Societal challenges and co-creation End Integrated assessment Advice and decision support for an ecosystem based approach to fisheries management Implementation EXPECTED OUTCOME & MAIN RESULTS SO FAR New tools and technologies: • indicators, MareFrame database incl. upload & extraction routines, evaluation tools Extended ecosystem models and assessment methods: • tests and comparisons of models across ecosystems New Decision Support Framework (DSF) that can highlight alternative management actions and their consequences Development, acceptance and incorporation by stakeholders: • co-creation, training tools, visualization tools for different management scenarios Support implementation of the new Common Fisheries Policy (CFP), the Marine strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and the Habitats Directive (HD). Also the SA strategy on “Operation Phakisa Oceans Economy” • developing clear policy objectives, effective decision-making, industry that is ecologically, socially and economically sustainable.

Why an internationally collaborative study? Challenges of ecosystem modelling • • Scarcity of pertinent data Different approaches can lead to very different predictions Secondary interactions • • Interaction that are not between species of primary concern, but which could reverse the expected effect of the primary interactions SA example: hake fishery (two species, worth roughly R5 billion a year) interaction with seals – could culling seals allow more hake catches? Primary interaction Seals Decrease seals consume Secondary interaction Shallow-water hake consume Increase shallow-water hake Deep-water hake Decrease deep-water hake Overall hake abundance and hence catches may go down, rather than up, if seals are culled.

MareFrame: Do some common broad conclusions arise consistently across the 8 studies, thus enhancing confidence in the reliability of ecosystem modelling? THIS PROJECT HAS RECEIVED FUNDING FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION’S SEVENTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME FOR RESEARCH, TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION UNDER GRANT AGREEMENT NO. 613571. SA’s involvement in MareFrame Marine Resource Assessment and Management Group (MARAM) at UCT act mainly as advisors on multispecies/ecosystem modelling, given considerable experience in this field, e.g.: Interaction Location Authors 1. Hake-seals South Africa Punt and Butterworth 1995 2. Krill-seals Antarctic Thomson et al. 2000 3. Krill-seals-whales Antarctic Mori and Butterworth 2006 4. Krill and land-based predators Antarctic (Scotia Sea) Plagányi and Butterworth 2012 5. Pelagic fish-penguins South Africa Robinson et al. 2015 6. Krill-seals-whales (update to 3) Antarctic Moosa and Butterworth (current) 7. Hake-on-hake (update to 1) South Africa Ross-Gillespie and Butterworth (current) Comparisons across case studies in MareFrame and MARAM UCT SA that will help to enhance confidence in the reliability of multi-species modelling. THIS PROJECT HAS RECEIVED FUNDING FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION’S SEVENTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME FOR RESEARCH, TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION UNDER GRANT AGREEMENT NO. 613571. SA example: Hake-on-hake multi-species model Update of the Punt and Butterworth (1995) hake-seal model focusing on the hake-on-hake interaction. Shallow-water hake feed extensively on deep-water hake, thus as the initial fishery reduced shallow-water population in first half of 20th century, the deep-water species could have experienced a predation release. Current assessment models don’t take hake-on-hake predation into account explicitly and could miss important features of the hake populations.

Benefits of the South African and European scientific collaboration Mutually beneficial relationship – knowledge & technology transfer; access to wide international research and cooperation network: • • • More advanced ecosystem models by comparing across case studies of MareFrame and UCT SA Helps to enhance confidence in the reliability of ecosystem modelling and to develop a holistic approach to fisheries management, including socio-economics and governance. Student and staff exchanges, e.g. through the Marie-Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSC), Framework Programme and other joint and national exchange programmes. MARAM UCT SA (Prof. Doug Butterworth, et al.) have extensive experience in integrated assessment and multi-species modelling. Europe benefits from the input of their experience. SA benefits by bringing back ideas developed globally. Base for future collaboration on the common marine and polar research priorities. THIS PROJECT HAS RECEIVED FUNDING FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION’S SEVENTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME FOR RESEARCH, TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION UNDER GRANT AGREEMENT NO. 613571. Contribution to the common challenges of the the South African and European collaboration Common challenges: future uncertainties due to climate change; overexploitation of marine stocks (biodiversity, fisheries management); lack of knowledge, requirement for accurate modelling; lack of infrastructure/roadmaps for implementation of improved systems (technology development); discards, lack of proper handling and utilization of living resources (food security) Contribution: Develop new tools and technologies. Advance models and develop Decision Support Framework for ecosystem-based fisheries management and implementation through co-creation, collaboration and training. Strengthen future collaboration on the Atlantic marine and polar research prioritese as agreed by the Joint Science and Technology Cooperation Committee (JSTCC).
