Joint Spatiotemporal Models for the Estimation of Prey Consumption and Predator–Prey Overlap: Dynamics of Pacific Cod Predation on Snow and Tanner Crab in the Eastern Bering Sea

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 370-385, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) are important predators of juvenile snow (Chionoecetes opilio) and Tanner crab (Chionoecetes bairdi) in the eastern Bering Sea (EBS), yet the relationship between cod–crab spatial overlap and total crab consumption is only partially understood.

Evaluation of Catch Performance and Environmental Impact of Technical Gear Modifications for a More Sustainable Scallop Dredging Fishery

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Catch and environmental performance of modified scallop dredge designs were assessed. Skid belly bags increased scallop catch by 14%–19% and reduced gear wear. N‐Virodredge reduced catch of scallop juveniles and sorting time. Gear footprint on the seabed was reduced by 50% for skid belly bags. N‐Virodredge cut fuel use by 30%, reducing carbon emissions

Genetic Structure of Blue Ling, Molva dypterygia, in the North Atlantic

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The blue ling, a deep‐water fish in the Northeast Atlantic, has experienced severe population declines since the 1970s due to intensive fishing. Genetic analysis across fjords and offshore regions using 61 SNPs revealed weak but significant differentiation, rejecting the idea of a single randomly mating population.

The Unseen Crisis of Sharks and Rays in Senegal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents a conservative quantitative assessment of shark and ray landings and trade in Senegal, revealing extensive exploitation of threatened species. Surveys at two major artisanal processing sites in the Casamance region recorded over 170,000 individuals, mostly rays, with nearly all biomass comprising species at risk of extinction, and ...

First Record of a Presumed Risso's Dolphin Calf Associated With a Bottlenose Dolphin in the Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
During a survey in June 2025, researchers recorded a presumed Risso's dolphin calf swimming in echelon position within a bottlenose dolphin group off the Catalan coast (north‐eastern Iberian Peninsula). Two possible interpretations are discussed: (1) it may represent the first hybrid calf reported in the Mediterranean, or (2) it may be the first ...
