Contemporary Foraging of the Hawaiian Monk Seal as a Retrospective Lens for Commercial Fishing and Its Relevance to Ecosystem‐Based Fishery Management

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This retrospective analysis explores how historical fishing activity (1948–2009) at French Frigate Shoals (FFS) can be examined in relation to the foraging ecology of Hawaiian monk seals. We bring together fisheries catch records, monk seal demographic information, and ecological studies on prey, competitors, and predators to evaluate ...

Monitoring small‐scale fisheries through participatory, app‐based surveys in the tropical archipelago of São Tomé and Príncipe

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Small Island Developing States have limited capacity to monitor Small Scale Fisheries, despite their high dependence on marine resources. Participatory monitoring of Small Scale Fisheries can fill data gaps while integrating resource users into fisheries management.

Characterization of salmon‐foraging harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) in the Erimo region, Hokkaido, Japan, using finite mixture models

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
Finite mixture models revealed that older, larger harbor seals specialize in salmon predation at setnets in Hokkaido, Japan, suggesting targeted management strategies focusing on these specialist individuals could effectively reduce fishery conflicts while protecting the broader seal population.

eDNA Metabarcoding as a Promising Conservation Tool to Monitor Fish Diversity in Indonesia Marine Protected Areas

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Oxford Nanopore eDNA metabarcoding detected 183 fish species in Karimunjawa National Park, with 87 species (38%) and 25 families (71%) overlapping with visual census, while also detecting nocturnal, pelagic, and migratory taxa missed visually. ABSTRACT Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) play a crucial role in conserving marine biodiversity while providing ...

Development and growth of hatchery-reared larval Florida pompano (Trachinotus carolinus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Although the Florida pompano (Trachinotus carolinus) is a prime candidate for aquaculture, the problematic production of juveniles remains a major impediment to commercial culture of this species.
