چکیده انگلیسی
Climate warming has impacted the southern extent of sea ice in the eastern Bering Sea (EBS) ecosystem, leading to many changes in ocean conditions and food webs there. We explore how these changes have affected two key forage fish species, capelin (Mallotus villosus) and Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii), examining the effects of climate change on this commercially important ecosystem in the EBS. Catch per unit effort (CPUE) data from surface trawls, size, and diet of capelin and Pacific herring were collected during a series of warm and cold years by fisheries oceanographic surveys conducted from mid-August to early October 2003 through 2011. Overall, mean CPUE for both species was higher in the northeastern Bering Sea [NEBS; capelin=1.2Â kg/km2 (warm) and 40.0Â kg/km2 (cold); herring=141.1Â kg/km2 (warm) and 132.4Â kg/km2 (cold)] relative to the southeastern Bering Sea [SEBS; capelin=0.2Â kg/km2 (warm) and 5.8Â kg/km2 (cold); herring=15.8Â kg/km2 (warm) and 24.5Â kg/km2 (cold)], irrespective of temperature conditions. Capelin mean CPUE was significantly lower during warm years than during cold years [p<0.001; 0.6Â kg/km2 (warm), 19.0Â kg/km2 (cold)]. Pacific herring mean CPUE was less variable between warm and cold years [p<0.001; 63.8Â kg/km2 (warm), 66.2Â kg/km2 (cold)], but was still significantly less during warm years than cold. Capelin and herring lengths remained relatively constant between climate periods. Capelin lengths were similar among oceanographic domains [104Â mm (South Inner domain), 112Â mm (South Middle domain), 107Â mm (North Inner domain), and 104Â mm (North Middle domain)], while herring were larger in domains further offshore [123Â mm (South Inner domain), 232Â mm (South Middle domain), 260Â mm (South Outer domain), 129Â mm (North Inner domain), and 198Â mm (North Middle domain)]. Diets for both species were significantly different between climate periods. Large crustacean prey comprised a higher proportion of the diets in most regions during cold years. Age-0 walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) contributed >60% to the diets of Pacific herring in southern Middle Domain and >30% in the northern Middle domain during warm years. A switch to less energetic prey for these forage fishes during warm years may have implications for fitness and future recruitment. The shifts in the distribution and lower biomass of capelin in the EBS during warm years could lead to disruptions in energy pathways in this complex marine ecosystem.
