October Council Meetings –Presented to SSC, AP, and Council –SSC Comments: Commend all contributors Label when contributions were updated Further development of executive summary Link stock assessment results with updates to the ecosystem assessment and Incorporate climate information into stock assessments and the ecosystem assessment.

Organization Ecosystem Assessment Ecosystem Status Indicators Ecosystem-Based Mngt Indices

Objectives for Ecosystem Protection:  Maintain predator-prey relationships  pelagic forage availability  spatial/temporal conc. of fishery impact on forage fish  removals of top predators  introduction of non-native species  Maintain diversity  species diversity  functional (trophic, structural habitat) diversity  genetic diversity  Maintain energy flow and balance  human-induced energy redirection  system impacts attributable to energy removal CLIMATE and FISHING

DATA GAPS & RESEARCH NEEDS Lower trophic levels – indicators of bottom- up effects of climate Introduction of non-native species Spatial and temporal concentration of fishing removals Species-level catch estimates for some nontarget species (eg. eelpouts)

FUTURE Timing of Ecosystem Considerations Include model projections in assessment including climate scenarios and suites mngt. alternatives Bring lower trophic level models into assessment
