The match/mismatch hypothesis and the feeding success of fish larvae in ice-covered southeastern Hudson Bay [PDF]
We studied the synchronism between the seasonal occurrence of fish larvae and their prey in ice-covered southeastern Hudson Bay, Canada, in spring 1988, 1989 and 1990. Arctic cod #Boreogadus saida$ and sand lance #Ammodytes$ sp.

Combined effects of crude oil exposure and warming on eggs and larvae of an arctic forage fish
Climate change, along with environmental pollution, can act synergistically on an organism to amplify adverse effects of exposure. The Arctic is undergoing profound climatic change and an increase in human activity, resulting in a heightened risk of ...

Gastrointestinal evacuation of particulate matter in polar cod Boreogadus saida [PDF]
Gastrointestinal evacuation of inert particles was monitored in the polar cod Boreogadus saida (Lepechin), held at a temperature of 0.5°C. Fish (31.8 g ± 0.8 SD) were fed a moist diet, based on natural prey items, containing a particulate marker. Evacuation of marker from the gastrointestinal tract started 48 h after ingestion of a meal.

Developmental Patterns of Hepatic Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR) Expression in Xenopus laevis and Response to Pharmaceutical Agonists During Metamorphic Climax. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors (PPAR) are master transcriptional regulators that maintain metabolic homeostasis in vertebrates. Amphibians are often exposed to endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) that could dysregulate lipid metabolism.

Can vertical separation of species in trawls be utilized to reduce bycatch in shrimp fisheries?
Several shrimp trawl fisheries use a Nordmöre sorting grid to avoid bycatch of fish. However, small fish can pass through the grid. Therefore, the retention of juvenile fish often remains an issue during shrimp trawling.

High gene flow in polar cod (Boreogadus saida) from West-Svalbard and the Eurasian Basin.
The current and projected environmental change of the Arctic Ocean contrasts sharply with the limited knowledge of its genetic biodiversity. Polar cod Boreogadus saida (Lepechin, 1774) is an abundant circumpolar marine fish and ecological key species ...

Foraging ecology of ringed seals (Pusa hispida), beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas) and narwhals (Monodon monoceros) in the Canadian High Arctic determined by stomach content and stable isotope analysis [PDF]
Stomach content and stable isotope analysis (δ13C and δ15N from liver and muscle) were used to identify habitat and seasonal prey selection by ringed seals (Pusa hispida; n=21), beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas; n=13) and narwhals (Monodon monoceros;
