Trends in abundance indices derived from commercial fisheries for priority marine stocks in the Azores

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 103, Issue 4, Page 815-827, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Large‐scale assessments of fish and shellfish populations may be valuable for identifying the impacts of fishing pressure on stocks, but they are rarely possible due to a lack of long‐term datasets. In this study, a two‐part mixed‐effect model for lognormal data was used to obtain historical abundance indices for 16 priority fish and shellfish

A holistic and comprehensive data approach validates the distribution of the critically endangered flapper skate (Dipturus intermedius)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 516-528, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Morphological similarities between skates of the genus Dipturus in the north‐eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean have resulted in longstanding confusion, misidentification and misreporting. Current evidence indicates that the common skate is best explained as two species, the flapper skate (Dipturus intermedius) and the common blue skate (D ...

Spatio‐temporal dynamics of the common skate species complex: Evidence of increasing abundance

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 11, Page 2403-2415, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim The critically endangered common skate species complex is a large‐bodied and long‐lived batoid, which has experienced local extirpations and population declines over the past century mainly due to overfishing. Due to its decline, fisheries management measures were introduced to prevent further decline and fragmentation of populations.

Using Dynamic Ocean Color Provinces to Elucidate Drivers of North Sea Hydrography and Ecology

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 126, Issue 12, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Ocean biogeochemical provinces have historically been used to characterize regions of similar biogeography, allowing for large‐scale comparisons and the definition of possible management units. Recent studies have shown that ocean color (OC) may be used as a proxy for a range of physical and biological parameters, allowing for a more direct ...

Toward a better understanding of fish‐based contribution to ocean carbon flux

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 66, Issue 5, Page 1639-1664, May 2021., 2021
Abstract Fishes are the dominant vertebrates in the ocean, yet we know little of their contribution to carbon export flux at regional to global scales. We synthesize the existing information on fish‐based carbon flux in coastal and pelagic waters, identify gaps and challenges in measuring this flux and approaches to address them, and recommend research

Azores ecoregion – Ecosystem overview

open access: yes, 2021
For this overview, the Azores ecoregion corresponds to the Azores Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) inside ICES Subarea 10 (Figure 1). The ecoregion lies within a much larger open ocean ecosystem, and straddles the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR).

Azores ecoregion – fisheries overview

open access: yes, 2022
The majority of the fisheries in the Azores ecoregion are targeted by Azorean vessels. Only a small proportion of catch is taken by surface longliners from mainland Portugal and Spain targeting swordfish and blue shark.
