Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Footprint of sustained poleward warm water flow within East Antarctic submarine canyons

Nature Communications
The intrusion of relatively warm water onto the continental shelf is widely recognized as a threat to Antarctic ice shelves and glaciers grounded below sea level, as enhanced ocean heat increases their basal melt.

Distribution of surface sediments off Indus delta on the continental shelf of Pakistan [PDF]

, 1993
Surface sediments from the continental shelf area off Indus delta were analysed for their textural characteristics and carbonate content. The sediments are largely silt, silty clay and clayey silty sand.

Fisheries Trade and Blue Nutrient Flows in Pacific Island Countries

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pacific Island Countries (PICs) are located in highly productive fishing regions that supply nutrient‐rich fish to global markets. Marine fisheries are a critical source of protein and essential micronutrients for billions of people worldwide, supporting both local diets and global food security.

A simplified semi-empirical model for multifrequency seafloor backscattering angular response (ESAB)

Frontiers in Remote Sensing
A new approach to seafloor acoustic backscatter prediction and inversion is presented here and applied to an experimental dataset. Based on a frequency-dependent semi-empirical geometrical-physical description, the Extended Seabed Acoustic Backscatter ...

Circulation in the Chesapeake Bay entrance region: Estuary-shelf interaction [PDF]

Current meters and temperature-salinity recorders confirm the assumption that the upper layers of the continental shelf waters off Chesapeake Bay can be banded in summer, such that the coastal boundary layer (consisting of the Bay outflow) and the outer ...

Post‐Release Survival of the Pelagic Stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea, Bonaparte, 1832) in French Longline Fisheries in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bycatch remains a critical challenge in global fisheries, even when using selective gears such as longlines. In the French longline fishery targeting Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the Gulf of Lion, the common pelagic stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea) is the primary bycatch species.

Environmental Drivers of Jumbo Squid During Fishery Collapse in the Gulf of California (2019–2024)

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) is a cephalopod endemic to the eastern Pacific with significant ecological and economic importance. Its exploitation in the Gulf of California (GC) peaked in the 1990s, with catches exceeding 100,000 tons, but collapsed in 2009 and virtually disappeared by 2015, largely due to environmental changes and ...
