Two small field studies to increase information for management of the octopus complex in the BSAI and GOA. The first project provided gear and fuel for commercial vessels to test fish longlined habitat pot gear for directed octopus fishing. Gear included the plywood box pots developed for NPRB project 906 and HPDE octopus pots purchased by one industry partner from overseas. One vessel deployed groundline from a longline reel and the other from a commercial crab block; in both cases, octopus habitat pots were added as clip-on gear to the longline. The longline vessel in the GOA caught octopus in both plywood and HDPE pots, with the catch rate varying by season. The pot vessel in the BSAI had no problems handling gear, but caught very little octopus. The second project was directed at estimating short-term delayed mortality of octopus caught in commercial crab pot gear. Octopus captured in cod pots were held in individual containers in running seawater for 48-60 hours, and examined for condition every 24 hours. None of the 36 octopus in the study showed mortality or decline in condition during the observed period. Two octopus held in containers on deck (in air) survived more than two hours. All but one of the octopus were in excellent condition at the usual point of discard. This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0141205 Preview graphic PNG 0141205 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2016-01-25 publication ANIMALS - INDIVIDUAL biological data mortality rate theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS visual estimate instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS biological in situ visual estimate theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS NOAA Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Marine Mammal Laboratory dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS NOAA Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Marine Mammal Laboratory dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Bering Sea Gulf of Alaska North Pacific Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NMFS/AFSC/MML > Marine Mammal Laboratory, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2026 revision 24 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
