Increase in Harp Seal Ecosystem Role After the Cod Collapse in Newfoundland & Labrador
ABSTRACT Pinniped populations have been increasing worldwide, posing challenges for fisheries management, including damage to fishing gear and competition for resources. In the Northwest Atlantic, harp seal numbers have increased from 1.8 million in 1970 to 6.5 million in 1990, stabilising at 4.4 million in 2024—one of the largest pinniped populations ...

Incorporating Climate Change Impacts Within Harvest Strategies: An Overview of Approaches
ABSTRACT Ensuring that harvest strategies are robust to climate change is a top priority for many fisheries jurisdictions globally. This is because climate change is altering ecosystem structure and the productivity of marine species. We outline a range of approaches for incorporating climate change impacts within harvest strategies, including how a ...

Long‐Term Mobility of a Harvested, Rocky‐Reef Gastropod
ABSTRACT Stocks of Turbo militaris (Turbinidae) are under increasing harvesting pressure, but management is currently hampered by data deficiency. Management decisions for rocky‐reef gastropod fisheries should consider long‐term species mobility, yet this is often poorly understood. Therefore, mark‐recapture was used to evaluate annual displacement and

Marine Bird Bycatch in Alaska Salmon Gillnet Fisheries
ABSTRACT Incidental catch in gillnet fisheries has a substantial conservation impact on marine diving birds. We synthesized available marine bird bycatch data from Alaska salmon gillnet fisheries to estimate standardized bycatch rates, model factors influencing bycatch rates, and estimate total bycatch.

Mitigating Fish Entrainment With Fish Protection Screens at Water Pumping Sites
ABSTRACT The Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB) is one of the most regulated and fragmented river systems in Australia. The basin's extensive river infrastructure development has supported growing water demands for irrigation, industry, domestic, and electricity production, but increased use of pumps for water diversion threatens aquatic species and ...
