ESA-listed Puget Sound rockfish: How did we get here and how do we assess progress towards recovery planning goals?

In Puget Sound, WA, rockfish abundance declined significantly over the last 50+ years as a result of fishing pressure, life-history characteristics and the isolated geography of Puget Sound. In 2010, three species of rockfish were listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA): yelloweye rockfish, canary rockfish and bocaccio. Due to a general lack of data specific to these three species, data from other rockfish species were used to support the listings. Since the listings, targeted research and recovery planning has begun to address major data gaps for these three species. First, cooperative research with the recreational fishing community has revealed that yelloweye rockfish are genetically distinct from coastal populations, whereas canary rockfish are not distinct - which has led to canary rockfish being delisted, the first delisting of a marine fish. Second, an ROV survey has been designed specifically to provide a path forward to estimate changes in abundance of listed rockfish in Puget Sound. Third, the Rockfish Recovery Plan for yelloweye rockfish and bocaccio has been published. This plan provides, and we have begun to address, a list of research activities related to environmental conditions and human activities that might constrain rockfish recovery. Two ongoing studies examine whether specific environmental covariates (e.g. dissolved oxygen) alter the movement and foraging behavior of yelloweye rockfish and whether rockfish bycatch can be reduced in the recreational lingcod fishery by using specific bait types. Finally, we will discuss the criteria to be used for delisting these species under the ESA, including statistical methods and operational challenges

High Intensity Interval Exercise Does Not Influence Overnight GH Secretion in Overweight Sedentary Young Women

Exercise and sleep are the two major factors that influence growth hormone (GH) secretion and it has been well established that there is a strong positive relationship between exercise intensity and GH release. This dose-dependent response may also be correlated with the lactate response to exercise, with steady-state exercise intensities above the lactate threshold eliciting a greater GH pulse. It has yet to be determined, however, if high-intensity interval exercise (HIE) can influence overnight pulsatile GH secretion, which accounts for the majority of daily GH release. PURPOSE: To determine if HIE significantly increased overnight GH secretion compared to continuous moderate-intensity exercise (MOD), or no exercise (CON) in young women. METHODS: Five young, sedentary women (mean ± SD age: 22.6 ± 1.3 y; BMI: 27.4 ± 3.1 kg/m2; body fat: 39.2 ± 1.7 %; VO2max: 29.4 ± 5.7 mL/kg/min) were studied on three different occasions during the follicular phase of their menstrual cycle (CON: no exercise; MOD: 30-min of continuous cycling at 50% of peak power determined from the VO2max test; and HIE: 4 30-s “all-out” sprints at a resistance equal to 6.5% body mass with 4.5-min recovery. Each trial was randomly assigned and separated by a minimum of one month. For each visit, participants reported to the lab at 1700h, exercised from 1730h – 1800h, and remained in the lab until 0700h the following morning. The overnight GH secretory profile of each trial was determined from 10-min sampling of venous blood from 1730h – 0600h (12.5 h) using deconvolution analysis. RESULTS: Mean power output during MOD was 80.6 ± 6.3 W (68.2 ± 9.7 %VO2max). Estimated exercising energy expenditure for MOD (145.1 ± 11.2 kcal) was significantly lower than HIE (204.5 ± 15.5 kcal, P = 0.002). Peak lactate was significantly higher during MOD (4.7 ± 0.9 mmol/L) compared to CON (0.9 ± 0.2 mmol/L, P = 0.002) and was highest during HIE (11.2 ± 2.1 mmol/L) compared to MOD (P \u3c 0.001) and CON (P \u3c 0.001). Calculated GH AUC (0 – 120 min) was significantly greater in HIE (1018.2 ± 576.1 ng· min/mL) than CON (181.7 ± 138.9 ng· min/mL, P = 0.009), but not MOD (544.7 ± 160.7 ng· min/mL). Overnight GH production rate (ng/mL/min) determined by deconvolution analysis was not significantly different between CON (1040.3 ± 242.0), MOD (1429.2 ± 206.0), and HIE (1831.2 ± 873.8, P = 0.107). Other GH secretory variables: basal GH concentration (ng/mL), number of GH peaks, GH pulse amplitude and mass, and interpulse interval were not different between the three trials. CONCLUSION: For these untrained, overweight sedentary young women, a single bout of exercise was insufficient to significantly affect overnight pulsatile GH secretion. Adiposity is a negative determinant of GH secretion, and the GH response to exercise in these women was extremely variable. Aerobic fitness, prior training, as well as several metabolic factors associated with obesity (e.g., increased insulin and circulating free fatty acids) can also influence GH secretion and should be taken into account as potential mediators of the GH response to exercise
