Juvenile Finfish And Blue Crab Stock Assessment Program Bottom Trawl Survey Annual Data Summary Report Series Volume 1997, Patrick J. Geer
Reports
The Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) has conducted a trawl survey dating back to 1955. Over the years methods and objectives have varied according to funding sources and state and/or federal mandates. The present thrust of the program is to provide juvenile indices of relative abundance for recreationally, commercially, and ecologically important fish and invertebrates. These measures of juvenile abundance are widely used as a key element in the management of the Atlantic States' coastal fishery resources. Estimates of juveniles ( age-0) have proven to be a reliable and early indicator of future year-class strength. A review of previously …

Development And Implementation Of A Catch And Effort Data Collection System For Monitoring Trends In Fishing Success On Virginia's Artificial Fishing Reefs, 1987-1988, John A. Lucy, Charles L. Barr, William D. Dupaul
Development And Implementation Of A Catch And Effort Data Collection System For Monitoring Trends In Fishing Success On Virginia's Artificial Fishing Reefs, 1987-1988, John A. Lucy, Charles L. Barr, William D. Dupaul
Reports
The basic objective of the study was to identify a core population of recreational fishermen owning private boats and fishing one or more Virginia artificial reef sites (Fig. 1) with some degree of regularity (making a minim4m of two to three reef trips per season). This developing and expanding population of fishing boat comers was to be sampled randomly, by either telephone or fishing log books, to determine fishing effort and catch rates characterizing trips made to specific reef sites during the 1987 fishing season. Examination of the resulting data would provide a basis for determining whether all, or only …

Exchanges Of Carbon And Nitrogen Between Tidal Freshwater Wetlands And Adjacent Tributaries : A Final Report, Iris C. Anderson, Scott C. Neubauer, Betty B. Neikirk, Richard L. Wetzel
Reports
Tidal freshwater marshes are hypothesized to export materials and energy that support primary and secondary production in estuaries, yet there are few data available to test this hypothesis. A major objective of our study was to measure net exchange of carbon between marsh and atmosphere to determine whether biogenic carbon inputs are in excess of those required to produce observed biomass, satisfy the measured accretion rate, and keep pace with the historical rate of sea level rise. To determine whether the marsh exports materials and energy we measured exchanges of nutrients between marsh sediments and overlying water and of nutrients, …

Biomass Of Submerged Aquatic Vegetation In The Chesapeake Bay, Kenneth A. Moore, David J. Wilcox, Robert J. Orth
Reports
Information provided in existing field biomass and ground truth surveys of Chesapeake Bay submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) were quantified along with 1985 to 1996 annual aerial surveys of SAV distribution and abundance to determine the community type and aboveground biomass for each SAV bed mapped in the bay during this 12 year period. Using species identifications provided through over 10,000 SAV ground survey observations the 17 most abundance SAV species found in the bay were clustered into four species associations: ZOSTERA, RUPPIA, POTAMOGETON and FRESHWATER. In addition, monthly aboveground biomass values were assigned to each bed based upon biomass models …

Potomac River Pound-Net Survey, Summers 1996-1997 : 1998 Final Report, Herbert M. Austin, Kevin Hovel, William Connelly, Andrea Goodnight
Reports
The pound net (Fig 1) is a fixed fishing structure that intercepts fish as they migrate up- or down-river. Fish weirs made of stakes were first used by the Native Americans along the east coast of the English Colonies and were the model for the later development of the pound net. Pound nets were first used in New England around 1850; and were subsequently introduced to Long Island in 1855. A Captain Henry Fitzgerald is reported to have erected the first Chesapeake Bay pound net in 1858, but it failed due to its poor construction. No further attempts were made …

Reports
The Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) has conducted a juvenile striped bass seine survey from 1967 through 1973 and from 1980 through the present. The primary objective has been the monitoring of the relative annual recruitment success of juvenile striped bass in the spawning and to the nursery areas of Lower Chesapeake Bay. Initially (1967-1973), the survey was funded by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and when reinstated in 1980 with funding from the National Marine Fisheries Service under the Emergency Striped Bass Study program. Commencing with the 1988 annual survey, support of the program has been jointly …
Bay Scallop Culture, Michael J. Oesterling
Bay Scallop Culture, Michael J. Oesterling
Reports
In the mid-1960s the bay scallop, Argopecten irradians, was identified by scientists at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) as having culture potential for Virginia waters. Mike Castagna at the VIMS Wachapreague Laboratory demonstrated the biological feasibility of culturing bay scallops from egg to market size within a one year period. At that time, culture for scallop meat production was not economically favorable and the need for better grow-out technology precluded further development of this industry in Virginia. With the change in marketing towards a whole, in-the-shell product and improved or alternative grow-out technology, bay scallop culture activities were …
