Session 3. Population dynamics, trophic interactions and management of cephalopods in the North Pacific ecosystems

Co-Convenors: John Field (U.S.A.), Yasunori Sakurai (Japan) and Mikhail Zuev (Russia)

Invited Speakers:
Mary Hunsicker (Oregon State University, U.S.A.)
Chingis Nigmatullin (AtlantNIRO, Russia)
Mitsuo Sakai (National Research Institute of Far Seas Fisheries, Japan)

In most coastal and oceanic ecosystems, cephalopods are or can be an influential driver of food web dynamics due to their rapid growth, high population turnover rates. They also represent a major, and apparently growing, fraction of total catches, both in the Northern Pacific and throughout the world’s oceans. In contrast to the generally slower population response rates of most finfish, cephalopod populations tend to exhibit boom-bust cycles, challenging traditional management strategies. As events along the West Coast of the United States and Canada have shown, they may also represent highly visible indicators of ecosystem change, and both the causes and the consequences of the jumbo squid range expansion on the California Current ecosystem are questions of growing interest as a result. This session will focus on the ecology and management of cephalopods in North Pacific ecosystems, specifically on the known or suspected drivers of population dynamics, and applied or potential management strategies that are (or may be) robust to such dynamics. Papers on the role of cephalopods within marine ecosystems, particularly with respect to trophic interactions and the strategic management of marine ecosystems (e.g., the role of cephalopods as forage versus fisheries targets, or as competitors for species targeted by commercial fisheries), are highly encouraged.
