James Ianelli
James
has many years of experience as a fisheries scientist
in developed and developing countries. Although much of
James’ work has focussed on the population dynamics and
modelling of various teleost finfish stocks, he has also
performed extensive research on shark and crab fisheries.
Much of his earlier work included mark-recapture studies,
involving species as diverse as large yellowfin and bluefin
tuna (<30 kg), dungoness crabs and baitfishes.
His
postings have included FAO (Rome), Humbolt State University,
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission, the South Pacific
Commission and the University of Washington. Currently,
James is a Fisheries Scientist for the Alaska Fisheries
Science Centre in Seattle, performing stock assessments
on groundfish species in the Northeast Pacific Ocean and
the Bering Sea. He is also on the board of directors for
the International Natural Resources Modelling Association.
Ana
Parma
Ana
Parma (National Research Council of Argentina) has been
working in Fisheries Research for 20 years. She has been
a researcher at the Instituto de Biologia Marina y Pesquera
in Argentina, the University of British Columbia, the
University of Seattle, the International Pacific Halibut
Commission and most recently the National Research Council
of Argentina. Ana completed her PhD in 1989 at the University
of Seattle under Drs. Deriso and Chapman. Her thesis is
titled "Contributions to stochastic models for the management
of exploited fish populations".

Ana's
main research interest is developing stock assessment
methodology and robust harvesting strategies. She
has worked with stock assessments in data- rich situations
such as Pacific halibut, New Zealand hoki, sablefish,
and Chilean lobster. Ana has also been involved in
developing stock assessment methods in data-poor situations
such as coastal, artisanal fisheries in Chile and
Argentina. This wealth of experience, reported in
over 25 publications, places Ana in a strategic position
to discuss fisheries assessments when only limited
data are available.
