Frequent Questions—Snow Crab and Salmon Declines in Alaska

NOAA Fisheries answers questions about what is behind the declines in snow crab and salmon and how we are addressing them.

Faster turnaround times and integrated new data shed light on salmon bycatch dynamics in Alaska

A major effort to modernize genetic analysis workflow yields a clearer picture of salmon bycatch that can help managers make science-based decisions to ensure sustainable fish populations, fisheries, and fishing communities.

Collaborative Marine Salmon Research Foundational for Understanding Climate Change Impacts and Bycatch

NOAA Fisheries is involved in a number of research partnerships with State scientists, the commercial fishing industry, Alaska Native communities, and other organizations to support state management of salmon and U.S. international treaty obligations.

Alaska Ecosystem Monitoring and Assessment

By understanding the relationship between fish species and their marine environment, we are able to enhance the accuracy of our fish stock estimates.

Northeastern Bering Sea Ecosystem Assessment

The fishery and oceanographic survey in the Northeastern Bering Sea combines surface trawl and midwater acoustics to collect indices on fish size, relative abundance, energetic status, distribution, and diet.

Southeastern Bering Sea Ecosystem Assessment

The fishery and oceanographic survey in the southeastern Bering Sea combines surface trawl and midwater acoustics to collect indices on fish size, relative abundance, energetic status, distribution, and diet.

Salmon Research In Alaska

Pacific salmon play an important role in Alaska’s marine ecosystems and are a valuable commercial, recreational, and subsistence resource. NOAA Fisheries scientists forecast salmon harvests, assess the impact of commercial fisheries on salmon, and evaluate how salmon populations respond to environmental changes. The information we provide helps managers make science-based decisions to ensure sustainable fish populations, fisheries, and fishing communities.
