Abstract

The purpose of the work: to collect materials for assessing the state and dynamics of scallop stocks in the North Kuril zone, to study the spatial structure of settlements, to monitor the dynamics, distribution and composition of commercial catches in 2022.Materials and Methods: The work was carried out on a specialized rowing vessel “Vladimir Nikora” performed 210 dredging in the area limited by coordinates 49°20'N 49°30'N. and 154°57'E154°53'E at depths of 79-170 meters. The data collection tool is an industrial scallop dredge with a working width of 3.7 m (scallop dredge 1.04 / 3.74 m). The material type of the scallop dredge bag is kapron. The length of the dredging was 0.4-0.5 miles. The research covered the water area of 23 square meters. miles. Biological analysis was carried out for 5 thousand specimens of chlamy scallops. The biological state of hydrobionts was studied according to the methods generally accepted in fisheries research. For comparability of data on the distribution of hydrobionts, the catchability coefficient of the scallop dredge was used equal to 1. The linear dimensions of the scallops were measured with an accuracy of 1 mm.The practical significance of the research: to provide commercial and biological information materials on the total allowable catches of scallops in the North Kuril.
