Net negative nutrient yields in a bait-consuming fishery [PDF]
Efforts to achieve sustainable food systems are impeded by inefficiencies associated with the use of agricultural land and resources to grow feed for animals, rather than food for direct consumption by people.

Comparative biology and population mixing among local, coastal and offshore Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) in the North Sea, Skagerrak, Kattegat and western Baltic. [PDF]
The population structure of Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) from 13 local, coastal and offshore areas of the North Sea, Skagerrak, Kattegat and western Baltic (northeast Atlantic) was studied using biological and environmental data from 1970-2015. The

The genetic basis for ecological adaptation of the Atlantic herring revealed by genome sequencing [PDF]
Ecological adaptation is of major relevance to speciation and sustainable population management, but the underlying genetic factors are typically hard to study in natural populations due to genetic differentiation caused by natural selection being ...

Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) population structure in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean. [PDF]
The Atlantic herring Clupea harengus L has a vast geographical distribution and a complex population structure with a few very large migratory units and many small local populations. Each population has its own spawning ground and/or time, thereby maintaining their genetic integrity.

Trends in river herring environmental DNA in two North Carolina river systems. [PDF]
River herring (Blueback Herring [Alosa aestivalis] and Alewife [A. pseudoharengus]), were once abundant in North Carolina waters and were an economically important commercial fishery.

Direct evidence of natal homing in an Atlantic herring metapopulation. [PDF]
In times of increased human interventions, knowledge on animal breeding-site fidelity is crucial for the conservation of important reproduction areas vital to the resilience of populations. In particular, in the marine environment, dependency of ocean-going fish on specific coastal locations are rarely implemented in spatial planning.

Detecting Atlantic herring by parametric sonar [PDF]
The difference-frequency band of the Kongsberg TOPAS PS18 parametric sub-bottom profiling sonar, nominally 1–6 kHz, is being used to observe Atlantic herring. Representative TOPAS echograms of herring layers and schools observed in situ in December 2008 and November 2009 are presented.

Fishing, predation, and temperature drive herring decline in a large marine ecosystem
Since 1960, landings of Atlantic herring have been the greatest of any marine species in Canada, surpassing Atlantic cod and accounting for 24% of the total seafood harvested in Atlantic Canada.
