Evaluating Aversion to Eye‐Like Stimuli as a Foraging Deterrent in Urban European Herring Gulls

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We tested whether eye‐like and high contrast patterns on takeaway food boxes deterred urban herring gulls from approaching and pecking at food boxes. Gulls were slower to approach and less likely to peck at boxes with eyes, and the deterrent effect persisted in the short‐term for some gulls. When used alongside other deterrents, eye‐like stimuli may be

Strategic Joint Production Under Common-Pool Output Quotas: The Case of Fisheries Bycatch [PDF]

open access: yes
We develop a simple game-theoretic model to explain the production decisions of firms when the production of a marketed good is complementary with the output of an associated good for which no market is available and the output of both goods is regulated

Novel Assay for Endangered Hong Kong Grouper (Epinephelus akaara) to Assess eDNA Shedding, Decay, and Population Status

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Novel species‐specific eDNA qPCR assay for endangered Hong Kong Grouper (Epinephelus akaara) reveals low shedding rates and rapid decay. Rare, trace detections across Hong Kong waters confirm population rarity, demonstrating eDNA as a powerful non‐invasive tool for monitoring threatened marine fishes. ABSTRACT The Hong Kong Grouper (Epinephelus akaara)

Limno‐STOICH: A comprehensive database linking the elemental stoichiometry of organisms with inland aquatic habitats

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract All organisms contain carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in widely ranging amounts and proportions. Integrating existing datasets enables quantification of this variation at global scales. Such efforts could leverage ecological stoichiometry theory, the study of elemental supply and imbalances in ecological interactions, to connect ecological ...

Discards in fisheries - a summary of three decades of research at IMARES and LEI [PDF]

open access: yes
Discards and the possible ecological and economic effects of discarding are a hot topic in discussions about sustainable fisheries. The perception of the effects of discarding differs between parties and it is influenced by the ecosystem functioning and ...

Passive Acoustic Monitoring Reveals New Insights Into the Acoustic Occurrence and Foraging Activity of Hector's Dolphins in Porpoise Bay, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
To effectively mitigate disturbances from human activities on vulnerable dolphin populations, it is crucial to understand fine‐scale variation in habitat use. This study investigated the habitat utilisation of a small subpopulation of Hector's dolphins (Cephalorhynchus hectori) in Porpoise Bay, New Zealand.

Meeting Livestock Protein and Amino Acids Needs With Edible Insects: A Critical Review

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
Comparison of the use of traditional protein sources (soybean meal and fish meal) and insects meal in monogastrics and aquaculture (created in BioRender. Luttenschlager, H. (2025) https://BioRender.com/ndztqxp) ABSTRACT The increasing demand for animal‐based protein has led to biodiversity loss, deforestation, pollution, and extensive land use, mainly ...
