Landings: News & Views from Maine's Lobstering Community
Landings content emphasizes science, history, resource sustainability, economic development, and human interest stories related to
Maine’s lobster industry. The newsletter emphasizes lobstering as a traditional, majority-European American lifeway with an economic and social heritage unique to the coast of Maine. The publication focuses how ongoing research to engage in sustainable, non-harmful, and non-wasteful commercial fishing practices benefit both the fishery and Maine's coastal legacy.
Maine Lobstermen’s Community Alliance (MLCA) started publication of Landings, a 24-page newsletter in January 2013 as the successor of the Maine Lobstermen’s Association (MLA) Newsletter. As of 2022, the MLCA published over 6,500 copies of …
A Study Of The Social And Economic Capacity Of Eastern Maine Fishing Communities: How Can Small-Scale Fishing Communities Participate In Catch Share Programs?, Teresa R. Johnson, Kevin Athearn
A Study Of The Social And Economic Capacity Of Eastern Maine Fishing Communities: How Can Small-Scale Fishing Communities Participate In Catch Share Programs?, Teresa R. Johnson, Kevin Athearn
University of Maine Office of Research Administration: Grant Reports
This study aimed to assess the degree to which small-scale, fishery-dependent communities in eastern Maine can participate in the catch share system for New England groundfish. Catch share programs can take on a variety of forms, including: harvesting cooperatives, individual quotas, individual transferable quotas, or territorial user fishing rights (Holland and Wiersma 2010). In New England the regional Fishery Management Council implemented a catch share program beginning in 2010, known as sectors, where portions of the total allowable catch have been allocated to groups of fishermen. As managers continue to develop catch shares, and stocks hopefully rebuild, it is critical …

Cnh: Collaborative Research: Direct And Indirect Coupling Of Fisheries Through Economic, Regulatory, Environmental, And Ecological Linkages, Andrew J. Pershing, Yong Chen, Jeffrey Runge
University of Maine Office of Research Administration: Grant Reports
The productivity and resilience of fisheries are subject to a multitude of dynamic and interrelated influences that arise from complex coupling of fish populations with the natural and human systems of which they are a part. With few exceptions, fisheries currently are managed independently, ignoring important natural and human linkages among them. The biological productivity, sustainability, and consequently human benefits of complex fishery systems may be substantially increased if these linkages are better understood and if this understanding is applied to management. The American lobster (Homarus americanus), Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) and Northeast multispecies groundfish fisheries in the Gulf of …

ORPC’s marine life monitoring plan has two parts: 1) Fisheries Monitoring and 2) Marine Life Interaction Monitoring.
Collaborative Research: Globec Pan-Regional Synthesis: End-To-End Energy Budgets In Us-Globec Regions, Andrew C. Thomas
Collaborative Research: Globec Pan-Regional Synthesis: End-To-End Energy Budgets In Us-Globec Regions, Andrew C. Thomas
University of Maine Office of Research Administration: Grant Reports
The research addresses the overarching question: are marine food webs leading to fisheries controlled from the top-down, the bottom up, or a combination of the two? To address this question we will (1) compare end-to-end energy budgets of the 4 US-GLOBEC study regions in the context of top-down v. bottom-up forcing, (2) assess the skills of the regional models in capturing basic material fluxes, (3) extract diagnostics from the regional models that will be used to evaluate the effects of climate change and fishing pressure across GLOBEC regions and (4) develop quantitative methods to compare the diagnostics. The major successes …

Assessment Of Sea Lice Infestations On Wild Fishes Of Cobscook Bay, Alexander Jensen
Assessment Of Sea Lice Infestations On Wild Fishes Of Cobscook Bay, Alexander Jensen
Honors College
Sea lice are ectoparasitic copepods on fishes and can negatively impact aquaculture operations. Little work on sea lice, specifically Lepeophtheirus salmonis and Caligus elongatus, has occurred in the northwest Atlantic. This project characterized sea lice infestations on wild fishes in Cobscook Bay during 2012. Trawling, seine netting, and fyke netting occurred from March to November. Netting sites were selected to sample the bay’s three regions: Outer, Central, and Inner Bay. Visual examinations of fish were used to identify wild hosts and characterize sea lice life stage abundances, attachment locations, and infection prevalence and intensity. DNA sequencing was used to …
Investigation Of Early Development And Importance Of Sediment Choice In The Hatchery Production Of Razor Clams, Ensis Directus, Molly P. Flanagan
Investigation Of Early Development And Importance Of Sediment Choice In The Hatchery Production Of Razor Clams, Ensis Directus, Molly P. Flanagan
Honors College
Ensis directus, commonly known as the razor clam, is a bivalve species that lives in temperate sub-polar regions of the Atlantic Ocean. It is an infaunal species found in shallow, subtidal, sedimentary habitats. A recent increase in the market value for razor clams has resulted in heightened interest in the culture of this species. The experimental hatchery at the University of Maine’s Darling Marine Center began work in 2012 to develop improved hatchery and grow-out techniques for this species. For my thesis, razor clam embryos from both spontaneous and controlled spawns were observed via video and still imagery to document …
Diet And Prey Availability Of Sturgeons In The Penobscot River, Maine, Matthew Dzaugis
Diet And Prey Availability Of Sturgeons In The Penobscot River, Maine, Matthew Dzaugis
Honors College
Although vital to the protection and conservation of species listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act, critical habitat of shortnose sturgeon and Atlantic sturgeon in the Penobscot River, Maine have not yet been described. Critical habitat includes food availability as well as the physical characteristics of foraging habitat. To characterize seasonal availability of benthic prey, a ponar grab was used to collect over 125 benthic samples between 21 May and 8 October 2012. Samples were stratified throughout the river and broadly categorized by sediment type. All organisms within samples were identified to the family level. To characterize diet, stomach contents …
Economic Efficiency In Fisheries And Aquaculture, Paul Molyneaux
Economic Efficiency In Fisheries And Aquaculture, Paul Molyneaux
The Catch
Reflection of the author as a worker looking to make the best use of his time and energy. His innate understanding of the principles of ecological economics followed by exposure to the discipline’s advancing theories leads to a revelation regarding the backwards logic of fisheries and aquaculture policy thus far, and the decline in real seafood production.Along with many others, Molyneaux looks to ecological economics to create a new paradigm for sustainable fisheries.
