Spatial patterns of the Argentine hake Merluccius hubbsi and oceanographic processes in a semi-enclosed Patagonian ecosystem

Time-series of fishing position, landings, satellite-derived sea-surface temperature and chlorophyll a concentrations were used to relate the spatial-temporal distribution of the Argentine hake Merluccius hubbsi with seasonal oceanographic processes in San Matías Gulf. Also, the seasonal effect of f...

description Time-series of fishing position, landings, satellite-derived sea-surface temperature and chlorophyll a concentrations were used to relate the spatial-temporal distribution of the Argentine hake Merluccius hubbsi with seasonal oceanographic processes in San Matías Gulf. Also, the seasonal effect of fishing on the hake population structure was analysed. During summer the fleet was concentrated over the area of the frontal system, obtaining the best catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) of hake in relatively deep waters.
