Long-distance movements and associated diving behaviour of ringed seals (Pusa hispida) in the eastern Canadian Arctic

open access: yesArctic Science, 2021
Animal distribution and movement facilitate energy and nutrient transfer within and between regions, thus influencing ecosystem structure and function. Ringed seals (Pusa hispida (Schreber, 1775)) have been observed making sustained, extensive migrations

Which attributes of restored oyster reefs provide the best habitat for sportfish?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoration practitioners seek to restore oyster ecosystems as habitat designed for species targeted by recreational fisheries, but they require information on which specific habitat parameters of oyster reefs are preferred by fish.

Vertical Habitat Use by Japanese Jack Mackerel Trachurus japonicus Inferred From a Biologging Study in Tokyo Bay

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 518-531, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The movement ecology of Trachurus japonicus in the adult stage remains poorly understood because observing their underwater behavior over long periods is challenging. This study aimed to examine vertical habitat use by T. japonicus using electronic tags. Ninety fish were tagged and released in November 2022 in Tokyo Bay, Japan.

The First Attempt of Satellite Tracking on Occurrence and Migration of Bryde’s Whale (Balaenoptera edeni) in the Beibu Gulf

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Satellite-tagging is increasingly becoming a powerful biotelemetry approach to obtain remote measurement through tracking free-living cetaceans, which can fill knowledge gaps on cetaceans and facilitate conservation management.

Methods to estimate marine functional connectivity: A primer

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 4, June 2026.
Abstract Organism movement is a key process in the transfer of individuals, genes, functional traits, matter, and energy among habitat patches, at sea and across the land–sea interface. The resulting fluxes, collectively termed marine functional connectivity (MFC), underpin planetary health and an array of ecosystem services.

First description of in situ chlorophyll fluorescence signal within East Antarctic coastal polynyas during fall and winter

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Antarctic coastal polynyas are persistent and recurrent regions of open water located between the coast and the drifting pack-ice. In spring, they are the first polar areas to be exposed to light, leading to the development of phytoplankton blooms ...

Long‐Term Trends of Striped Bass Habitat Suitability Under a Temperature–Oxygen Squeeze in Lake Texoma, Oklahoma and Texas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study examined the impact of summer temperature–oxygen squeezes on striped bass habitat, population size, and body condition in Lake Texoma from 1995 to 2020. Although suitable habitat volume consistently declined each summer, with temperature and oxygen influencing habitat in threshold‐dependent ways, we found no clear effects on striped bass ...

Effect of Biologger Attachment on the Stress and Health State of the Spotted Sea Bass Lateolabrax maculatus

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The biologger is a widely used tool in biotelemetry for investigating marine fish. However, studies reported that the attachment of biologgers has a negative effect on the target organisms.

Simultaneous observation of intermittent locomotion of multiple fish by fine-scale spatiotemporal three-dimensional positioning. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Recent advances in biotelemetry techniques, especially positioning methods, have revealed the detailed behaviour and movement of aquatic organisms. Behavioural intermittence in animal locomotion, such as the Lévy walk, is a popular topic in the field of ...

Pygmy Blue Whale Diving Behaviour Reflects Song Structure

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Passive acoustic monitoring is increasingly employed to monitor whales, their population size, habitat usage, and behaviour. However, in the case of the eastern Indian Ocean pygmy blue whale (EIOPB whale), its applicability is limited by our lack of ...
