Abstract

Oceanic conditions in walleye pollock habitat in the East Sea have shown decadal fluctuations between warm and cold periods in turn. Specifically, sea surface temperature (SST) has shown a dramatic increase between the late 1980s and the middle 2000s, and abrupt decreasing patterns after the late 2000s. Oceanic conditions in the Dong-han Bay (spawning ground) and middle eastern coastal waters (fishing ground), however, indicated different fluctuation trends in SST, increasing in the Dong-han Bay after the late 1980s, and decreasing after the late 2000s. These fluctuation patterns were especially clear in February and March. Sea surface temperature in the middle eastern coastal waters of Korea soared continuously after the late 1980s, but did not show a distinct decreasing pattern after the late 2000s compared with Dong han Bay, except for February SST values. These long term water temperature changes in both walleye pollock spawning and fishing ground are related to variation in walleye pollock landings. Especially, abrupt changes in spawning ground SST can be one of the factors influencing survival in the early ontogenesis of walleye pollock, including egg and yolk larval stages. During the 1980s, the area of suitable spawning temperature (2-5℃) was wider, and the length of Walleye pollock egg and larval stages greater compared with past and present oceanographic environments. However, such patterns did not correspond with the optimal spawning temperature range and greater length of development of walleye pollock during the late 1980s likely triggering a decline in pollock stock. In conclusion, it has been supposed that the dramatic decrease in walleye pollock landings in the East Sea since the late 1980s was caused by increasing water temperature leading to both early mortality and unsuitable spawning conditions.

동해 명태 서식처 환경은 한랭기와 온난기를 교차하며 변동을 지속하고 있다. 특히 1980년대 후반 이후 수온은 급격히 상승하였으며, 2000년대 후반 이후 다시 하강하는 특성을 나타내었다. 반면, 명태 주요 산란장이 위치한 동한만과 어장 중심이 형성되는 동해 중부 연안의 수온은 서로 다른 변동 특성을 나타내었다. 동한만의 겨울철 수온은 1980년 후반 이후 급격히 상승하였으며, 2000년 후반 이후 다시 하강하는 특성을 나타내었으며, 이러한 장기 변동특성은 2월과 3월에 더욱 뚜렷하였다. 반면 어장의 중심이 형성되는 동해 중부 연안의 수온은 1990년대 중후반 이후 지속적으로 상승하였으며, 2000년 후반 이후 수온이 하강하는 특성은 뚜렷이 나타나지 않았다. 이러한 산란장과 어장의 수온변화는 명태 자원량과 변동 특성이 유사하였다. 특히 산란장의 수온 변화는 난과 자·치어를 포함한 초기 생활사 시기의 생존율에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자로 작용한다. 1980년대에는 명태의 산란에 적합한 환경이 조성되는 면적과 지속시간이 평년보다 증가하였으며, 반대로 동해에 서식하는 명태의 자원량이 급격히 감소한 1980년대 후반 이후에는 산란장 면적과 적합한 환경이 지속되는 시간이 급격히 감소하였다. 명태 자원량 변화는 서식처의 물리적 환경변화와 유의한 상관성을 가지며, 특히 산란장의 수온 상승에 따른 산란에 적합한 환경이 조성되는 면적과 지속시간의 감소 그리고 어장의 축소는 명태 자원량 변화에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자로 작용하였다.
