color:black'>Most of the studies investigating synchrony in fluctuations of
abundance of small pelagic fish have been based on catch data only, which do
not describe the dynamics of populations as a relative abundance index. In this
paper, catch, biomass, recruitment and recruitment rate, were used to compare
synchronous changes for two stocks of anchovy (<em><span style='font-family:
"Arial","sans-serif";border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'>Engraulis
ringens</span></em>) from 1982 to 2004. One is the <u>North Central Peru stock</u>
(NCP) and the other is the shared <u>South Peru-Northern Chile stock</u>
(SPNC). Correlation analysis demonstrated a significant association between
population time series, particularly during the growing phase of the stocks.
Thus, the synchronous fluctuation pattern of the two stocks is due to the
recovery phase and probably driven by density-independent effects of
simultaneous favorable environmental conditions occurring in the two regions.
The conclusions were: (i) both NCP and SPNC anchovy stocks are in an overall
positive phase of synchrony, (ii) higher correlations in the synchronous
pattern of fluctuations occurred during simultaneous increase of biomass, and
(iii) short-term fluctuations were negative when the abundance of the stock was
lower and/or impacted by El Niño events.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
