Quantitative Assessment Of Fishing Mortality For Tautog (Tautoga Onitis) In Virginia : Preliminary Report, Geoffrey G. White, James E. Kirkley, Jon A. Lucy
Quantitative Assessment Of Fishing Mortality For Tautog (Tautoga Onitis) In Virginia : Preliminary Report, Geoffrey G. White, James E. Kirkley, Jon A. Lucy
Reports
Tautog (Tautoga onitis) have become a popular food and sport fish from Massachusetts to Virginia over the past ten years. Tautog are a long lived (30 years), late maturing (3-4 years), slow growing species. Although the maximum age recorded in Virginia is 31 years, recent studies have found that over 95% of the population is less than 12 years old (Hostetter and Munroe, 1993; White et aL, 1996). Adult tautog inhabit hard bottom wreck and reef environments, which are limited in Virginia's waters and are easily located and re-located by fishermen. Tautog are known to migrate inshore-offshore in New England …

Estimation Of Relative Abundance Of Recreationally Important Finfish In The Virginia Portion Of The Chesapeake Bay: Annual Progress Report 1996-1997, Patrick J. Geer, Herbert M. Austin
Estimation Of Relative Abundance Of Recreationally Important Finfish In The Virginia Portion Of The Chesapeake Bay: Annual Progress Report 1996-1997, Patrick J. Geer, Herbert M. Austin
Reports
Annual indices of juvenile abundance have been generated from trawl survey data for several species of key recreational importance in the Virginia portion of Chesapeake Bay (spot, croaker, weakfish, summer flounder, black sea bass and striped bass, white and channel catfish) and four species of secondary importance (scup, white perch, northern puffer, and silver perch) for the period 1988-1997. No species has shown a continuous trend during the nine year period, although several species have revealed declines (spot, scup, y-o-y white perch, northern puffer) or increases (Atlantic croaker and striped bass) in recent years. Spot has shown the largest decline …
Evidence Of Widespread Destruction Of Submersed Aquatic Vegetation (Sav) From Clam Dredging In Chincoteague Bay, Virginia, Kenenth A. Moore, Robert J. Orth
Evidence Of Widespread Destruction Of Submersed Aquatic Vegetation (Sav) From Clam Dredging In Chincoteague Bay, Virginia, Kenenth A. Moore, Robert J. Orth
Reports
Beds of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) are important natural resources which are critical habitats for life stages of many commercially and recreationally important species of fish, crabs and shellfish in Virginia. SAV is comprised of rooted flowering plants which have historically grown throughout the Chesapeake Bay and Eastern Shore coastal lagoons in subtidal areas where water depths are less than 6 feet (Orth and Moore 1983). The presence of SAV in an area is indicative of water quality conditions which are low in nutrient enrichment and turbidity (Dennison et al. 1993). Given this relationship between water quality and growth, SAV …

An Investigation Into The Epizootiology Of Hematodinium Perezi, A Parasitic Dinoflagellate In The Blue Crab, Callinectes Sapidus : Final Report, Jeffrey D. Shields
Reports
Hematodinium perezi is a lethal parasitic dinoflagellate that lives in the hemolymph of brachyuran crabs. The parasite is found along the eastern seaboard of the USA where it occurs in epizootics in the commercially important blue crab, Callinectes sapidus. Crab mortalities associated with the disease occur in high salinity waters, typically in poorly draining estuaries. The parasite is prevalent in the seaside bays of the Delmarva Peninsula in the spring and fall, and spreads to the lower reaches of Chesapeake Bay in the fall. In October 1996, the prevalence of the disease along the Virginia portion of the Delmarva Peninsula …

Parasitological Examination Of Wasting Disease In Black Abalone, Haliotis Cracherodii : Final Report, Jeffrey D. Shields, Frank O. Perkins
Parasitological Examination Of Wasting Disease In Black Abalone, Haliotis Cracherodii : Final Report, Jeffrey D. Shields, Frank O. Perkins
Reports
Black abalone in southern California are afflicted with chronic intestinal infections of a rickettsia-like organism that causes a debilitating and fatal withering syndrome. The hematology of withered animals indicated that cellular degradation and apoptosis occurred in tandem with the · decline and catabolism of abalone tissues. Two types of hemocytes were found in the hemolymph. Type I and Type II Hyalinocytes were distinguished by subtle differences in their cytoplasmic vesicles. Densities of both types of hemocytes declined in abundance, and small, presumptive stem cells increased in abundance with the progression of the disease. No circulating granulocytes were present in hemolymph; …

Pfiesteria Task Force : Vims Fish Sampling Data September And October 1997, Virginia Institute Of Marine Science
Reports
Recent fish kills and closures in the Pocomoke River have increased public concern over P.iesteda pjsddda, a microorganism that has been linked to large fish kills in North Carolina. In response to concerns about an unusual number of fish with lesions reported in Chesapeake Bay, especially the Pocomoke River, a Virginia Pfieste1iaTask Force was formed in May 1997. The Task force includes members of the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC), the Virginia Department of Health (VDH), the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), and research scientists from Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), and Old Dominion University (ODU).
