Because ecosystem overfishing seems unlikely, stock status is mostly acceptable, and aggregate biomass trends appear stable, the decline in commercial landings is most likely driven by market dynamics affecting the landings of surfclams and ocean quahogs, as quotas are not binding for these species. Climate change also seems to be shifting the distribution of surfclams and ocean quahogs, resulting in areas with overlapping distributions and increased mixed landings. Given the regulations governing mixed landings, this could become problematic in the future and is currently being evaluated by the Council. --- ## Objective: Commercial Profits ![:img decreasing arrow icon, 2%](EDAB_images/decrease.png) ![:img below average icon icon, 2%](EDAB_images/below long term ave.png) <!--  Risk element: <span style="background-color:orange;">CommRev</span>, unchanged--> .pull-left[ Indicator: Commercial Revenue .reduced_opacity[ <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-17-1.png" width="360" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> .contrib[ Key: Black = Revenue of all species combined; <p style="color:#FF6A6A;">Red = Revenue of MAFMC managed species</p> ] Recent change driven by benthos ] Monitor changes in climate and landings drivers: <!-- - Climate risk element: <span style="background-color:orange;">Surfclams</span> and <span style="background-color:red;">ocean quahogs</span> are sensitive to ocean warming and acidification. --> - Surfclams and ocean quahogs are sensitive to ocean warming and acidification. - pH in surfclam summer habitat is approaching, but not yet at, pH affecting surfclam growth ] .pull-right[ Indicator: Bennet--price and volume indices .reduced_opacity[ <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-18-1.png" width="504" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-19-1.png" width="540" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> ] ] ???

Changes in recreational fleet diversity can be considered when managers seek options to maintain recreational opportunities. Shore anglers will have access to different species than vessel-based anglers, and when the same species, typically smaller fish. Many states have developed shore-based regulations where the minimum size is lower than in other areas and sectors to maintain opportunities in the shore angling sector. --- ## Objective: Stability ![:img no trend icon, 2%](EDAB_images/no trend.png) ![:img near average icon icon, 1%](EDAB_images/near long term average.png) <!--  Risk elements: <span style="background-color:lightgreen;">FishRes1</span> and <span style="background-color:lightgreen;">FleetDiv</span>, unchanged, add recreational elements? --> .pull-left[ *Fishery* Indicators: Commercial fleet count, fleet diversity <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-23-1.png" width="504" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> ] .pull-right[ *Fishery* Indicators: commercial species revenue diversity, recreational species catch diversity <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-24-1.png" width="504" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-25-1.png" width="504" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> ] --- ## Objective: Stability ![:img mixed trend icon, 2%](EDAB_images/Mixed trends.png) ![:img near average icon icon, 1%](EDAB_images/near long term average.png) <!--  Risk element: ecological diversity put aside, new indices--> .pull-left[ *Ecological* Indicators: zooplankton and larval fish diversity .reduced_opacity[ <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-26-1.png" width="504" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-27-1.png" width="504" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> ] ] .pull-right[ *Ecological* Indicator: expected number of species, NEFSC bottom trawl survey <img src="20220118_Plenary1_Gaichas_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-28-1.png" width="504" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /> Implications: * stable capacity to respond to the current range of commercial fishing opportunities * recreational catch diversity maintained by a different set of species over time * monitor zooplankton diversity driven by declining dominant species ] ???
