Marine Mammals in the Anthropocene: Developing a Systematic Evidence Base of Threats to Nineteen Species

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Marine mammals are vulnerable to a variety of anthropogenic threats, yet a global systematic map of the literature for 19 species found both spatial and temporal disparity in research effort between threats and between species. There are knowledge gaps for species and threats, with effort unequal across many species' ranges.

Costs and Returns Analysis for South Carolina Shrimp Trawlers [PDF]

open access: yes
This document provides an explanation on how shrimp trawler owners/operators can analyze the effects of changing costs and ex-vessel prices on the profitability of operating a shrimp trawler.

Active Transport of Carbon to Demersal Fish Communities in Shelf‐Slope‐Abyssal Systems of the North Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The biological carbon pump sequesters carbon through passive fluxes of biologically derived carbon, and by active vertical movement of marine organisms. Trophic coupling between pelagic and benthic communities increases the efficiency of the biological carbon pump as less carbon is lost to remineralization.

Key drivers of at‐vessel mortality in demersal sharks

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Chondrichthyans are highly vulnerable to fisheries overexploitation, and postcapture mortality poses a significant threat to most species. Global bycatch mitigation guidelines recommend adopting hierarchical decision‐making approaches tailored to species‐specific vulnerabilities and socioeconomic and regulatory contexts.

Mapping Mediterranean bentho‐demersal communities to better inform marine conservation

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Marine protected areas are one of the most common conservation tools being implemented worldwide to reach conservation targets, but their implementation does not usually take the heterogeneous distribution of bentho‐demersal communities into account.

Achieving Full Representativity of Seafloor Biodiversity With Minimal Expansion: Exploring a Strategy for New Zealand Marine Conservation

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim A key element of the Global Biodiversity Framework Target 3 is ‘representativity’, which refers to the inclusion of the full range of existing ecosystems, ecological processes and regions within protected areas, with the aim of ensuring that the full spectrum of biodiversity is protected.

Limited Dispersal Drives Strong Genetic Structure in the Commercially Harvested Gastropod Buccinum undatum in the Western North Atlantic

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Direct‐developing species lack the pelagic larval phase which facilitates connectivity in most marine species. Consequently, they tend to exhibit spatially restricted dispersal and increased population structure. When subject to harvesting, this biological constraint increases their vulnerability to localized depletion, as local aggregations ...
