Extractions: Overview Estuarine and Coastal Processes Fisheries and Aquaculture Environmental Technology Marine Biotechnology Marine Policy Public Outreach, Education, and Extension Projects Fisheries and Aquaculture WHOI Sea Grant has identified both the area of revitalizing our nation's fisheries and the area of development of sustainable aquaculture as priority areas that fit within the capacity of the academic and research environment within the region served by our program. It is our belief that these two priority areas are very closely linked technologically and culturally within New England and thus we are approaching these areas as a unified and coordinated effort. The program elements include: (1) development of technology and programs to promote stock enhancement of natural fish and shellfish resources, including mechanisms to evaluate the efficacy of enhancement programs and the overall effectiveness of such programs; (2) investigation of larval recruitment processes for fish and shellfish and development of means to understand the relationship between recruitment and physical and chemical characteristics of the environment;

Identify, develop, and deliver scientifically based information on critical living marine resource issues, through an enhancement of information, research, and technology exchange, productive interactions, and program coordination among Sea Grant programs, state and federal fisheries managers, Universities, and the commercial/recreational fishing industries in state and federal waters off of South Carolina and the region. South Carolina contains 2,876 miles of tidal shoreline, 10,000 square miles of continental shelf, 500,000 acres of tidal bottoms, and 504,450 acres of salt marsh (representing 20 percent of the East Coast total). In addition, its coastline is characterized by over 165 linear miles of beaches and dotted with more than 40 barrier and sea islands. Five major estuaries help drain major watersheds originating from as far away as western North Carolina. The dense areas of highly fertile salt marsh surrounding these estuaries and scattered barrier islands along the coastline provide a favorable habitat for many important commercial and recreational species during their juvenile and adult life stages. The commercial shrimp fishery is the largest and most economically valuable commercial fishery in South Carolina.

http://www.wsg.washington.edu/outreach/mas/fisheries/fisheries.html

Extractions: Commercial fishing continues to be a significant industry in Washington state, with nearly three billion pounds of fish and shellfish harvested annually, worth more than $1.6 billion at the wholesale level. Commercial fishing is also one of the highest-risk industries in the United States, but few harvesters are trained in the use of safety equipment or emergency procedures, and few training programs are available. Meanwhile commercial fisheries around the world are collapsing, and efforts in fisheries science are turning more to conservation of resources and finding ways to harvest fish stocks in a sustainable manner. Washington Sea Grant Program's Marine Advisory Services address fishing industries in a variety of ways: provide training classes, workshops, and testing for safety certifications; provide education and technical assistance on seafood handling, quality control, safety and use; conduct applied research projects to maximize the use of fisheries resources through control of bycatch.

http://www.wsg.washington.edu/outreach/mas/aquaculture/crab.html

Extractions: The European green crab (Carcinus maenas) is a small shore crab (adults measure about 3'' across) whose native distribution is along the coasts of the North and Baltic Seas. Although known by the common name of green crab, color is not its distinguishing feature. The shell (carapace) color can vary widely. Juveniles can change color to match their surroundings. Adults are generally dark greenish with yellow markings. The underside is often bright red or yellow. The crab is an effective forager, adept at opening bivalve shells. In California, it has caused losses as high as 50% in Manila clam stocks. It preys on numerous other organisms, making these crabs potential competitors for the food sources of native fish and bird species. The recent arrival of the green crab on the U.S. West Coast is cause for concern. The green crab has already invaded numerous coastal communities outside of its native range, including South Africa, Australia, and both coasts of North America. An able colonizer and efficient predator, this small shore crab has the potential to significantly alter any ecosystem it invades. It has been blamed for the collapse of the soft-shell clam industry in Maine. The green crab could threaten Dungeness crab, oyster and clam fisheries and aquaculture operations in the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia. First seen in San Francisco Bay in 1989, the green crab moved southward to Monterey Bay and northward to Humboldt Bay, California; Coos Bay, Oregon and into many Oregon estuaries. Green crab were sighted in Willapa Bay and Grays Harbor, Washington, and on the west coast of Vancouver Island, in 1998 and 1999.

http://www.seagrant.umn.edu/fish/oil.html

Extractions: by Paul B. Addis, Ph.D. INTRODUCTION The discovery that fish oil may have unique benefits in the fight against coronary heart disease has stimulated a tremendous amount of research which this publication summarizes. Although the subject is complex, the study of fish oils is very worthwhile because it provides a totally new perspective on the relationship of diet to coronary heart disease. THE BENEFITS OF FISH OIL Fish oil has many names. One of the most common is omega-3 fatty acid or its scientific abbreviation, N-3 . N3 fatty acids are found mostly in fish, but are contained in other foods as well. Fish oil is the best food source of these fatty acids. The primary benefit of N-3 fish oil is the reduction of platelet activity (blood clotting) and plaque formation which in turn can prevent heart attacks. Here's how it works. Platelets are clot-forming blood cells which prevent excessive bleeding. Overly active platelets, however, may speed the build-up of plaque, a deposit of fatty or fibrous material which narrows a blood vessel wall. Elevated blood cholesterol also contributes to the acceleration of plaque formation. When plaque narrows an artery it is easier for a blood clot to get stuck in the artery and this can cause a heart attack. Because platelets also form blood clots, this is likely to occur. That's why it is desirable to reduce platelet activity and why N-3 fatty acid, fish oil, is beneficial.

Extractions: ALTERING MANAGEMENT PRACTICES WILL REDUCE PCB LEVELS "Study challenges Current Fisheries Management Practices with Serious Health and Financial Implications" November/96 New York Sea Grant recently conducted a study of contaminants in fish tissue and the uptake of PCBs in relation to stocking size. Sea Grant scientists have found that by changing certain fisheries management practices, PCBs can be reduced in fish tissue. An obvious and radical departure from the feds new program to stock larger lake trout of 10-12 to the pound, these studies may have serious health and fiancial implications. US FWS, the Great Lakes Fishery Commission and a few other elitists have long promoted lake trout as the preferred dominant open water species of the Great Lakes. These new studies may or at least should, make them a little more uncomfortable about their lake trout restoration project. Stocking fish that are younger and smaller, so that contaminant uptake is lower during the first few years will reduce PCB levels. In one study a 45% stocking size reduction of lake trout lead to an 18% reduction of PCB levels. Alewives, a more contaminated prey, are not as vulnerable to predation from small predatory fish.
