The sport shrimp fishery in Southeast Alaska has a permit and reporting requirement, which requires users to report on the location, effort, and harvest of their sets. The objectives of this project is to estimate effort and harvest in the sport shrimp fishery of Southeast Alaska.
The noncommercial pot shrimp fishery in Prince William Sound, Alaska has been monitored periodically (2002–2005, 2009–current) with a permit that requires users to report the location, duration, and harvest of their sets. The objectives of this project are to continue to estimate effort and harvest of the noncommercial shrimp fisheries in Prince William Sound and to evaluate the methods used in achieving this goal. New to this operational plan is the Failure to Report process which was implemented by the Alaska Board of Fisheries in March 2022.
Marine boat sport anglers throughout Southeast Alaska target and harvest Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, coho salmon O. kisutch, Pacific halibut Hippoglossus stenolepis, lingcod Ophiodon elongatus, a variety of rockfish species Sebastes spp., and sablefish Anoploploma fimbria primarily during April to September. Angler effort, catch, and harvest data will be collected from late April to early September from returning marine boat anglers at the following ports: Yakutat, Elfin Cove, Gustavus, Juneau, Sitka, Petersburg, Wrangell, Ketchikan, Craig, and Klawock. Harvest sampling will be used to collect biological samples and associated data to estimate the age, length, and genetic composition of the Chinook salmon harvest, and Chinook and coho salmon will be inspected for missing adipose fins, indicating the head should be removed to recover a coded wire tag. Contributions of hatchery and wild coded-wire-tagged stocks (both Chinook and coho salmon) to the sport harvest will be estimated for all sampled ports, and the wild mature component of the Chinook salmon harvest in Division of Commercial Fisheries Salmon District 108 (Petersburg-Wrangell) and District 111 (Juneau) will also be estimated. Biological data from harvested Pacific halibut (lengths), lingcod (lengths and sex), and rockfish (lengths) will be collected from guided and unguided marine boat anglers. The length data will be converted via established species-specific, length-weight relationships to estimate average weights by species and angler type.
The primary objective of the Southeast Coastal Monitoring project (SECM) is to evaluate the status of the pelagic ecosystem, including juvenile salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) and other pelagic fish species, in the northern region of Southeast Alaska. SECM surveys support research on the marine ecology of salmon, provide harvest forecast models for Southeast Alaska pink salmon (O. gorbuscha), and support ecosystem research in the Gulf of Alaska. SECM surveys will occur during monthly intervals from May to July 2021 at twelve principal stations, and will include surface trawl (Nordic 264) sampling for salmon and other pelagic fish species, bongo net sampling for zooplankton, and CTD data collection of temperature and salinity data. In July, sampling will also occur at eight new stations in lower Chatham and Sumner Straits to provide data from new habitats and geographic locations in central Southeast Alaska.

The federal government wastes your tax dollars worse than a drunken sailor on shore leave. The 1984 Grace Commission uncovered that the Department of Defense spent $640 for a toilet seat and $436 for a hammer. Twenty years later things weren't much better. In 2004, Congress spent a record-breaking $22.9 billion dollars of your money on 10,656 of their pork-barrel projects. The war on terror has a lot to do with the record $413 billion in deficit spending, but it's also the result of pork over the last 18 years the likes of: - $50 million for an indoor rain forest in Iowa - $102 million to study screwworms which were long ago eradicated from American soil - $273,000 to combat goth culture in Missouri - $2.2 million to renovate the North Pole (Lucky for Santa!) - $50,000 for a tattoo removal program in California - $1 million for ornamental fish research Funny in some instances and jaw-droppingly stupid and wasteful in others, The Pig Book proves one thing about Capitol Hill: pork is king!
Summarizes the science of climate change and impacts on the United States, for the public and policymakers.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the science related to climate change. It provides policymakers with regular assessments of the scientific basis of human-induced climate change, its impacts and future risks, and options for adaptation and mitigation. This IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate is the most comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the observed and projected changes to the ocean and cryosphere and their associated impacts and risks, with a focus on resilience, risk management response options, and adaptation measures, considering both their potential and limitations. It brings together knowledge on physical and biogeochemical changes, the interplay with ecosystem changes, and the implications for human communities. It serves policymakers, decision makers, stakeholders, and all interested parties with unbiased, up-to-date, policy-relevant information.
