2 Model structure Tuna habitats Parameters to be estimated General scheme of the model with optimization approach Physical environment Biological input Fishing data NPZD Chlorophyll 3-layer data: Temperature (GCM), currents (GCM) Oxygen (Levitus) Six forage components: epi-pelagic Migrant and non-migrant meso-pelagic Migrant,non-migrant and highly migratory bathypelagic Pole-and-line: tropical and sub-tropical gears Purse seine: WCPO associated and unassociated fleets WCPO associated and unassociated fleets TADR tuna model Eqns for 0-3 month old juveniles: spawning, foraging, passive transport, survival, mortality, cannibalism Eqns for 1-16 quarter old adults: recruitment, foraging, migrations, ageing, natural and fishing mortality Optimization: Preliminary sensitivity analysis Constructing cost function according to data distribution minimization, parameter estimation and errors. Predictions Tuna spatial distributions, catches and length frequencies time series Estimates of model parameters Management applications I. Senina, J. Sibert, P. Lehodey

3 Model structure Tuna habitats Parameters to be estimated Tuna habitat description 3 types of habitats: Spawning habitat: SST, product of primary production ( food ), forage biomasses ( predators ) Juvenile habitat: SST, biomass of adults tuna ( cannibals ) Movement (feeding) habitat: forage biomass (epipelagic, mesopelagic, bathypelagic, migrant mesopelagic, migrant bathypelagic and highly migratory bathypelagic species), temperature and oxygen concentration at 3 layers (0-100m, m and >400m). Seasonality effect at high latitudes feeding habitat is computed as spawning habitat (obeying continuity of habitat distribution) Food requirement index index influencing the mortality rate of young tuna mostly imposing starvation penalty on their natural mortality rate. I. Senina, J. Sibert, P. Lehodey

4 Model structure Tuna habitats Parameters to be estimated Adult s habitat definition and migrations as a response to environmental heterogeneity Habitat parameters: (1) optimal temperature for spawning; (2) tolerance interval for spawning temperature; (3) optimal temperature for foraging/migrations; (4) tolerance interval for foraging temperature; (5) slope coefficient (response on food abundance); (6) critical concentration of oxygen; (7) slope coefficients in sigmoid function. Temperature functions for different ages Oxygen functions Movement parameters: (8) maximal diffusion coefficient; (9) slope coefficient in dependence on habitat index γ; (10) taxis coefficient χ; habitat quality month 9 months 3 years slope coef. = -2.5 slope coef. = -25 diffusion coefficient γ=0.5, γ=0.1, γ=0.1, Δ Δ Δ H = 0 H = 0 H = 1 δx temperature O2 concentration movement habitat I.

19 Projections and management applications Results and further plans Results and further plans The efficient computational tool developed for estimating model parameters, that allows to improve fit of the model predictions to observations; Optimization experiments showed that such an explicit spatial model is able to adequately predict spatial distribution of catch with small number of control parameters; Improvements in the model made as a result of optimization experiments: Topographic indices, preventing tuna dispersal to shallow regions (with usually high habitat index); Removing variability of mortality of adults, adding starvation penalty on mortality of young tuna Adding Beverton-Holt stock-recruitment relationship. Still need improvement: Model predictions for EPO fisheries data Upcoming work: Publishing current results; Parameter estimation in the tuna-forage coupled model; Application of parameter estimation to other tuna species (bigeye and yellowfin) Projections based on different management scenarios.
