HMS Student Papers 1998 - Intramuscular anesthesia in yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares), bonito (Sarda chiliensis), and pacific mackerel (Scomber japonicus), its viability and effects on blood parameters
Abstract: This project focused on the development of an anesthetic regimen in yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares), bonito (Sarda chiliensis), and Pacific mackerel (Scomber japonicus), while monitoring effects on blood chemistry and hematology.
Further studies into this form of intramuscular anesthesia are needed, both to better determine the feasibility of usage of the drugs in yellowfin tuna, and to ascertain an ideal anesthetic dose in bonito and mackerel.

Yellowfin (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye (Thunnus obesus) tunas do not reside long at the Cross Seamount near Hawaii, an observation inconsistent with the theory that tunas feed on prey that remain aggregated at the site; rather their rapid passage suggests that the site is a landmark used to guide migrations (Holland et al., 1999).

Ten samples of 20-30 yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares each, collected between 1994 and 1996 from fishing vessels operating in the IATTC Yellowfin Regulatory Area (CYRA), were compared genetically.
Overall, results are consistent with the hypothesis that the CYRA yellowfin tuna samples comprise a single genetic stock, although gene flow appears to be greater among coastal samples than between coastal and offshore samples.

Spatio-temporal distribution of yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares and bigeye tuna Thunnus obesus in the Tropical Pacific Ocean in relation to large-scale temperature fluctuation during ENSO episodes
Historical catch and effort data collected from tuna longliners during 1962 and 1997 are used to investigate how the spatio- temporal distribution of the two most economically important species of tunas in the Tropical Pacific Ocean (TPO) (i.e.
yellowfin Thunnus albacares and bigeye Thunnus obesus) varies with the ocean temperature fluctuations that occur during El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events.

HMS Student Papers 1997 - Fat metabolism and physiology in captive yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares)
Abstract: At the Tuna Research and Conservation Center, in Monterey, California, captive yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) demonstrated an increase in lipid accumulation and mortalities when fed a high calorie and high fat diet.
To dertermine what influence a high fat diet has on tuna physiology, one tank (T2) holding 28 fish was designated for diet manipulation while oxygen consumption and stomach temperatures were used to measure changes in metabolism.

Field examination of Thunnus albacares stomach contents caught in association with northern offshore spotted dolphin, Stenella attenuata, and eastern spinner dolphin, Stenella longirostris, during Set No. 10 on 11/26/92 at 9
The primary objectives of the project were to capture, tag, and simultaneously track northern offshore spotted dolphins, Stenella attenuata, and yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares, in order to define the duration and dynamics of the tuna/dolphin bond, and to conduct food-habits studies to determine the degree to which the bond is food-based.
A secondary objective of the study was to determine whether the bond breaks or loosens at particular times or during particular conditions in order to determine whether tuna would be vulnerable to fishing at such times.

The tuna fishery in the eastern Pacific Ocean (EPO) sets purse seines in three major modes: school, log, and dolphin fishing.
Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and certain species of dolphins are found to associate in the EPO.
The spotted dolphin (Stenella attenuata) is by far the most important species from the point of view of its frequency of association with tuna and its use by fishermen for catching tuna (Perrin, 1969).
