precautionary measures allows management to remain robust while limiting variability and yield losses. This broadens the range of management options that are available for supporting sustainable fisheries management.

    Abstract

    An assessment of the abundances and their trends is urgently needed for the conservation and management of fishery-targeted and rarely seen cetacean species (FTCS and RSCS, respectively); however, such assessment is often challenging because of the paucity of available data. In particular, the number of sightings is smaller than the general requirement for the reliable estimation of a detection function, and the spatial coverage of many cetacean surveys is insufficient. To address these issues, we propose a Bayesian approach that uses the previous abundance estimation of the same species or a species with similar biological traits as prior information. Therefore, we obtained the latest abundance estimates for six FTCS and two RSCS. For FTCS, we also estimated abundance trends by fitting an exponential population dynamics model with random effects accounting for interannual changes in animal distributions to the posterior samples of the Bayesian abundance estimates. Our approach enables us to (1) facilitate stakeholders’ consensus by maintaining previously agreed abundances while updating the conservation information; (2) identify the species of greater concern and prioritize conservation efforts towards those species; and (3) monitor the abundance and trends of data-limited cetacean species.

  • Towards sustainable use of fishery resources: maximum sustainable yield and biometrics Invited Reviewed

    Fisheries science is one of the disciplines of studying marine and riverine organisms, but it is different from usual biology in that it focuses on how to utilize organisms sustainably as renewable resources. In terms of sustainable use of fishery resources, it is important to make necessary decisions as soon as possible. However, large uncertainty involved with the fisheries data usually leads to inconclusive argument, resulting in inadequate decision making and the risk of collapsing the resource without doing possible measures. In the latter half of the 20th century, an emphasis on fisheries management science moved away from optimality to robustness. In order to achieve robustness against various uncertainties, biometric statistical methods utilizing the power of modern high-speed computers were actively incorporated into the assessment and risk management of fishery resources. This paper introduces how biometric statistical methods have been applied in recent years in fisheries science, especially in the context of recent development of the MSY-based fisheries management in Japan.

    Abstract

    Fisheries management in Japan is currently at a turning point. MSY based reference points have historically been rejected because of impacts on the fishing industry that would result from their adoption. We propose and evaluate a new harvest control rule (HCR) that uses the biological reference points based on sustainable yield from the stochastic hockey-stick stock recruitment relationship. Management strategy evaluation simulations conditioned on data from Japanese stocks demonstrate that the new HCR avoided recruitment overfishing while providing stable and near maximum catch. The new HCR outperformed Japan’s traditional HCR in terms of conservation, and it outperformed an alternative HCR which is widely used around the world in terms of initial catch reduction and future catch variation. For forecasting and hindcasting simulations, the new HCR showed considerable improvements over traditional HCRs in terms of biomass and catch. This new management procedure can improve the current and future status of many overfished stocks in Japan as well as increase economic efficiency and better protect ecosystems.

    Behavioral classification and observational error correction methods are often needed when analyzing mammal behavior using GPS. The switching state-space model (SSSM) has been proposed for this problem. However, various positioning intervals have been used to attempt to balance the research purposes and battery life of the GPS. Thus, we may come to different conclusions regarding the appropriate positioning intervals using the same analysis. In this study, we used Asiatic black bear (<i>Ursus thibetanus</i>) behavior data. We generated various time interval positioning data from the real positioning data, to verify the effect of the interval on the SSSM estimates. By combining the SSSM with activity sensors, we can classify the behavior into transiting, resting, and foraging, using 5- to 120-minute intervals. Moreover, time-spatial scales (which recognize the core area) increased as the positioning interval increased. We compared the relative moving distances for the different positioning intervals. Our analysis of the habitat selection performed better using short positioning intervals of 30 minutes or less. We expect that new knowledge will be obtained by applying SSSM with short interval positioning data (e.g., at 5- to 30-minute intervals).

    Recently, conflicts between Asiatic black bears (<i>Ursus thibetanus</i>) and humans are increasing as bears expand their distribution. However, little is known about the biology of bears inhabiting near settlements. We fitted GPS collars on 7 bears during 2010–11, and by fitting the Switching State-Space Model, we smoothed error-prone GPS tracks and categorized bear behavior into transit, active stay, and inactive stay. Additionally, we investigated habitat characteristics by exploring active-stay core areas. On the whole, bears lived near settlements in summer and more distantly from settlements in autumn. However, there were exceptional bears staying more distantly in summer and near settlements in autumn. Near settlements, bears mainly foraged <i>Juglans mandshurica</i> and <i>Castanea crenata</i> in late summer and <i>Diospyros kaki</i> in autumn. In distant areas, bears foraged ants and <i>Prunus</i> spp. in late summer and <i>Quercus mongolica</i> in autumn. Bears' nocturnal activity became higher near settlements. Our results indicated that bears come close to settlements in particular seasons according to seasonal changes in food availability. Bears were more likely to be near settlements if there were intensively distributed foods derived from humans nearby.

    Most of cetacean species are highly migratory and difficult to keep in captivity so that it is not easy to grasp precise status of the populations. On the other hand, the limitation of the management based on single species has been recognized and the demand on the ecosystem-based population assessment and management has been increasing over the world. It is important to know the status of the population precisely and accurately as far as we can in ecosystem-based approach. To extract information efficiently from the data in which a lot of uncertainty exist and grasp the status of the population precisely and accurately, the use of statistical models is essential. This paper focuses on population assessment of marine mammals and develops some statistical models. Furthermore, the competition between marine mammals and fishery is investigated using an ecosystem model. Marine mammals are one of the important top-predators in an offshore ecosystem. The information on the distribution, migration, and stock structure is therefore indispensable to the construction of the offshore ecosystem model. In addition, the degree that the biological resource is affected by the catch greatly varies with the assumption of the stock structure in the procedure developed by the International Whaling Commission (IWC) for the management of large baleen whales. The regression analyses based on the generalized linear and additive models are useful for modeling the complicated phenomena such as the temporal-spatial structure of biological resources. In this paper, the spatial distribution and seasonal changes of the density of the western North Pacific minke whales was estimated using the generalized additive model so that there was no evidence that multiple stocks exist in the western North Pacific. On the other hand, the seasonal change of the density reproduced the aspect of migration of the minke whales well. The investigation of temporal-spatial distribution of biological resources using the regression models can be extensively useful for other species other than marine mammals. Line transect sampling is a standard method for estimating the population size of marine mammals. One of the important assumptions in standard line transect sampling is that all animals on the trackline are detected without fail. However, the surfacing-diving behavior of marine mammals for respiration and feeding can lead to failures in detection even if they are on the trackline. As a result, the population size tends to be underestimated. Although the underestimation of the population size brings conservative effect on single-species management, it leads to another problem in ecosystem approach because the impact by consumption of predator is underestimated. Conventional methods for estimating the detection probability on the trackline have several problems. The flexible method developed in this paper modified and improved such problems. Simulation studies showed that the method is promising. In addition, it was confirmed that the present method is able to be applied to real data sets using Antarctic minke whales data. The prey-predator interaction is extremely important in ecosystem modeling. If we can know preference of animals in laboratory, we can estimate diet composition of animals non-lethally by putting the information on the preference and the availability of animals obtained from sighting survey together. Preference for multiple food items can be measured in the laboratory by choice tests like cafeteria trials, in which an animal is initially offered a variety of foods that are equally available at the same time. However, the results of the multiple-choice experiments can be affected by many factors such as placement, amounts of foods, and the length of time that the experimental animal is permitted to eat. An alternative way to determine multiple-preference is to repeat a series of paired comparisons. The paired comparisons have an advantage over the multiple-choice tests because the design of each trial is simpler so that the conditions of the experiment can be easily controlled. The data collected from paired comparisons can be analyzed with the Bradley-Terry model. However, conventional Bradley-Terry model has some defects; for instance, it is not able to deal with the amount of consumption. This paper proposes a modification of the estimation method used in the Bradley-terry model. The maximum likelihood estimation based on a binomial distribution in the original model is replaced with the nonlinear least squares method. Furthermore, some simple methods to estimate the precision of parameters and to test several hypotheses on preferences are provided. The methods were applied to the analysis of food preference of a captive northern fur seal. The comparison between the method and the conventional Bradley-Terry model indicated that the statistical power of the method can be higher than the conventional one. Finally, the ecosystem model off ...

    The analysis of paired comparison experiments with frequency data such as win-loss records is usually dealt with using the Bradley-Terry model, wherein the number of wins is supposed to have a binomial distribution. This assumption of probability distribution is inappropriate and inconvenient in quantitative analysis with continuous variables such as preference tests of consumers in biology. In this paper, a practical method is proposed to apply the Bradley-Terry model to the repeated pair-comparison experiments with quantitative data. It is obtained by the nonlinear least squares method under the assumption of the additive normal error structure. Some simple methods for the estimation of precision and for the hypothesis testing are also given. An application to the food preference test of a captive northern fur seal suggests the validity and advantage of the method.

    We developed a new approach to deal with vertical migration of wild animals using a combination of state-space model and mixture model. This approach enables us to know what factor affects the migration pattern of wild animals. Simulation tests showed that the model could provide accurate estimation of parameters of interest. However, for the applied study using the real migration data, the general trend of migration patterns on whole population was vague due to great difference in individual migration patterns.

    We compiled an electric database on Japanese fisheries off Tohoku area for 1952-2006.Analysis of the data revealed historical changes in total catch and its diversity, which showed reversed patterns to each other related to the alternation of dominant fish species. Mean trophic level of the catch did not show drastic historical fall, contrary to the"Fishing down"hypothesis asserted by some environmentalists. Analyses of northern fur seal stomach content data and gonad tissue stable isotope ratios indicated long-term shifts in diet composition and trophic level of the top predator, and resultant changes in marine food web structure.
