A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Governance Arrangements That Fit Social‐Ecological Context Are Associated With Fishery Sustainability

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In many parts of the world, natural resources are primarily managed by governance arrangements at the local level. Those arrangements range from collective, such as cooperatives and associations, to individualistic, such as patrons and owner‐operators.

Assessment of a Baited Remote Underwater Video Method to Evaluate American Lobster (Homarus americanus) Response to Baits in Nature

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The American Lobster (Homarus americanus) is the target of an extensive fishery in the Northwest Atlantic, yet there is no systematic method for evaluating relative performance of baits for the fishery. We used Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) to assess lobster attraction to commercial baits versus natural prey.

Factors Influencing the Stocking of Juvenile Pikeperch (Sander lucioperca)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predator species of fish play crucial roles in ecosystem balance through top‐down control, a mechanism frequently exploited in biomanipulation to stock predator species. Juvenile pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) were stocked (n = 52,887) in spring 2023 and 2024 and autumn 2023 to compare stocking efficiency between Recirculation Aquaculture ...

Orientation and Swimming Behavior of Saithe (Pollachius virens) Larvae Increases the Chance of Recruitment to Nursery Areas

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Saithe (Pollachius virens) is a semipelagic North Atlantic species supporting an important fishery. In the North Sea, saithe spawn east of the Shetland Islands, with larvae recruiting to coastal areas. Understanding the interaction between abiotic and biotic factors influencing larval dispersal is crucial for assessing their population ...

Long‐Term Trends in Juvenile Blue Crab Recruitment Patterns in a Wind‐Driven Estuary

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conserving exploited marine species requires understanding population dynamics across life stages and habitats. This study analyzes juvenile blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) recruitment trends in North Carolina's Albemarle‐Pamlico Estuarine System.
