The Reformed Common Fisheries Policy
![Page 7: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The new CFP
Article 2.2• The CFP shall apply the precautionary approach to fisheries
management, and shall aim to ensure that exploitation of living marine biological resources restores and maintains populations of harvested species above levels which can produce the maximum sustainable yield.
![Page 8: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
CFP and the Ecosystem ApproachPreamble of CFPWhereas: ...• (11) The CFP should contribute to the protection of the
marine environment, to the sustainable management of all commercially exploited species, and in particular to the achievement of good environmental status by 2020, as set out in Article 1(1) of Directive 2008/56/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council1.
• (13) An ecosystem-based approach to fisheries management needs to be implemented, environmental impacts of fishing activities should be limited and unwanted catches should be avoided and reduced as far as possible.
![Page 9: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
CFP and the Ecosystem Approach• Article 4.1 (9) 'ecosystem-based approach to fisheries
management' means an integrated approach to managing fisheries within ecologically meaningful boundaries which seeks to manage the use of natural resources, taking account of fishing and other human activities, while preserving both the biological wealth and the biological processes necessary to safeguard the composition, structure and functioning of the habitats of the ecosystem affected, by taking into account the knowledge and uncertainties regarding biotic, abiotic and human components of ecosystems;
Article 4.1 (11) 'low impact fishing' means utilising selective fishing techniques which have a low detrimental impact on marine ecosystems or which may result in low fuel emissions, or both;

CFP and Protected Areas
Preamble of CFP• (22) In order to contribute to the conservation of living aquatic
resources and marine ecosystems, the Union should endeavour to protect areas that are biologically sensitive, by designating them as protected areas. In such areas, it should be possible to restrict or to prohibit fishing activities. When deciding which areas to designate, particular attention should be paid to those in which there is clear evidence of heavy concentrations of fish below minimum conservation reference size and of spawning grounds, and to areas which are deemed to be bio-geographically sensitive. Account should also be taken of existing conservation areas. [....]
![Page 11: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Article 8, Establishment of fish stock recovery areas
1. The Union shall, while taking due account of existing conservation areas, endeavour to establish protected areas due to their biological sensitivity, including areas where there is clear evidence of heavy concentrations of fish below minimum conservation reference size and of spawning grounds. In such areas fishing activities may be restricted or prohibited in order to contribute to the conservation of living aquatic resources and marine ecosystems.
![Page 12: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
CFP and Minimizing Impact of Fishing
• Article 2.3 The CFP shall implement the ecosystem-based approach to fisheries management so as to ensure that negative impacts of fishing activities on the marine ecosystem are minimised, and shall endeavour to ensure that aquaculture and fisheries activities avoid the degradation of the marine environment.
![Page 13: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Article 4.1 (17) 'minimum conservation reference size' means the size of a living marine aquatic species taking into account maturity, as established by Union law, below which restrictions or incentives apply that aim to avoid capture through fishing activity; such size replaces, where relevant, the minimum landing size;
![Page 14: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The MSY concept
![Page 15: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
MSY, Bmsy and Fmsy
• MSY is the maximum sustainable yield• Biomass (B) is the weight of the fish in the sea• Bmsy is the biomass that can produce MSY
• Fmsy is the fishing pressure that eventually results in Bmsy and MSY
• A stock is and remains in good status if B > Bmsy and F < Fmsy
![Page 16: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Background of the MSY Concept
Schaefer 1954; BioDivPopGrowthMSY.xls
![Page 17: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Surplus Production Implications
• Surplus production (Y) is the production of biomass beyond what is needed to maintain current population size
• If a fishery only catches the surplus production, then the population size remains
• If a fishery catches more, then the population shrinks
• If it catches less, then the population grows
![Page 18: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Surplus Production Implications
• Surplus production has a maximum at about half of unexploited population size B∞
• Keeping a population at 0.5 B∞ allows catching MSY forever
• A population is kept stable if the fishing rate F equals the intrinsic growth rate rt
• MSY is reached at ½ B∞ and ½ rmax
• Thus, MSY is reached at Fmsy = ½ rmax
![Page 19: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
New Approaches to Estimate MSY
![Page 20: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
MSY from Catch and Resilience
• For a population to sustain a history of output such as catch, it needs to have had a certain size and productivity
• If you know the time series of annual production (biomass taken out for human use), and you know the productivity of the species, then you can calculate biomass and reference points
![Page 21: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Catch-MSY MethodMartell & Froese 2013
Output of the Catch-MSY method showing “viable” pairs surplus production rate r and unexploited biomass k for North Sea cod. The red line indicates all r-k pairs that would result in the same estimate of MSY; the red circle indicates the geometric. While the estimate of MSY is robust, the geometric mean r = 0.24 depends on the lower bound for r.

New CMSY-Method in prep.
• Same approach as in Catch-MSY• New, objective approach to determine rmax
• This results in surprisingly good estimates of biomass time series, Bmsy and Fmsy
• Formal Bayesian approach under development

The Past Common Fisheries Policy(until 2013)
• Apply a precautionary approach to fishing• Keep fish stocks within safe biological limits
![Page 31: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Safe Biological Limits
Conceptual drawing of the hockey stick relationship between spawning stock size and recruitment. SSBlim marks the border below which recruitment declines, SSBpa marks a precautionary distance to SSBlim, and 2 * SSBpa can be used as a proxy for SSBmsy, the stock size that can produce the maximum sustainable catch.(Froese et al. submitted)

Quality of Scientific Advice
• Fisheries science holds that mortality caused by sustainable fishing (Fmsy) should be less than natural mortality (M) caused by e.g. predation, diseases, natural hazards or old age
• Doubling mortality reduces life time and reproductive phase by half and also reduces average size and fecundity
• However, in 29 of 38 stocks (76%) with available data, the ICES estimate of Fmsy exceeded M, on average by 62%
(Froese et al. submitted)
![Page 34: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Fishing Mortality may be Higher
Based on the ICES Stock Summary database 10/2013 with data for 45 stocks
True F/Fmsy may be higher because of unrealistically high Fmsy in 76% of the stocks
(Froese et al. submitted)
![Page 35: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Quality of Scientific Advice
• ICES provides estimates of the border of safe biological limits (SSBpa). Below SSBpa recruitment may be reduced and the stock is at increased risk of collapse
• In 14 of 43 stocks (33%) with available data, the ICES estimate of SSBpa fell below the median estimate of three independent scientific methods.

Common Sense Rules for Ecosystem-based Management
• Only catch fish for direct human consumption• Only catch species with high resilience• Do not damage the ecosystem• Take less than nature• Let fish grow and spawn before capture
![Page 40: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Size Matters (Froese et al. 2008, Froese et al. in prep)
Three important points in the life of species with indeterminate growth:
• Length at maturity (Lm90)
• Length Lmax dW/dt where growth is maximum
• Length Lopt where cohort biomass is maximum
![Page 41: From verge of collapse to ecosystem-based fisheries management Rainer Froese RD3 Seminar GEOMAR, Kiel, 15.05.2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d215503460f949f5b7c/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Natural Selection “Economizes” Organisation of Reproduction
If• reproduction happens when production of
tissue is maximum• Lm90 <= Lmax dW/dt (= in semelparous, < in iteroparous)
• Lm90 <= Lopt (then topt = generation time)
• Lmax dW/dt = Lopt (then most offspring are produced when
production of tissue is maximum)

Economizing Reproduction
Froese and Pauly 2013
Life history strategies for the timing of reproduction: A) semelparous, B) iteroparous with parental care, C) broadcast spawners. Note: Blue line is not to scale.

Size Matters!
Biomasse of a cohort (e.g. cod) vs length. Maturity is reached at Lm90 = 59 cm. Maximum growth and high fecundity is reached at Lopt = 86 cm. However, legal fishing starts at Ll = 35 cm.

Fishing with Fmsy starting at Ll will not rebuild the stocks
Cohort biomasse (e.g. cod) without fishing (bold curve) and with F = Fmsy fishing Starting at legal length (dotted curve). Froese et al. 2008

Fishing with F=M starting at Lcopt
rebuilds the stock
Unexploited cohort biomass (bold curve), with Fmsy –fishing (dotted curve), and withF=M fishing starting at Lcopt (dashed curve), so that the mean length in the catch andIn the exploited part of the stock equals Lopt. Froese et al. in prep.
Lm90- Large biomass (~ 1.2 Bmsy)- Higher catch- Lower cost

Impact of Fishing on Size Structure
Length-frequency without fishing (bold curve), with F = Fmsy fishing after Ll , and with F = M Fishing after Lcopt. With Lcopt fishing all fish reach maturity and about 2/3 reach Lopt. WithFmsy fishing after Ll , only 2/3 reach maturity and only 1/3 reach Lopt. Froese et al. in prep.
