The Seasonal Rhythms of Coastal eDNA: Insights Into Biodiversity and Regional Detection Patterns

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Seasonal variation affects environmental DNA (eDNA) detection, yet its influence on species monitoring remains underexplored. This study examines eDNA detection windows across taxa, primers, and regions, finding that most species have short detection periods (1–2 months) that vary with taxonomy and primer choice. These results underscore the importance

An Oceanography‐Based Anticipatory Approach to Monitoring Fisheries and Fishery Resource Impacts From Offshore Wind Farms: A Perspective From the Mid‐Atlantic Bight, USA

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 5-21, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) of the eastern US differs from other offshore wind (OSW) development sites due to a unique seasonal oceanographic stratification regime. Fisheries there target migratory finfish and sedentary shellfish, the productivity and distribution of which are driven by oceanography with dynamic mesoscale features that can

Oocyte Development and Fecundity Strategy in Cage‐Reared Pearlspot, Etroplus suratensis (Cichlidae): A Histological and Statistical Approach

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The progression of oocyte development and patterns of oocyte recruitment are key indicators of reproductive strategy in fishes. The present study examines, for the first time, the fecundity strategy of cage‐reared Etroplus suratensis in Vembanad Lake using four indicators: (a) the oocyte size frequency distribution across ovarian reproductive phases ...

Diet and Trophic Ecology of Invasive Blue Catfish Ictalurus furcatus in an Eastern Shore Tributary of the Chesapeake Bay

Fishes
Blue Catfish Ictalurus furcatus were first introduced to Virginia tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay in the 1970s and have greatly expanded in population size and distribution, prompting ecological and economic concerns.

Toxicity and effects of bromoform on five marine species [PDF]

, 1979
Bromoform has been identified as the single most abundant halogenated organic compound produced by the chlorination of marine waters. To determine the potential biological effects of its release into marine waters, short-term toxicity bioassays and 28 ...

Fishers' Local Ecological Knowledge Reveals Complex Food Web Dynamics With Rapidly Warming Waters

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 1122-1133, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Local ecological knowledge (LEK) can provide insight into ecosystem change, particularly in dynamic ecological conditions, such as those driven by climate change. In New England lobster fisheries, warming waters have the potential to disrupt food webs, as range‐shifting species introduce novel ecological interactions.

Recruitment of larval Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) to North Carolina and New Jersey estuaries: evidence for larval transport northward along the east coast of the United States [PDF]

, 2002
Age, size, abundance, and birthdate distributions were compared for larval Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) collected weekly during their estuarine recruitment seasons in 1989–90, 1990–91, and 1992–93 in lower estuaries near Beaufort, North ...

Persisting Versus Relocating: Evidence That Marine Species Deploy Both Strategies in Compensation to Warming

Marine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Marine species distributions reflect fundamental ecological interactions, and analyzing their patterns helps identify key drivers of change and enhances our understanding of shifting habitats and ecosystem responses. In response to ocean warming, marine species exhibit a range of accommodations, including tolerance to thermal changes and ...
