Trawl Catch and Species Abundance from the 2019 Gulf of Alaska International Year of the Salmon Expedition

This dataset contains fish species abundance data and species-specific biometrics data collected in the Northeast Pacific Ocean using a midwater trawl net. These data were collected as part of the International Year of the Salmon (IYS) High Seas Expedition conducted in February and March 2019, to further improve the understanding of factors impacting salmon marine winter survival. A total of 64 tows were conducted, and for each tow the total species-specific weight and catch were recorded. Taxonomic records were identified to the lowest taxonomic rank possible. Additionally, for some species some individual biometrics were recorded, such as (fork, total, standard and/or mantle) length, weight, sex and age class. Furthermore for salmonids, DNA samples, otoliths, muscle tissue, scales and liver/gonad data were collected for further analysis in Alaskan and UBC labs. The data collected from the trawl aims to improve our understanding of the food web structure.

Estimated lipid content in salmon muscle tissue from the F/V Northwest Explorer collected during the 2022 International Year of the Salmon Pan-Pacific Winter High Seas Expedition

Salmon were caught in April 2022 by the F/V Northwest Explorer during the 2022 International Year of the Salmon Pan-Pacific Winter High Seas Expedition in the North Pacific Ocean. A Fish Fatmeter (DISTELL FFM-692, with a sensor head width of 10cm) was used to estimate percent lipid in the muscle tissue of salmon. Fatmeter measurements were collected during the second half of the survey (stations 11 - 22). Fatmeter measurements were typically collected from all salmon at these stations, except for one station when the battery failed and two stations where there was a misunderstanding of collection protocols. Three independent measurements of muscle lipid were collected on one side of large salmon (pre-dorsal, dorsal, and post-dorsal measurements). Only one or two measurements were possible on smaller salmon to ensure lipid measurements were collected from non-overlapping regions of the body. Internal Fatmeter calibrations were provided by the manufacture for sockeye, coho, and Chinook salmon and lipid estimates for each of these species were based on their species-specific calibrations. Calibrations were not available for chum salmon and therefore sockeye salmon calibrations were used to estimate percent lipid in chum salmon. 

This data package contains the three independent measurements of muscle lipid, as a percentage, as well as each individuals' original ID (as assigned aboard the vessel) and the assigned ID to link the individuals to the Integrated Data Collection (IDC). Please use the assigned ID to join this data set to the IDC for additional specimen information.

NSSA – OCEANS NORTH

Founded in 1963, the Nova Scotia Salmon Association has been a leading volunteer organization promoting the wise management and conservation of our wild Atlantic salmon and trout stocks. The NSSA has 1347 individual members, and 17 affiliate organizations spread from Salmon River, Digby Co., NS to the Margaree River in Cape Breton, NS.  We support our affiliate associations with local issues, but also focus on addressing issues that are of a provincial nature with widespread implications for fish and angling opportunities. We have implemented solution-based programs to address and several of these provincial-scale issues including: acid precipitation (the West River, Sheet Harbour Acid Mitigation Program), habitat loss and degradation (the Adopt-a-Stream Program), the expansion of aquaculture (co-founder of a multi-stakeholder review committee) and engagement in recreational fisheries issues and fish conservation education and outreach programs.

The NSSA has a long history as a leader in partnerships and training to build conservation capacity within community groups. It is our philosophy that collaboration between those in the freshwater restoration community is the best way to address the widespread threats which impact the wild species and spaces in our region.

The water chemistry data in this dataset eminate from a project, led by the Nova Scotia Salmon Association and supported by Oceans North, that was designed to better understand the current distribution of Atlantic Salmon and characterize the quality of habitat along the eastern shore of Nova Scotia. To determine whether the distribution of Atlantic Salmon has changed, we observed the change in status (present/absent) from past electrofishing surveys (up to 2009) to current environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys in 2019. The goals of this project were: (a) to update surveys in freshwater habitat to confirm whether the distribution (number and location of occupied rivers) of Atlantic Salmon in the eastern shore of Nova Scotia has changed since 2009 and (b) to characterize water quality in some eastern shore rivers and link the distribution of Atlantic Salmon to water quality. By doing so, these actions can inform stewardship and restoration activities that support Atlantic Salmon recovery and improve the long-term functioning and health of Nova Scotia’s freshwater ecosystems.
