Value chain: Peru’s fishing sector

• Bottom-up quantification

• Has world’s biggest single-species fishery, for anchoveta

• But 69% of revenue and 87% of sector employment in Peru is from human consumption

Habitat capacity modeling in EwE

• Dynamic habitat model predicts howproductive individualcells are for eachspecies

• Spatial cells haveproperties for different habitattypes, e.g., %hard bottom

Habitat capacity modeling in EwE

• Basically asks the question: “why are the species where they are?”• Spatial foraging arena use can be defined based on environmental factors

Ecospace IBM representation

State of each packet over time is represented by:• X,Y position (spatial cell)• Number of fish • Mean body weight• Age (stanza)

Movement rules include random direction change (diffusion), oriented seasonal migration movement, and fitness gradient moves (toward cells with higher fitness as measured by the ratio (food availability)/(predation risk)

Spatial cells encountered by the packet vary in:• habitat characteristics• prey densities• predation risk• fishing effort

Modeling life history changes

• EwE uses multi-stanza formulation to model (key) groups where ontogenetic shifts are deemed important

• Has up to now been implemented using an age-based transition, but size-based is in the works

Multi-stanza groups: Size-based transitions is next

Model comparison: EwE & Size

• Size-based and trophic models use different approaches for modeling

• Also similarities, e.g. size is implicitly considered in diet compositions, (which, however, also have implicit spatial overlap considerations)

• For comparisons, common metrics are important

• EwE can produce size spectra as a standard output, would be interesting to compare with similar output from size-based models
