2019 Gulf Of Alaska Ecosystem Status Report: In Brief

The Gulf of Alaska experienced unusually warm conditions in 2019. This followed the extreme marine heatwave of 2014–2016 (known popularly as “The Blob”) and a return to more typical temperatures during 2017 and 2018.

2019 Eastern Bering Sea Ecosystem Status Report: In Brief

The eastern Bering Sea experienced the second year of low sea ice conditions during winter 2018/2019 due to (1) residual heat in the Chukchi Sea in fall of 2018 and (2) anomalous winds from the south in February 2019 causing ice retreat.

2018 Assessment of the Sablefish Stock in Alaska

The longline survey abundance index increased 9% from 2017 to 2018 following a 14% increase in 2017 from 2016. The lowest point of the time series was 2015. The fishery catch-rate/abundance index stayed level from 2016 to 2017 and is at the time series low (the 2018 data are not available yet). Spawning biomass is projected to increase rapidly from 2019 to 2022, and then stabilize.

2018 Status of Alaska Marine Ecosystems Considerations - Gulf of Alaska

The goals of the Ecosystem Status Reports are to: (1) provide stronger links between ecosystem research and fishery management and (2) spur new understanding of the connections between ecosystem components by bringing together the results of diverse research efforts into one document. Beginning in 2016, we split the report into four separate documents, one for the Gulf of Alaska, Aleutian Islands, eastern Bering Sea, and the Arctic.
