Vulnerability of marine megafauna to global at‐sea anthropogenic threats

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened ...

Dissolved and Particulate Methylated Mercury in a Highly Productive Area of the Southern Ocean

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Methylated mercury (MeHg), including dimethylmercury and monomethylmercury (MMHg), is a pollutant of concern because it biomagnifies in marine biota. The formation of MeHg in the oceans, specifically at highly productive regions and at high oxygen levels, remains elusive.

Lateral target strength of Antarctic krill [PDF]

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 1996
An area of high krill (Euphausia superba Dana) density was continuously monitored with down-looking and side-looking sonars over a period of 24 h. Measurements of volume backscattering strength were used to describe the density of krill with depth and the vertical movement of krill over time.

Chilean Antarctic krill fishery (2011-2016)

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2020
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a key resource in the Antarctic region, as it is the primary food source for fish, whales, seals, flying birds, penguins and cephalopods. The high concentrations of the species and its possible uses -food for human and animal consumption and in the production of industrial, pharmaceutical and dietetic products ...

An Oceanography‐Based Anticipatory Approach to Monitoring Fisheries and Fishery Resource Impacts From Offshore Wind Farms: A Perspective From the Mid‐Atlantic Bight, USA

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 5-21, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) of the eastern US differs from other offshore wind (OSW) development sites due to a unique seasonal oceanographic stratification regime. Fisheries there target migratory finfish and sedentary shellfish, the productivity and distribution of which are driven by oceanography with dynamic mesoscale features that can

The First Genome Survey of the Antarctic Krill (Euphausia superba) Provides a Valuable Genetic Resource for Polar Biomedical Research

Marine Drugs, 2020
The world-famous Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) plays a fundamental role in the Antarctic food chain. It resides in cold environments with the most abundant biomass to support the Antarctic ecology and fisheries.

Flume Tank Evaluation on the Effect of Liners on the Physical Performance of the Antarctic Krill Trawl

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is one of the most abundant resources in the ocean, which provides food for several important species in the Antarctic Ocean, and is targeted commercially by humans for many decades.

Drivers of intrapopulation variation in resource use in a generalist predator, the macaroni penguin [PDF]

Intrapopulation variation in resource use occurs in many populations of generalist predators with important community and evolutionary implications. One of the hypothesised mechanisms for such widespread variation is ecological opportunity, i.e. resource

Multielement Stable Isotope Ratios in the Baleen of Maternal and Fetal Fin Whales Provide Evidence for the Most Recently Formed Segment of Balaenopterid Baleen

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Baleen plates have been widely used to investigate the life cycle of mysticetes using a variety of chemical markers. Among these, stable isotope analysis (SIA) has been consistently applied to investigate their migratory movements and shifts in diet.
