The caliph and the falcons: a ninth‐century history from Iceland to Iraq

Early Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
In the late ninth and early tenth centuries, an extraordinary number of falcons were given to the ʿAbbāsid caliphs in Baghdad, many of which were white. Gifts from competing dynasties in the northern provinces of the Caliphate, at least some of these birds were almost certainly gyrfalcons from near the Arctic Circle.

A Review of a Decade of Anadromous Salmonid Hatchery (And Stocking) Research: Insights for Policy, Management and a Changing Climate

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hatcheries and stocking programmes have long been a cornerstone of fisheries management, seen as tools for fisheries enhancement and/or conservation of threatened populations. Their use draws controversy, however, from a growing body of research over the last 50 years suggesting that stocking can have negative consequences for wild stocks, and

Assessing the Progress of Stock Rebuilding in the Northeast Atlantic Against Levels That Can Produce Maximum Sustainable Yield

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rebuilding fish stocks to levels above which they produce Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) is a management aim for all European commercially exploited stocks. Progress is typically monitored against the fishing mortality that produces MSY in the long term (FMSY), however, the corresponding biomass target (BMSY) is rarely evaluated nor reported.

An Angler‐Friendly AI Pipeline for Self‐Reporting and Automatic Catch Analysis in Recreational Fisheries

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monitoring recreational fisheries is difficult: anglers are widely dispersed, gear and practices vary, and many species are involved, which leads to fragmented and scarce data. To address these issues, we developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI) pipeline that turns angler‐reported photos into standardised records of catch composition and ...

The Abrupt and Persistent Decline in Recruitment Success in Northeast Arctic Cod: A Review of Probable Causes

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most of the previously large cod stocks in the North Atlantic are depleted to very low levels. A notable exception has been the Northeast Arctic cod inhabiting the Barents Sea. This cod stock reached a record high level around 2013, but since then has declined sharply, with older fish being fished out and few new recruits entering the stock ...

Effects of the Invasive Round Goby on Swedish Recreational Fishing Values

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The round goby, an invasive fish from the Black and Caspian Seas, has spread to Swedish waters, threatening recreational fisheries. We modeled impacts on the future recreational fishery in Sweden using data from a recreational fishing survey, and estimated effects of the round goby on other fish species. Values attached to recreational fishing

KILLJOY POETICS IN ANTJE RÁVIK STRUBEL'S BLAUE FRAU (2021)

German Life and Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on Sara Ahmed's concept of killjoy activism, I explore how Antje Rávik Strubel's Blaue Frau employs a killjoy poetics that refuses to brush over violence, asymmetry, injury and force. Instead, the novel intervenes in affective textures of happiness and reconciliation, and forms activist and ecological networks of resistance. I build on

Storm events will simultaneously reduce foraging opportunities and affect movements of Red Knots (Calidris canutus) in the intertidal Wadden Sea

Ibis, EarlyView.
Intertidal systems provide important wintering areas for migratory shorebirds, where they can both forage and roost. In the light of climate change, extreme wind speeds are predicted to occur more frequently in northwestern Europe and pose a threat to shorebirds.
