TASK 1 (BAR CHARTS): TUNA AND SWORDFISH
Sample Answer
The provided bar charts display the totals of fish caught, categorised into two distinct categories, and the numnber of fishing vessels in operation in Westhaven between 2008 and 2011.
What is the most striking when looking at the data is that the number of both tuna and swordfish caught saw increases, with the former registering higher totals in most years, except for 2009 when it was outnumbered by the latter. Another notable feature is that the count of swordfish fluctuated more significantly than that of tuna, which observed a more stable trend. Also, the number of fishing boats increased eventually despite a largely stable pattern for the vast majority of the period.
Looking first at total catch statistics, 85,000 tuna were caught in 2008, slightly outnumbering the figure for swordfish, which stood at 75,000. By 2009, the order had been reversed, as the number for swordfish had risen by 30,000 fish, overtaking that of tuna, which only rose by 15,000 fish to reach 100,000. Notwithstanding this, the number of swordfish caught declined sharply in 2010 to be largely on par with its 2008 data point, at around 80,000 fish, while tuna maintained its growing trajectory, reaching 110,000 fish caught in 2010. This gap between the two categories was narrowed in 2011, as swordfish saw a recovery to around 105,000, whereas the figure for tuna increased only moderately to 120,000 fish.
Moving on to data related to fishing boats, the number of vessels was relatively stable in the initial three years, averaging at around 60 boats, with 2009 registering the largest figure of around 65 vessels. This, by 2011, had increased significantly to 80 boats, which was the highest number in the second chart.
