probability of forming squid fishing areas. We believethe results appropriately indicate squid locations,since powerful lights on vessel attract squid. This studyhas also provided quantitative evidence that variationsin the spatial pattern of fishing vessel lights in the Seaof Japan can be linked to squid migration ecology.However, effective classification is difficult unlessenvironment variables are taken into account. Theseenvironmental variables should provide details on fishingarea formation to help define ecologically meaningfulassociations. Future research should incorporatedata on environmental variables in order to better understandthe ecological structures and functions ofeach class area. Another prerequisite for understandingthe potential role of an area is an understanding ofthe early life stages of the squid and the relationshipsbetween squid movements and typical oceanicfeatures.Continual monitoring of Todarodes pacificus stocksin the Sea of Japan will be required to assess managementefficiency and estimate the TAC. Targeting theentire area around Japan will not accurately determinethe total catch. Fishing regions having the greatestimpact on the TAC must be determined. Thus, ourclassification of 7 distinct areas can aid in squid catchmanagement by providing useful information on thespatial and temporal formations of squid fishing areas.This study presents an innovative methodologicalapproach to ocean ecological research and fisheries
oceanographic research.
