Enhancing Fisheries Management with High-Resolution Chlorophyll-a Data

The OC instrument provides high-resolution chlorophyll-a concentration data to improve primary productivity estimates for ecosystem-based fisheries management. It enhances forecasting and warnings of Harmful Algal Blooms, leading to better catches and fisheries management. Photos from NOAA and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute illustrate the impact on Menhadan catch and responses to Algal Blooms.

Presentation Transcript

  1. UAV Ocean Color Measurements The OC instrument provides high resolution chloraphyll-a concentration data. Improves estimates of primary productivity for ecosystem-based management of fisheries (Slide A) Improves forecasting and warnings of Harmful Algal Blooms (Slide B)

  2. Menhadan Catch (Slide A) Photo NOAA gallery Improved estimates of primary productivity can translate directly to better catches, such as this large catch of Menhaden (Atlantic)

  3. Fish Kill from a harmful Algal Bloom (Slide B) Photo Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute

  4.  Therefore we can manage fisheries better with improved information
