Peña, H. 2008. In situ target-strength measurements of Chilean jack mackerel (Trachurus symmetricus murphyi) collected with a scientific echosounder installed on a fishing vessel. – ICES Journal of Marine Science 65: 594–604. The use of commercial fishing vessels for scientific purposes has increased worldwide in the past 10 years. Many such studies have involved the collection of acoustic data from both uncalibrated and calibrated echosounders. However, few studies have involved investigations of in situ target strength (TS). During August/September 2003, in situ TS data on Chilean jack mackerel (Trachurus symmetricus murphyi) were collected on board a commercial purse-seiner during normal fishing operations off Chile, using a 38 kHz, Simrad EK60 scientific echosounder. The single-target detections of Chilean jack mackerel were filtered by depth, off-axis beam angle, and beam-compensation criteria to improve the quality of the data used for the TS calculations. Two methods, using raw data and tracked data, were employed to calculate the mean acoustic-backscattering cross section (σbs) and mean TS of Chilean jack mackerel. The results of the two approaches gave similar results, with a strong mode in the mean TS distribution between −35 and −37 dB for fish lengths ranging from 26 to 34 cm, indicating a b20 value of −66 dB. These results agreed well with most results published for this species and others of the same genus (i.e. T. trachurus, Trachurus t. capensis, and T. japonicus).
