The ecological system conformed by the islands of Tenerife and La Gomera (Canary Islands) is characterized though the trophic network. The indicators obtained by the Ecopath model show a stressed and still developing ecosystem, probably related to inadequate management of the fisheries that takes place in this area, focused on high trophic level species. The Ecosim and Ecospace modules have been used to provide comparative assessment of three management scenarios addressed to evaluate the impact of fishing, both professional and recreational, on the marine ecosystem, as well as the spatial evolution of the fishing effort in a projection period going from 2021 to 2030, that can be applied in decision-making and planning in the short and medium term. In all the simulated scenarios, a drastic reduction in the biomass of pelagic species was observed, including the trophic guild of pelagic sharks that the model identifies as key species for the correct functioning of this marine ecosystem. Despite the existing information gaps, the results seem to confirm that the intense exploitation to which some functional groups have been subjected in the past has left its mark on the ecosystem, requiring a significant fishing effort reduction to attempt a recovery of the stocks. It is strongly recommended the implementation of a recreational fishing data collection system with less uncertainty, due to its significant role in the state of this ecological system.

使用Ecosim和Ecosim模拟捕鱼情景对两个海洋岛屿的营养影响

特内里费岛和戈梅拉岛(加那利群岛)组成的生态系统通过营养网来表征。通过生态路径模型获得的指标显示出一个压力很大且仍在发展中的生态系统,可能与该地区渔业管理不善有关,重点放在营养级别较高的物种上。Ecosim和Ecospace模块已用于提供三种评估方案的比较评估,这些评估方案旨在评估专业捕捞和休闲捕捞对海洋生态系统的影响,以及在预测期内的捕捞努力的空间演变。 2021年至2030年,可将其应用于中短期的决策和计划中。在所有模拟的情景中,观察到远洋物种的生物量都急剧减少,包括该模型确定为该海洋生态系统正常运行的关键物种的远洋鲨鱼营养协会。尽管存在信息鸿沟,但结果似乎证实,过去某些职能团体受到的强烈剥削已在生态系统上留下了印记,需要大量减少捕捞努力以试图恢复种群。强烈建议实施具有较少不确定性的休闲捕鱼数据收集系统,因为该系统在该生态系统的状态中起着重要作用。结果似乎证实,过去某些功能组受到的强烈剥削已在生态系统上留下了印记,需要大量减少捕捞努力以试图恢复种群。强烈建议实施休闲捕鱼数据收集系统,因为它在该生态系统的状态中起着重要作用,因此不确定性较小。结果似乎证实,过去某些功能组受到的强烈剥削已在生态系统上留下了印记,需要大量减少捕捞努力以试图恢复种群。强烈建议实施具有较少不确定性的休闲捕鱼数据收集系统,因为该系统在该生态系统的状态中起着重要作用。
