Divergent Environmental Niches and Climate Vulnerabilities of Jonah Crab (Cancer borealis) and Atlantic Rock Crab (Cancer irroratus)

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Jonah crab and Atlantic rock crab in the United States are currently assessed by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration climate change vulnerability assessments under the category Cancer crabs due to a dearth of species‐specific information across the attributes assessed.

Weathering the Storm: Effects of a Hurricane‐Induced Thermal Disturbance on a Juvenile Atlantic Halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) Hotspot in Nova Scotia, Canada

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atlantic Halibut has recently become the most valuable groundfish in Atlantic Canada following population recovery, and the benthic habitat characteristics of their aggregation areas have been identified as a key outstanding ecological knowledge gap for the species. In 2022, during a multi‐year acoustic tracking study in a key juvenile hotspot

Under the cover of darkness: Foraging behaviour increases on cloudy, new moon nights in a pelagic seabird

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...

The former distribution of White‐tailed Eagles in Iberia, the Mediterranean and the Middle East: a case study of the importance of understanding historical distribution in informing current conservation and restoration interventions

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
The importance of considering historical data in developing conservation and restoration measures for individual species and for wider ecological restoration has been pointed out by recent reviews but often remains neglected in practice. This paper provides a case study illustrating the issue through a review of the former breeding distribution of the ...

The demography of an Osprey population under natural recolonisation and translocation processes

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
In a context of global biodiversity loss, studying the processes underlying the recolonisation—whether natural or assisted—of expanding species provides essential insights for the development of effective conservation strategies. Since the 1980s, the Osprey Pandion haliaetus has naturally recolonized mainland central and eastern France, increasing from
