A multispecies model is introduced, applying techniques previously
described by T. Laevastu. A stable solution for a typical Norwegian fjord is
obtained. A stabilizing technique assuring convergence is used. After
equilibrium is obtained, the ecosystem is released, and this 'out of control'
scenario is simulated. A fleet regime is used, modelled through Cobb-Douglas
equations. In addition a seabird dynamical regime was allowed to interact
with the aquatic system. We found, despite release of previous constraints,
the biomass solution tends to exhibit stable behavior, though transients
occurs in a narrow time period after disturbance is applied. The solution is
then moved to another equilibrium. Disturbance is in the form of excessive
fishery, temperature oscillations, and removal of biomass due to airborne
predators. The biomass dynamics during the year oscillates in a stable way,
expressing good annual dynamics.

The paper gives a description of the exploited fishery system on the
offshore West Greenland shrimp grounds, including recent findings of fish
community structure and trophic relationships. Based on the analysis of fish
stomachs from the key fish species and estimates of fish abundance obtained
from assessment surveys the total annual consumption of northern shrimp
(Pandalus borealis) and juvenile redfish by predatory fish in 1991-1992 has
been calculated. A preliminary attempt to integrate the interrelationships
between the main species and the fishery is made using a balanced, steady
state model.

Magnitude and species composition of fish bycatch are described for the
Gulf of Mexico and south Atlantic shrimp fleets. Bycatch estimates for the
Gulf were 15 times those for the south Atlantic. Highest estimates occurred
in the north-central and northwestern Gulf and in the south Atlantic off the
North Carolina and Georgia coasts. Catch compositions varied at the species
level; however, Sciaenidae was the dominant family for both the Gulf and the
south Atlantic. Gulf fauna included estuarine dependent species in
subtropical environs and estuarine independent species in tropical environs.
