We have developed a population dynamics model that considers the spatial segregation by sex and ontogenetic stages of pelagic sharks. The model was used to evaluate the performance of harvest strategies based on ecological characteristics. We proposed five harvest strategies for longline fisheries based on the ecological characteristics of blue shark (Prionace glauca) in the North Pacific. Management objectives for depleted populations are to increase yield to the level that provides maximum sustainable yield through increases in biomass without collapsing the fishery. Deterministic and stochastic analyses were undertaken. We determined that the harvest of male sharks was robust to uncertainty of environmental changes, reducing the likelihood of fishery collapse and stabilizing yield and mean biomass. The harvest of male sharks was also robust to the uncertainties of biological parameters such as natural mortality and steepness. These results suggested that if there was no sperm limitation or impact on th...
