Famed marine researcher and illustrator Richard Ellis brings us a work of scientific achievement that will forever change the way we think about fish, fishing, and the dangers inherent in the seafood we eat. The bluefin tuna is one of the world's biggest, fastest, and most highly evolved marine animals, as well as one of its most popular delicacies. Now, however, it hovers on the brink of extinction. Here Ellis explains how a fish that was once able to thrive has become a commodity—and how the natural world and the global economy converge on our plates. With updated information on mercury levels in tuna, this is at once an astounding ode to one of nature's greatest marvels and a serious examination of a creature and world at risk.

In a lively account of the American tuna industry over the past century, celebrated food writer and scholar Andrew F. Smith relates how tuna went from being sold primarily as a fertilizer to becoming the most commonly consumed fish in the country. In American Tuna, the so-called "chicken of the sea" is both the subject and the backdrop for other facets of American history: U.S. foreign policy, immigration and environmental politics, and dietary trends. Smith recounts how tuna became a popular low-cost high-protein food beginning in 1903, when the first can rolled off the assembly line. By 1918, skyrocketing sales made it one of America’s most popular seafoods. In the decades that followed, the American tuna industry employed thousands, yet at at mid-century production started to fade. Concerns about toxic levels of methylmercury, by-catch issues, and over-harvesting all contributed to the demise of the industry today, when only three major canned tuna brands exist in the United States, all foreign owned. A remarkable cast of characters— fishermen, advertisers, immigrants, epicures, and environmentalists, among many others—populate this fascinating chronicle of American tastes and the forces that influence them.

Annotation Tuna are biologically fascinating, with many specializations such as endothermy (warm-bloodedness), aerobic capacity, and migratory abilities. The primary focus of this book is the physiology of tuna with respect to biomechanics, thermoregulation, and morphology. An evolutionary and phylogenetic backdrop illustrates the importance of comparative perspectives. Because of the economic importance of tuna, a secondary focus of the book is tuna aquaculture and conservation.

The total world catch of the major commercial tuna species (albacore, bigeye, bluefin, skipjack and yellowfin) has increased during the last 50 years (from 0.4 to 3.9 million tonnes), but the pattern of increase has varied among species, oceans and fishing gears. The Pacific Ocean has been the predominant region in the world catch, with catches from the Indian Ocean having exceeded those from the Atlantic Ocean in recent years. This publication examines historical trends in the catches of these tuna species and considers the causes of the variations.

Weaknesses in understanding of tuna distributions and movements have constrained the development of rational management policies. Uncertainties exist in: the selection of management plans and catch and effort data that are representative of a stock; quantification of exchange of adults among management jurisdictions and fishing gears; and identification of the relationships between the environment and tuna movements. This report summarizes a series of discussions between a panel and groups of experts on how to increase understanding of these and other tuna problems. We discuss the uncertainties in current management policy caused by lack of understanding of tuna movement dynamics. We describe and evaluate the research approaches presently used to describe the movements of tunas--mark and recapture and acoustic tracking-- and those which might be used or are just being applied, including new tagging systems, measurement of physiological state and microconstituents of mineralized tissue. Actions needed to improve the knowledge of tuna movements are: 1) establish international arrangements to share tuna movement data, to analyse movements on an oceanwide and worldwide basis and to link international oceanographic programs; 2) increase number and kinds of observations of movements of tuna in the vertical plane; 3) develop and use technology for tracing the actual paths followed by tunas over extended periods and for measuring movements independent of the fishery; and 4) conduct intensive studies on tuna movement dynamics which combine old with the new technologies discussed in the report.
