| Summary: | This cruise was dedicated to salmon survey in the North Pacific, but its scientific program was cancelled due to COVID-19 outbreak on board of the ship on the way to the Bering Sea. No data are expected. Original cruise plans are as follows. Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) is one of the most important fishery resources in the North Pacific. Japanese research vessels have monitored the condition of Pacific salmon stocks since 1952. The current R/V Hokko maru was launched in 2004 and the salmon research cruise using a surface trawl in the summer Bering Sea has been carried out since 2007. The main objective for this cruise is to conduct the annual monitoring survey for Japanese chum salmon (O. keta) stocks in the Bering Sea known as their major feeding ground. A positive correlation between annual CPUE of immature chum salmon in each research cruise and a subsequent harvest along Japanese coasts of the corresponding blood-year stocks has found in most cases to date, suggesting the possibility to predict ... |
