GAM fit and 95% CI for mean observed catch per unit effort, 1972–1994.
<p>Note that the Y-axis scales vary with species.</p
Seal harvest locations in the Sea of Okhotsk in April-July, 1972–1994 combined.
<p>Sea ice extent [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0182725#pone.0182725.ref012" target="_blank">12</a>] is provided for illustrative purposes for the year of 1980 (high ice year).</p
Observed catch per unit effort for 1972–1994 combined (right Y-axis) plotted against ordinal day.
<p>The boxes show the number and range of 50% of observations in each group; bold horizontal lines in boxes indicate median number of seals caught, dots indicate outliers in the data. The left Y-axis is for the GAM smooths for each year and multi-year mean. Note that both Y-axis scales vary with species.</p
Vessel-based seal harvest totals based on sealing log books and official vessel and shore-based harvest rates according to Okhotskrybvod reports from 1972–1994 in the Sea of Okhotsk.
<p>Note that these data do not include seals harvested in the west coast of Kamchatka (under jurisdiction of Kamchatrybvod). Abundance estimates are based on available population aerial survey results.</p
