Seabirds serve as key indicators of marine environmental changes, with adult survival being a critical parameter for assessing population health. Iceland hosts some of the largest seabird populations in the North Atlantic, making it a valuable location for studying long‐term trends in seabird demographics.

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

Abstract The efficiency of feed use in aquaculture may be improved by integrating the culture of extractive species into fed‐species systems. This study assessed the impact of including curimba (Prochilodus lineatus) in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) production during the grow‐out phase in earthen ponds.

Abstract This study aimed to identify species compositions that use resources more efficiently and recommend management practices for extensive and semi‐intensive pond polyculture by modeling food webs and calculating performance indicators. We monitored 8 polyculture fish ponds managed by fish farmers that had contrasting fish species compositions in ...
