Local oceanographic variability strongly influences the spawning distribution of blue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou). Here, we explore the potential of using a dynamic Earth System Model (ESM) to forecast the suitable spawning habitat of blue whiting

Morphometry of southern blue whiting Micromesistius australis (Norman, 1937)-from the region of Burdwood Bank [PDF]
Morphometric characteristic of southern blue whiting is presented. It embraces 31 measurable and 9 meristic features. Studies were made on 119 fishes (44 females and 75 males) caught near the Burdwood Bank in the period March-April, 1981.

Spatially explicit estimates of stock sizes, structure and biomass of herring and blue whiting, and catch data of bluefin tuna [PDF]
The North Atlantic is a productive marine region which has supported important commercial fisheries for centuries. Many of these fisheries have exploited the pelagic species, including herring, blue whiting and tuna.

Effects of pH, temperature, and time of heating on autoproteolysis rate in blue whiting, Micromesistius poutassou (Risso, 1826), meat [PDF]
Effects of pH, temperature, and time of incubation on intensity of autoproteolysis in blue whiting, Micromesistius poutassou, meat were studied. The autoproteolysis rate was assessed from the release of amino nitrogen, nonprotein nitrogen, and peptides.

Aspects of embryonic development in two southwest Atlantic gadiform fish: tadpole codling, Salilota australis (Moridae), and southern blue whiting, Micromesistius australis (Gadidae) [PDF]
Background. Tadpole codling, Salilota australis (Günther, 1878), (known also as red cod) and southern blue whiting, Micromesistius australis Norman, 1937, are two commercially important species, which spawning grounds are situated in the ...
