Abstract

Biomass of bottom and near-bottom fishes in the eastern Sea of Okhotsk has been calculated using results of a bottom trawl survey performed in the summer 2010 through depths of 200–1000 m. Obtained data are compared with the results of investigations performed in compatible water areas during the same season of 1989 and 1997. Biomass variability patterns of major species have been revealed for the period of more than two recent decades. The bathymetric and spatial distribution of major fish species has been revealed using the modern information. Species are listed whose commercial catches could be enlarged.
