Early Life-History Implications Of Selected Carcharhinoid And Lamnoid Sharks Of The Northwest Atlantic, Steven Branstetter
Early Life-History Implications Of Selected Carcharhinoid And Lamnoid Sharks Of The Northwest Atlantic, Steven Branstetter
VIMS Books and Book Chapters
The size of most newborn sharks makes them susceptible to predation from their own kind and other large fishes. In the northwestern Atlantic, juvenile nursery grounds can be generally classified according to whether or not the young are exposed to such predatory risk. Several related factors-breeding frequency, litter size, size at birth, early growth rate-may help offset early natural mortality. These factors are counterbalanced by the different species in several different ways, producing numerous early life history strategies. In general, slow growing species are either born at relatively large sizes or use protected nursery grounds, whereas faster growing species tend …

The Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council (Council) has primary responsibility for the development ofihe Western North Atlantic Shark Fishery Management Plan (FMP). Currently, there is a consensus among the five East Coast Councils that an FMP for sharks should be prepared. The current concerns focus on many of the same issues that were germane a decade ago when a shark FMP was initiated and then halted mainly because of inadequate information. These issues include 1) an expanded, nondiscriminant, commercial longline fishery ; (2) an existing and rapidly expanding recreational fishery; (3) concern for the extensive waste which occurs from both recreational …

From executive summary: "This document provides information pertinent to: 1) creating an industrial park within Winona's flood dikes by filling a drained wetland with dredged sand from Lake Winona, 2) deepening the east basin of Lake Winona by dredging, thus improving the shallow eutrophic lake and providing the necessary fill for the industrial park, and 3) mitigating the loss of wetland within the industrial park by restoring degraded wetlands adjacent to Lake Winona."
