Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

A Tragedy of the Commons in Coastal Fisheries: Contending Prescriptions for Conservation, and the Case of the Atlantic Bluefin Tuna [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tuna (ICCAT) has recommended, in light of severe stress on the Atlantic Ocean\u27s population of bluefin tuna that, for the indefinite future, no commercial fishing for juvenile fish of this ...

Development and characterization of tri- and tetra-nucleotide polymorphic microsatellite markers for skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Skipjack tuna (katsuwonus pelamis) (SJT) is the largest tuna fishery in all the major oceans around the world, and the largest marine fishery in Sri Lanka. Knowledge of genetic population structure and effective population size of SJT in the Indian Ocean

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

Differences in diet of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) at five seasonal feeding grounds on the New England continental shelf [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The stomachs of 819 Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) sampled from 1988 to 1992 were analyzed to compare dietary differences among five feeding grounds on the New England continental shelf (Jeffreys Ledge, Stellwagen Bank, Cape Cod Bay, Great South

Natal Homing and Connectivity in Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Populations

open access: yesScience, 2008
Atlantic bluefin tuna populations are in steep decline, and an improved understanding of connectivity between individuals from eastern (Mediterranean Sea) and western (Gulf of Mexico) spawning areas is needed to manage remaining fisheries. Chemical signatures in the otoliths of yearlings from regional nurseries were distinct and served as natural tags ...

Surgical tagging of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus): electroanaesthesia and survival in captivity and the field

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Electroanaesthesia using electric fish handling gloves induced rapid and reversible sedation of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) during surgical tagging without observable adverse effects on behaviour or tag retention. In the laboratory, survival analyses revealed that longer handling times and smaller body sizes significantly reduced ...

An indexed bibliography of papers on tagging of tunas and billfishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Two working parties, the Working Party on Tuna Tagging in the Pacific and Indian Oceans and the Working Party on Tuna Tagging in the Atlantic and Adjacent Seas, were formed by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAD) of the United Nations in 1966 ...

The East Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Fisheries: Stock Collapse or Recovery? [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Resource Economics, 2006
A discrete time, multi-gear, and age structured bio-economic model is developed for the East Atlantic bluefin tuna fisheries, a paradigmatic example of the difficulties faced in managing highly migratory fish stocks. The model is used to analyse alternative management strategies for the Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (RFMO) managing this ...

Individual variability in activity patterns in Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) revealed using pop‐up satellite tags

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding fish behaviour and activity patterns is essential for interpreting their ecology and the processes that shape population dynamics, yet such information remains limited for wild fishes because observing individuals in situ is challenging.
