Projected Warming of the Southern Ocean Disrupts Embryonic Development and Hatch Timing in Antarctic Fish

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Embryos are particularly sensitive to thermal challenge. Antarctic fish embryos raised at projected Southern Ocean temperatures hatch during the winter, have a high incidence of morphological abnormalities, have shorter body lengths, and express genes indicative of cellular stress.

Long‐term recovery and food web response of benthic macrofauna following cessation of bottom trawling in a marine protected area

Conservation Science and Practice
The understanding of the depletion of species and communities and recovery following the reduction of pressures is fundamental in conservation biology. The impact of bottom trawl fisheries on benthic communities has been well studied, but there are few ...

Quantifying the Physical Impact of Bottom Trawling Based on High-Resolution Bathymetric Data

Remote Sensing, 2022
Bottom trawling is one of the most significant anthropogenic pressures on physical seafloor integrity. The objective classification of physical impact is important to monitor ongoing fishing activities and to assess the regeneration of seafloor integrity

From commons to commoning as resistance efforts to blue injustice: A sociohistorical and ethnographical approach

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the last 20 years, collaborative efforts have emerged with the intention of going beyond the pure capitalist economy, seeking to generate transformative community‐based changes that guarantee blue equity, fair distribution and well‐being.

Batho-spatial distribution pattern and biomass estimate of the major demersal fishes in Lake Victoria [PDF]

, 1974
A generalized bottom trawl exploratory survey was carried out on Lake Victoria to: (i) define the distributional pattern and magnitude of the lakewide demersal stocks, (ii) determine the commercial potential of Haplochromis spp.

Incorporating environmental DNA metabarcoding for improved benthic biodiversity and habitat mapping

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Seafloor imagery is commonly used to collect information about the distribution of benthic organisms in order to generate habitat and biodiversity maps. Recent advances in genomics (e.g., environmental DNA; eDNA) show potential to complement video surveys for habitat mapping, but there have been few examples testing this.

Assessment of the current status and effectiveness of area-based conservation measures banning trawling activities in the Adriatic Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The marine environment is highly stressed by anthropogenic pressures, among which fisheries, and in particular bottom trawling, are one of the main sources of impact.

Uncovering Semantic Patterns in Sustainability Research: A Systematic NLP Review

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study maps how Natural Language Processing (NLP) contributes to sustainability. Using a PRISMA‐guided review of 131 English‐language articles from Web of Science (2018–2025), we combine bibliometric co‐word mapping with BERTopic to derive complementary structural and semantic views. Four themes emerge: Topic 0—Climate Change Discourse and
