A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Classification of European Illex coindetii and Loligo forbesii Squid Stocks by Trace Element Analysis of Statoliths

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigated whether statolith microchemistry analysis could classify ommastrephid and loliginid squid species into fishery stocks. Statolith nucleus (early life stage) and edge (life stage at time before catch) of Illex coindetii (Verany, 1839) and Loligo forbesii (Steenstrup, 1856) from various areas of the North East Atlantic Ocean and ...

Capelin Size, Condition, and Abundance Through Multiple Heatwaves in Alaska

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Capelin (Mallotus spp.) are pelagic forage fishes that can be especially abundant in sub‐arctic marine ecosystems and are important prey for upper trophic‐level consumers. Abundance and distribution of capelin have been linked to ocean temperature, but the magnitude and directionality of thermal sensitivity can vary regionally.

Culture performance and financial business of leopard coral (Plectropomus leopardus), humpback (Cromileptes altivelis), and brown-marbled (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus) grouper nursery

Aquaculture Reports
The nursery phase is critical in grouper aquaculture, influencing survival rates, growth performance, and economic feasibility. This study evaluates the culture performance and financial viability of three economically valuable grouper species: Leopard ...

Compound‐Specific Stable Isotope Analysis Reveals Population‐Specific Differences in Chinook Salmon Trophic Level and Basal Resource Use in the Northeast Pacific

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chinook salmon exhibit far‐flung and disparate population‐specific marine migrations that have made it difficult to assess their trophic ecology. In this study, we collected returning and resident subadult Fraser River Chinook salmon in 2018 and 2019 from population groups with different known run‐timings (spring, summer, and fall) and marine ...

Growth strategies across life‐history stages and generational turnover of cryptobenthic coral reef fishes of the genus Trimma

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Somatic growth influences survival and reproduction, with flow‐on effects on population dynamics and energy fluxes within ecosystems. Small‐bodied cryptobenthic reef fishes may contribute significantly to productivity due to their life‐history traits, including growth rates and rapid generational turnover.

Period of the day drives distinctions in the taxonomic and functional structures of reef fish assemblages

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Circadian processes are key drivers of animal behaviour, influencing patterns of activity, resource partitioning and competition avoidance. Studies evaluating circadian changes on the structure of marine assemblages are lacking, especially for reef fish.
