Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) has become a priority for many states wanting to develop national blue economy plans and meet international obligations in response the increasing cumulative impacts of human activities climate change. In areas beyond jurisdiction (ABNJ), MSP is proposed as part package solutions multi-sectoral management at ocean basin scale. To facilitate planning, maps showing spatial distribution marine biological diversity are required. lacking data, like South Atlantic,...
This paper describes the composition of harvest by species two vessels operating with different pelagic longline systems aimed at swordfish (Xiphias gladius). Four zones were surveyed in Uruguayan EEZ and international waters south-western Atlantic. Data collected observers on board who recorded number individuals each caught. In all, 50 caught, which 15 cartilaginous fish, 27 teleosts eight ‘non- fish’ (birds, mammals turtles). The most abundant blue shark (Prionace glauca) (43%), (27%)...
Analysis of the mitochondrial DNA control region resolved two stocks whitemouth croaker Micropogonias furnieri in Uruguayan waters, one Río de la Plata and other on shelf. The is most important coastal fishery resource along coast has greatest commercial importance its oceanic front. number pair‐wise differences (π) haplotype diversity ( h ) showed significant between regions. Frequencies mtDNA haplotypes did not differ from Bahia Blanca M. . Samples front greater genetic variability a...
Irigoyen et al., 2008). We report here on the presence of A. brasilianus as a common rocky reef species in Uruguay (35°45¢S), 1300 km south its previously recorded limit distribution.This information arises after taxonomic misidentification was resolved for two Acanthistius (Gill, 1862) described Southwest Atlantic (Irigoyen 2008): (Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1828) based specimens collected off Brazil, patachonicus (Jenyns, 1842) three by Darwin Argentina (Fig. 1).In 1974, considered to be synonym up
The Uruguayan coast presents upwelling events during the summer, its implications on distribution, transport of nutrients and organisms; their effects entire food web, have not been previously analyzed. This work seeks to understand relationship between location coastal industrial fleet (B Category). Finite Size Lyapunov Exponents (FSLE) were computed from surface current velocity fields. temporal averages these exponents indicate mixing intensity presented higher values over region more...
Lightering and cargo transfer areas were defined in the Treaty of Río de la Plata 1973, placing two on each side river. The increase regional activity also increased flow goods, services, fluvial maritime transport. growing number size transport vessels has led to establishment new anchorage zones rising from 236 km2 1977 600 2014. Given that these are located traditional fishing Uruguayan fleet, vessels, type destination anchored various lightering awaiting was evaluated along 6 months...
