1999 Economic Status of the Groundfish Fisheries off Alaska

The domestic groundfish fishery off Alaska is an important segment of the U.S. fishing industry. This report presents data which summarize various aspects of the economic performance of the fishery. Generally, data are presented for the domestic groundfish fishery for 1995 through 1999. Limited catch and ex-vessel value data are reported for earlier years in order to depict the rapid development of the domestic groundfish fishery in the 1980s and to provide a more complete historical perspective on catch. Pacific halibut (Hippoglossus stenolepis) is not included in this report because for management purposes halibut is not part of the groundfish complex.

1999 Survey of Juvenile Salmon in the Marine Waters of Southeastern Alaska

In 1999, biophysical data were collected along a primary marine migration corridor of juvenile (age-.0) Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) in the northern region of southeastern Alaska at 24 stations during five sampling intervals. This survey marks the third consecutive year of systematic sampling and monitoring within the region, and was implemented to identify the relationships among the habitat use, marine growth, predation, stock interactions, year-class strength, and ocean carrying capacity of salmon. Stations were stratified into three different habitats—inshore (Taku Inlet and three stations near Auke Bay), strait (four stations each at Chatham Strait and Icy Strait), and coastal (four stations each at Cross Sound, Icy Point, and Cape Edward)—and were sampled from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ship John N. Cobb, May to October. At each station, fish, zooplankton and surface water samples, and temperature and salinity profile data were collected during daylight using a surface rope trawl, conical and bongo nets, and a conductivity, temperature, and depth profiler.
