Abstract

Abundance and distribution of jumbo flying squid (Dosidicus gigas) are evidently influenced by the changes of marine environment. In this study, the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) model was applied to examine the impacts of marine environmental variables on its potential distribution, and identified habitat hotspots of D. gigas in summer and autumn along the coast of Chile. The MaxEnt model was constructed by using the fisheries data of D. gigas from summer to autumn during 2011–2017 combined with critical environmental factors including mixed layer depth (MLD), sea surface salinity (SSS), sea surface height (SSH) and water temperature at depths of 0 m, 25 m, 50 m, 100 m, 150 m, 200 m, 300 m, 400 m and 500 m. Results showed that the actual fishing efforts of D. gigas in summer and autumn were mostly distributed in the suitable habitat, indicating that the MaxEnt model can well predict the habitat hotspots of D. gigas off Chile. The key environmental factors and their suitable ranges for D. gigas showed significant inter-monthly changes from December to May. The critical environmental factors of D. gigas off Chile were MLD, SSH, water temperature at different depths in summer (Temp_25m in December, Temp_300m in January and Temp_400m in February) and SSH, SSS, Temp_400m in autumn. Our findings suggest that selecting the key environmental factors is vital to study the potential distribution of D. gigas off Chile in each month to explore its habitat hotspots.
