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

Marine 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 ...

Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer: the evolution of a cancer syndrome

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 2636-2651, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer (HDGC) is a high risk cancer syndrome caused predominantly by germline mutations in the CDH1 gene. HDGC is characterised by a lifetime risk of advanced diffuse‐type gastric (stomach) cancer of up to 70%, and an additional 40% lifetime risk of lobular breast cancer in women.

Incorporating Climate Change Impacts Within Harvest Strategies: An Overview of Approaches

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 942-956, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Ensuring that harvest strategies are robust to climate change is a top priority for many fisheries jurisdictions globally. This is because climate change is altering ecosystem structure and the productivity of marine species. We outline a range of approaches for incorporating climate change impacts within harvest strategies, including how a ...
