S5: CCCC/MODEL Topic Session (½ day)
Modeling climate and fishing impacts on fish recruitment

Co-Convenors: Jacob Schweigert (Canada) and Yury I. Zuenko (Russia)

To model the state of fish populations, both individual growth and the population number are necessary. Recently the PICES MODEL Task Team has generalized ecosystem models for the North Pacific, and applied the prototype model of lower trophic models (NEMURO) for the growth of individual fish, at present Pacific saury and herring. However, the same developments were not implemented at the fish population level. Clearly, the abundance depends strongly on reproductive success and fish survival during early life stages, and these are, in turn, affected by the environment. This session will review existing models and related scientific knowledge on fish recruitment under varying environmental conditions, and create a foundation for their incorporation in the ecosystem model for the North Pacific and its regions.
