Length‐Based Spawning Potential Ratio Assessment of Key Species From a Remote Recreational Fishery at Diego Garcia, Indian Ocean

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recreational fisheries in remote regions often operate under limited regulation and data availability, presenting challenges for sustainable management. Diego Garcia, located within the Chagos Marine Protected Area, hosts a unique recreational reef fishery embedded within a highly protected environment. We assessed the stock status of five key

Subtropical marine reserve as key habitats for the critically endangered sand tiger shark (Carcharias taurus) in the Southwestern Atlantic

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study documents the occurrence, seasonal patterns and reproductive activity of the sand tiger shark (Carcharias taurus) within a no‐take marine protected area in southeastern Brazil, using Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) and diving records.

The Coral Probiotics Village: An Underwater Laboratory to Tackle the Coral Reefs Crisis

Ecology and Evolution
Restoration efforts are urgently needed for the conservation of coral reefs. Among emerging tools, the use of probiotics has shown promise in laboratory settings for improving coral resilience, but their validation under real‐world reef conditions ...

Soundscape analysis reveals fine ecological differences among coral reef habitats

Ecological Indicators
Recording soundscapes in coral reef ecosystems provides an efficient, non-invasive method for ecosystem monitoring and conservation. This study assesses the ecological relevance of coral reef soundscapes, validating their utility for conservation ...

Listening to tuna: Acoustic characterization of captive juvenile yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The effectiveness of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) for studying marine biodiversity highly relies on comprehensive libraries of species‐specific sounds. While sound production is well‐documented in reef and freshwater fishes, the acoustic behaviour of ecologically and economically vital pelagic species like tunas still remains largely ...

Impacts of predator odours and conspecific disturbance cues on minnow thermal tolerance

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Warming waters can affect fish community dynamics, potentially exacerbating predator–prey asymmetries in behavioural and physiological metrics of thermal tolerance. Further, differing responses of prey fish species to concurrent predation risk and warming highlight the need to understand these impacts in various contexts, especially with at ...

Monitoring coral reefs, seagrasses and mangroves in Costa Rica (CARICOMP).

Revista de biologia tropical, 2010
Los arrecifes coralinos, pastos marinos y manglares de la costa Caribe de Costa Rica han sido monitoreados desde 1999 siguiendo el protocolo de CARICOMP. La cobertura de coral vivo en el arrecife de Meager Shoal (7 a 10m de profundidad) en el Parque Nacional Cahuita, aumentó de 13.3% en 1999, a 28.2% en 2003, pero después bajó, por los siguientes 5 ...

When mesophotic meets shallow: First records of deep‐associated reef fishes in a well‐studied tropical bay under the influence of spring–summer upwelling

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract We document the first records of reef fishes typically associated with mesophotic environments on shallow (<10 m) coral reefs inside a well‐studied tropical bay. The vermilion snapper Rhomboplites aurorubens and the pygmy angelfish Centropyge aurantonotus, usually restricted to deeper (>40 m) shelf habitats along the Brazilian coast, were ...

Melanoma and Other Melanistic Lesions in Brown Bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus From Waterbodies in the Northeastern United States and Canada: Identification of Risk Factors

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Melanistic lesions, including non‐raised black areas due to proliferations of melanocytes and melanomacrophages in the dermis and epidermis, as well as raised black areas consistent with melanoma, are described in brown bullhead (BBH) Ameiurus nebulosus from three water bodies in the northeastern United States and Quebec, Canada.
