Temperature conditions in the Argentine chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) fishing ground: implications for fishery management

We describe the seasonal migrations of Argentine chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) into the fishing ground in relation to sea surface temperature conditions and analyse the temperature evolution during the fishing season on the basis of 1955–97 time‐series. The upper temperature limit for the presen...

Zusammenfassung:We describe the seasonal migrations of Argentine chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) into the fishing ground in relation to sea surface temperature conditions and analyse the temperature evolution during the fishing season on the basis of 1955–97 time‐series. The upper temperature limit for the presence of schools was around 19°C. At higher values, most schools leave coastal waters (
