    Description: As part of the research programs performed yearly at the Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo Pesquero (INIDEP, Mar del Plata, Argentina) some important basic data about the commercial fisheries usually included in internal reports are registered. This formal paper is a review and summary of size and age composition estimates of commercial catches (discards included) of Northern Argentine anchovy (34ºS-41ºS) obtained between 1990-2011. The basic data resulting from the examination of 521 samples from fishing vessels included 62,466 fish length measurements and 26,667 valid age readings from which the corresponding 22 annual age-length keys were built. The annual estimates of the individual total length-total weight relation parameters and of mean weight-at-age are also reported. The results are considered relevant as they are the basic input required in the age structured indirect models used to evaluate the state of the fish population.
    Description: Como parte de la programación anual de investigaciones del Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo Pesquero (INIDEP, Mar del Plata, Argentina) se registran algunos datos básicos importantes acerca de las pesquerías comerciales que usualmente se incluyen en informes técnicos internos de la Institución. En el presente trabajo formal se revisan y compendian estimaciones sobre la cantidad de ejemplares por clase de longitud y grupo de edad, incluyendo descartes, que habrían sido capturados anualmente en la pesquería de anchoíta bonaerense (34º S-41º S) durante el período 1990-2011. Los datos básicos, que resultaron del examen de 521 muestras de embarcaciones pesqueras, incluyeron la medición de 62.466 ejemplares y el registro de 26.667 lecturas de edad válidas con las que se construyeron las correspondientes 22 claves longitud-edad anuales. Se consignan, además, las estimaciones anuales de los parámetros de la función longitud total-peso total individual y de los pesos medios por edad. Los resultados se consideran relevantes porque constituyen la información básica que requieren los modelos indirectos estructurados por edad que se utilizan para evaluar el estado de la población.

    Description: Chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) landings corresponding to November 2003-January 2004 and November 2004-January 2005 fishing seasons were analyzed at the Mar del Plata port (Argentina, SW Atlantic). Fourty one samples were taken to measure total length exclusively and 4 sub-samples to record individual data (total length, weight, sex, sexual stage, age according to otoliths reading). Total length ranged 20-50 cm (1 and 8 years old). The most abundant sizes, between 32-37 cm, corresponded to ages 3 and 4, respectively. Most of the fish caught were adult (95%) and mature (85%) specimens. Length-weight, length-age relations were calculated and length-growth, weight-growth parameters estimated. The catch per unit of effort, of high variability (0-2,455 kg h-1), decreased as sea surface temperature increased. To estimate the species biomass in the fishing area a research cruise was carried out between 17-20 December 2004. Measurements, obtained with acoustic methods, reached a total of 11,678 t. The highest concentrations were found at a temperature of around 17.4 ºC and salinity of 33.62 psu. During the acoustic tracking, unusual concentrations of anchovy for the season were detected.
    Description: En el puerto de Mar del Plata (Argentina, Atlántico SO) se analizaron los desembarques de caballa (Scomber japonicus) correspondientes a las temporadas de pesca noviembre 2003-enero 2004 y noviembre 2004-enero 2005. Se tomaron 41 muestras para medir la longitud total exclusivamente y 4 submuestras para registrar datos individuales (longitud total, peso, sexo, estadio gonadal, edad según lectura de otolitos). La longitud total fue de entre 20-50 cm (1 y 8 años de edad). Las clases de talla más frecuentes, de entre 32-37 cm, correspondieron a las edades 3 y 4, respectivamente. Los principales componentes de las capturas fueron individuos adultos (95%) y maduros (85%). Se calcularon las relaciones talla-peso y talla-edad y se estimaron los parámetros de crecimiento en longitud y en peso. La captura por unidad de esfuerzo, de gran variabilidad (0-2.455 kg h-1), disminuyó a medida que aumentó la temperatura de superficie del mar. Con el fin de estimar la biomasa de la especie en el área de pesca se llevó a cabo una campaña de investigación entre el 17 y el 20 de diciembre de 2004. Las mediciones, obtenidas con métodos acústicos, alcanzaron un total de 11.678 t. Las mayores concentraciones se encontraron a una temperatura de alrededor de 17,4 ºC y salinidad de 33,62 ups. Durante el recorrido acústico se detectaron importantes concentraciones de anchoíta, inusuales para la época.

    Description: Results obtained during a research cruise carried out along the coastal area of Mar del Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina) in November 1999 are presented. The objective of the research cruise was to estimate chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) abundance with acoustic methods and establish its relation to the hydrographic conditions. The information gathered was complemented with data of catches obtained by a commercial vessel that operated simultaneously in the study area. Environmental data from other research cruises and satellite information were also taken into account to obtain contemporary sea surface temperature and wind speed and direction data. The main species of catches of the research cruise and commercial vessel were horse mackerel (Trachurus lathami) and anchovy (Engraulis anchoita). No chub mackerel was detected during the acoustic assessment; however, the species was caught by the commercial vessel in the southern part of the study area and near the thermohaline front. Chub mackerel yields were very low if compared to those regularly recorded in the area and time the purse-seine fleet operates and that are typical of an advanced fishing season (January). The advection of estuarine waters from the de la Plata river, conditioned by the winds field, generated the displacement of low salinity waters over the coastal area that surpassed the regular southern limits. The positive anomalies of sea surface temperature in the region, that reached values close to 3 °C, could have caused the partial exclusion of chub mackerel in the coastal region of Mar del Plata.
    Description: Se presentan los resultados obtenidos durante una campaña de investigación llevada a cabo en el área costera de Mar del Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina) en noviembre de 1999. El objetivo de la campaña fue estimar la abundancia de caballa (Scomber japonicus) con métodos acústicos y establecer su relación con las condiciones hidrográficas. La información recopilada se complementó con los datos de captura de una embarcación comercial que operó simultáneamente en la zona de estudio. Se utilizaron, además, datos ambientales de otras campañas de investigación e información satelital para obtener datos contemporáneos de la temperatura del mar en superficie y de la velocidad y dirección del viento. Las principales especies de las capturas de la campaña de investigación y de la embarcación comercial fueron surel (Trachurus lathami) y anchoíta (Engraulis anchoita). Durante la evaluación acústica no se detectó caballa; sin embargo, la embarcación comercial obtuvo capturas en la región sur del área de estudio y en las cercanías del frente termohalino. Los rendimientos de la especie fueron muy bajos si se los compara con los que se registran habitualmente en el área y la época en que opera la flota de rada y que son típicos de una temporada de pesca avanzada (enero). El aporte de aguas estuariales del Río de la Plata, condicionado por el campo de vientos, generó un movimiento de aguas de baja salinidad sobre el área costera que superó los límites australes normales. Las anomalías positivas de la temperatura del mar en superficie en la región, que alcanzó valores cercanos a 3ºC, pudo causar la exclusión parcial de la especie en el área costera marplatense

    Description: Advise on Biologically Allowable Catch (BAC) for Southern Argentine anchovy (Engraulis anchoita, 41° S-48° S) during 2012. To assess the evolution since 1990 and the current status of Argentine anchovy Southern stock, an Age Structured Population Model (ASPM) was used. Modeling of catches according to a four-month period pulses allowed to predict annual yields so as to get them close to the nominal catches officially recorded. Some independent indexes of stock abundance (eight acoustic estimates of total biomass and five estimates of spawning stock biomass obtained with the Daily Egg Production Method) and the proportion of individuals per age group assessed during the same cruises were used to calibrate the fitting. No stock-recruitment function but a mean recruitment allowing for some annual deviations was estimated. The model was implemented through an AD Model Builder code. According to the year, stock abundance during the reproductive season ranged 1.0-2.2 million tons, with an average of 1.36 million. The theoretic mean recruitment was estimated at 140,640 million fish (C.V. = 14.6%). The annual fishing mortality rate, averaging 0.006, reflected the low exploitation level of the resource. Biological Reference Points (RP) based on a spawning stock biomass per recruit (SSB/R) analysis were determined as F66 = 0.70 and F40 = 2.2. The spawning stock biomass SSB66 = 468,000 t would represent the Target Reference Point for the stock, with the Limit RP calculated at 287,000 t, and the current SSB (December 2011) at 711,800 t. The estimate of total stock biomass at the beginning of the last year of actual fishing was 1,470,400 t (standard deviation = 507,480 t). Said parameters were used as starting values to evaluate the future status of the stock under different, increasing values of fishing mortality and to perform a risk analysis. If the Harvest Control Rule proposed in this paper was observed, the BAC for southern anchovy could be represented by the 226,000 t predicted for the 2012 F66 rate that would imply, besides, a low risk of decrease of spawning stock biomass below the SSB40 limit level. Nevertheless, the proportion of juvenile anchovies in catches would increase sharply. For that reason and the uncertainty about estimates arising from the lack of recent direct estimates and the low current exploitation of the stock, as advised in previous years and officially established, a Total Allowable Catch of 100,000 t for 2012 is suggested.
    Description: La evolución desde 1990 y el estado actual de la población de anchoíta patagónica se evaluaron mediante un Modelo de Producción con Estructura de Edades (MPEE), buscando que las capturas predichas, modeladas según pulsos cuatrimestrales, se aproximaran a los registros estadísticos. Se auxilió el ajuste mediante indicadores independientes de la abundancia del stock (ocho valores de biomasa total evaluada acústicamente, y cinco estimaciones de biomasa de reproductores efectuadas mediante el método de producción diaria de huevos), y mediante las proporciones por grupo de edad estimadas en las campañas acústicas antes mencionadas. No se estimó función stock-recluta alguna, sino un reclutamiento medio a partir del cual se permitieron ciertos alejamientos anuales. El modelo se implementó mediante un código para AD Model Builder. La abundancia total de la población en la época de reproducción habría variado entre 1,0 y 2,2 millones de toneladas, según el año, promediando 1,36 millones. El reclutamiento medio teórico fue de 140.640 millones de ejemplares (C.V. = 14,6%), y las tasas anuales de mortalidad por pesca, que promediaron 0,006, reflejaron la ligera explotación del recurso. Efectuando un análisis de biomasa reproductiva por recluta se determinaron los Puntos Biológicos de Referencia que correspondieron a F66 = 0,70 y F40 = 2,2. La biomasa de reproductores BR66 = 468.000 t, constituiría el Punto de Referencia Objetivo para esta población, calculándose el Punto Límite en 287.000 t, y la BR en diciembre de 2011 en 711.800 t. A partir de la estimación de la biomasa total presente a inicios del último año con pesca (1.470.400 t, con desviación estándar = 507.480 t) se realizaron proyecciones de la población y análisis de riesgo asociados a tasas crecientes de mortalidad pesquera. Según una Regla de Control de Capturas propuesta en el presente trabajo, podrían tomarse como captura biológicamente aceptable las 226.000 t predichas para la tasa F66 durante 2012, que además implicarían un riesgo bajo de que la biomasa reproductiva en este año cayera por debajo del nivel límite BR40. No obstante, la proporción de anchoítas juveniles en las capturas aumentaría rápidamente. Por este motivo, además de la incertidumbre en las estimaciones asociada a la falta de evaluaciones directas recientes y al modesto nivel actual de explotación, se sugiere mantener para 2012 la recomendación de 100.000 t como captura máxima de anchoíta patagónica, tal como se aconsejó en años anteriores y fue adoptado oficialmente.

    Description: Chub mackerel caught by the commercial fleet in El Rincón (39°-41° 30’ S) and Mar del Plata (38° S) areas was analyzed. In 2001 and 2002 samples from El Rincón were obtained from landings or collected by scientific observers on board the commercial ships. Samples from Mar del Plata were acquired during the 2001-2002 and 2002-2003 fishing seasons, on board two vessels of the small purse-seine fleet. Landings were mostly adults and only a small fraction of juveniles was observed (〈 5%). Length growth parameters from El Rincón samples were estimated, and length-weight and length-age relationships were fitted by Least Squares. The results were as follows: L(mm) = 538.4; k (years-1) = 0.122; t0 (years) = -4.92; Pt = 4*10-7 * Lt 3.536. Natural mortality was estimated at 0.30 and age limit at 10 years. The standardized catch per unit effort (CPUE) annual mean (kg h-1) for the 1990-2002 period was calculated by means of a General Linear Model which justified 41% of total variance. The most significant variables resulted to be the seasonal pattern of exploitation of the resource (month), and its pronounced concentration in the exploitation area (fishing position). Values of the standardized CPUE annual mean fluctuated with trends that were similar to those registered between 1993 and 2002. Due to fluctuations in the Chub mackerel abundance and the possible negative effect caused by the activity of large ships in El Rincón, a maximum annual catch of 13,000 t for 2003 is suggested for this area as a precautionary measure.

    Description: Between September 1st and 6th a research cruise was carried out in the Buenos Aires shelf area of "El Rincon" 39°40'-41°30'S, Argentine Sea SW Atlantic. The total area studied was 2,527.8 nautical mile2. Knowledge of the commercial fleet location at the time of the survey allowed to intensify sampling in a 'miniarea' of 52,8 nautical mile2. The acoustic assessment of chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) biomass was 49,511.9 t, 94 of which corresponded to this last area. Fish samples coming from fishing trawls included only adult individuals of 240-460 mm total length (TL) and ages ranging 2-11 years. The limit age was estimated at 13 years and natural and total mortality rates at 0.23 and 0.54, respectively. Oceanographic conditions were those typical of the winter season, characterized by the vertical homogeneity of the water column in temperature and salinity. The isotherms and isohalines distributed parallel to the 50 m isobath with values progressively decreasing from the coast towards the slope. Salinity values allowed to detect two hydrographic regimes: that of the San Matias Gulf 33.8-34.4 located to the West and covering more than half of the study area and the one of the Shelf Waters 33.5-33.79 occurring towards the East. A positive gradient in chlorophyll a concentration was observed in N-S sense and from the coast towards the shelf break. The highest densities of phytoplankton, with dominance of diatoms, were observed in the southern sector. Low concentrations of Alexandrium tamarense and Prorocentrum minimum, two potentially noxious dinoflagellates, were detected. The highest zooplankton biomass associated to the highest salinity values and salinity gradients, represented mostly by Calanoides cf. carinatus, was also detected in the southern sector. The western sector, influenced by the San Matias Gulf regime and characterized by high densities of both, phytoplankton and zooplankton, may constitute a potentially favourable feeding ground for chub mackerel.

    Description: The chub mackerel Scomber japonicus and anchovy Engraulis anchoita commercial landings at the Mar del Plata (Buenos Aires prov., Argentina) seaport during the September 1999-January 2000 period are studied. A total of 14 chub mackerel samples were taken for total length measurements exclusively and 5 anchovy sub-samples and 1 chub mackerel sub-sample were analyzed to record individual data total length, weight, sex, sexual stage, age from otoliths readings . Most of the fish caught for both species were adults and only a small fraction of chub mackerel juveniles was found in December 1999. Length-at-fifty-percent-maturity was calculated, length-weight and length-age relationships were fitted and length growth parameters estimated. Sea surface temperature SST in the fishing area was recorded on board of a sampling boat. Chub mackerel CPUE, that showed a decrease when SST increased, was calculated. Data from landings of the different fleets for both species as well as the significance of these resources to the small purse-seine fleet economy were analyzed.

    Description: Data obtained by observers on board of two fishing vessels during six trips carried out between January-April 2010 to catch tuna were analyzed. Thirty-four fishing days were completed and of the 59 trawls performed 37 turned out positive (with tuna catches). The fishing gear consisted of a purse seine net. Exploitation took place within the Argentine-Uruguayan Common Fishing Zone, between 36° S-39° S. The main landings occurred in March and consisted of slender tuna, Allothunnus fallai (57%), followed by albacore, Thunnus alalunga (28.5%), in January and bonito, Sarda sarda (14%), in April. Sea surface temperature ranged 16 °C-19 °C. A total of 25 length frequency samples allowed to measure individuals of the species above mentioned and those of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis). During fishing operations the death of some magellanic penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus) and soft-plumaged petrels (Pterodroma mollis) as well as catch of anchovy (Engraulis anchoita) were registered

    Description: Length growth parameters were calculated and total length-weight and total length-fork length relationships, which showed no differences between sexes, were fitted for the South Atlantic bream (Seriolella porosa). Length at first maturity was also calculated. The results were as follows: L (mm)= 490.96k years-¹) = 0.154; t0 (years)= -3.915; W(g) = 4*10-6)*TL³.1989; FL(mm) = 0.8917*TL1.0006);L sub 50 (mm)= 290.61. Natural mortality was estimated at 0.274 and limit age at 11 years. Samples were taken during research surveys carried out in 1999 and 2000 in the Argentine Sea (Atlantic SW). Sagittae otoliths of 374 specimen were used for age determination. Total fish length ranged from 226 mm to 550 mm (1-14 years). Commercial landing data of trawl fleets for the period 1990-2000 were analyzed. Catch per unit effort (CPUE) (kg/h) was calculated and standardized using a General Linear Model. All the variables considered in the analysis year, month, fishing rectangle, fleet and horse power were significant. The CPUE showed an increasing tendency through the years.
