Report of Working Group 26 on Jellyfish Blooms Around the North Pacific Rim: Causes and Consequences by Shinʼichi Uye,Richard D. Brodeur Pdf

"The Working Group on Jellyfish Blooms around the North Pacific Rim: Causes and Consequences (WG 26) was established in October 2010 at PICES-2010 in Portland, Oregon, USA, in the face of growing recognition of a global increase in jellyfish populations. The objectives of the WG were to: 1) review past and ongoing studies on bloom-forming jellyfish being conducted somewhat independently (or nationally) in each PICES member country in order to assess the general trend of jellyfish populations in the North Pacific and its marginal seas, 2) identify causes for recurrent jellyfish blooms, and 3) understand their ecological and socio-economic impacts. The final goal was to forecast future jellyfish population trends and associated impacts in the PICES region and to provide recommendations for reducing their negative impacts"--Page ix.

Jellyfish Blooms: Causes, Consequences and Recent Advances by Kylie A. Pitt,Jennifer E. Purcell Pdf

Jellyfish form spectacular population blooms and there is compelling evidence that jellyfish blooms are becoming more frequent and widespread. Blooms have enormous ecological, economic, and social impacts. For example, they have been implicated in the decline of commercial fisheries, they block the cooling water intakes of coastal industries and ships, and reduce the amenity of coastal waters for tourists. Blooms may be caused by overfishing, climate change, and coastal pollution, which all affect coastal waters around the world. Jellyfish Blooms: Causes, Consequences and Recent Advances presents reviews and original research articles written by the world’s leading experts on jellyfish. Topics covered include the evolution of jellyfish blooms, the impacts of climate change on jellyfish populations, advances in acoustic and molecular methods used to study jellyfish, the role of jellyfish in food webs and nutrient cycles, and the ecology of the benthic stages of the jellyfish life history. This is a valuable resource for students and professional marine biologists, fisheries scientists, oceanographers, and researchers of climate change.

Report of Working Group 23 on Comparative Ecology of Krill in Coastal and Oceanic Waters Around the Pacific Rim by North Pacific Marine Science Organization. Working Group 23 on Comparative Ecology of Krill in Coastal and Oceanic Waters around the Pacific Rim Pdf

"This final report from WG 23 contains summary reports from each PICES member country that highlight past and ongoing research on euphausiids (Section 3). Most countries do not have research projects specifically targeting euphausiids, so the data come from a variety of other sampling efforts which makes the amount of data available even more remarkable. Data from the North Pacific Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) survey (Section 4) are presented separately from the summary reports since they comprise samples from the waters of several PICES member countries. Modeling efforts used to parameterize euphausiids and explore their role in coastal and open-ocean food chains are discussed in Section 5. The last section highlights other successful activities of WG 23, including international collaborations and a protocol for conducting live experiments on euphausiids. The membership of WG 23 throughout its active period is listed in Appendix 1. The appendices also include a set of equations for converting among the different methods of measuring euphausiid length (Appendix 2) and an example of the questionnaire distributed to krill experts internationally (Appendix 3). More details of the working history of WG 23 can be found in its Annual Reports (Appendix 4) and the PICES Press article about the Krill Biology and Ecology Workshop held during the 2009 GLOBEC Open Science Meeting (Appendix 5)."--Page 1.

Report of the PICES/ICES Working Group on Forecasting Climate Change Impacts on Fish and Shellfish by North Pacific Marine Science Organization. PICES/ICES Working Group on Forecasting Climate Change Impacts on Fish and Shellfish,North Pacific Marine Science Organization Pdf

"In 2008, the North Pacific Marine Science Organization (PICES) and the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) approved the formation of an interdisciplinary Working Group on Forecasting Climate Change Impacts on Fish and Shellfish (WG-FCCIFS). This Working Group was designed to enagage the PICES and ICES scientific communities in an effort to discuss and assess our current understanding of the implications of climate change on marine fish and fisheries. The group was quite active, and the products of WG-FCCIFS include one major scientific symposium, a symposium volume and several peer reviewed journal articles. WG-FCCIFS's primary accomplishments and research findings are described in this report. The group promoted research on climate change impacts on marine ecosystems by scientists in PICES and ICES member countries through coordinated communication, exchange of methodology, and organization of meetings to discuss and publish results. In collaboration with relevant expert groups in PICES and ICES, WG-FCCIFS developed frameworks and methodologies for projecting the impacts of climate change on marine ecosystems, with particular emphasis on shifts in the distribution, abundance and production of commercial fish and shellfish. WG-FCCIFS members met to review the results of designated case studies to test methods. Given the limitations of our forecasts, they also explored techniques for estimating and communicating uncertainty in forecasts and strategies for research and management under climate change scenarios. As the 3-year term for WG-FCCIFS approached, it was clear that PICES and ICES were well positioned to serve as world leaders in advancing science on assessments of climate change impacts on marine ecosystems. This recognition led to the formaton of the ICES Strategic Initiative on Climate Change Effects on Marine Ecosystems (SICCME), referred to as the Section on Climate Change Effects on Marine Ecosystems (S-CCME) within PICES."--Executive summary.

Jellyfish Blooms: Ecological and Societal Importance by J.E. Purcell,W.M. Graham,Henri J. Dumont Pdf

`Jellyfish', a group that includes scyphomedusae, hydromedusae, siphonophores and ctenophores, are important zooplankton predators throughout the world's estuaries and oceans. These beautiful creatures have come to public attention as featured exhibits in aquaria and in news headlines as invaders and as providers of genes used in biomedical research. Nevertheless, jellyfish are generally considered to be nuisances because they interfere with human activities by stinging swimmers, clogging power plant intakes and nets of fishermen and fish farms, and competing with fish and eating fish eggs and larvae. There is concern that environmental changes such as global warming, eutrophication, and over-fishing may result in increased jellyfish populations. The literature reviews and research papers in this volume explore the interactions between jellyfish and humans. Papers cover the medical aspects of jellyfish stings, jellyfish as human food and jellyfish fisheries, interactions of jellyfish and fish, effects of environmental changes on jellyfish, effects of introduced ctenophores on the Black Sea ecosystem, factors causing increases or concentrations of jellyfish, and others aspects of jellyfish ecology. This is an important reference for students and professional marine biologists, oceanographers, fishery scientists, and aquarists.

Jellyfish Blooms IV by Jennifer Purcell,Hermes Mianzan,Jessica R. Frost Pdf

Jellyfish generally are considered to be nuisances because they interfere with human activities by stinging swimmers, clogging power plant intakes and nets of fishermen, killing fish in aquaculture pens, and being both predators and competitors of fish. There is concern that environmental changes such as global warming, eutrophication, over-fishing, and coastal construction may benefit jellyfish populations. During this past decade following the first Jellyfish Blooms volume, some species have bloomed more frequently, expanded their range, and caused more problems for humans. Mnemiopsis leidyi, the ctenophore that invaded the Black Sea in the 1980s and damaged fisheries, now also blooms in the North, Baltic, and Mediterranean seas. Nemopilema nomurai, a giant Asian jellyfish, has bloomed frequently during this decade, causing severe damage to the Japanese fishing industry. Jellyfish Blooms: Interactions with Humans and Fisheries is the fourth volume in this series. Syntheses and original research articles address the question if jellyfish have increased globally and what factors may have contributed to the abundance of jellyfish. This volume is the most extensive to date, containing papers from all continents (except Antarctica) on scyphozoans, hydrozoans, cubozoans, staurozoans, and ctenophores, and on the fate of jellyfish blooms. This is a key reference for students and professional marine biologists, oceanographers, and fishery scientists and managers. Previously published in Hydrobiologia, vol. 690, 2012​
