Continuing Long-Term Shifts in Larval Fish Phenology in the Southern California Current Ecosystem Are Matched by Rapid Advances in the North. [PDF]
Using two datasets with multiple decades of data, we find that larval fish in the northeast Pacific are, on average, appearing earlier in the year over time. These shifts can be partially explained by shifts in the seasonality of ocean temperature, upwelling, and prey abundance.

Food habits and dietary variability of pelagic nekton off Oregon and Washington, 1979-1984 [PDF]
The food habits of 20 species of pelagic nekton were investigated from collections made with small-mesh purse seines from 1979-84 off Washington and Oregon. Four species (spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias; soupfin shark, Galeorhinus zyopterus; blue shark,

Abstract Electroanaesthesia using electric fish handling gloves induced rapid and reversible sedation of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) during surgical tagging without observable adverse effects on behaviour or tag retention. In the laboratory, survival analyses revealed that longer handling times and smaller body sizes significantly reduced ...

Southern California marine sport fishing from privately owned boats: catch and effort for October-December 1982 [PDF]
The catch landed and effort expended by private-boat sport fishermen were studied in southern California marine waters between October and December 1982, to determine the impact of one segment of the sport fishery on local marine resources.

Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Status of the spawning biomass of the Pacific sardine, 1975-1976 [PDF]
In order to initiate a fishery for the Pacific sardine, Sardinops sajax caeruleus, it is required that the spawning biomass be determined to have reached a minimum of 20,000 short tons.

ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...
