Changing fish trade and demand patterns in developing countries and their significance for policy research [PDF]
Trends for major fisheries products are evaluated for the past two decades, using aggregate annual data. Major changes have been propelled by income growth, changes in preferences and health concerns about meat in developed countries, leading to ...

Predicting oxygen thresholds of marine taxa to improve ecological forecasts
Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.Species' ranges are shifting in response to increasing temperature and decreasing oxygen in coastal oceans. Predicting these shifts is limited by information on physiological oxygen thresholds and how they depend on temperature. Here we collate laboratory‐derived measurements of a common oxygen threshold, pcrit, for 148 animal species that span six ...

Diet composition of fish species from the southern continental shelf of Colombia [PDF]
, 2002 The diet composition of 30 fish species belonging to 16 families from the Pacific Coast of Colombia is described. Benthic crustaceans (37.5%) and bony fishes (23.7%, chiefly demersal) were the most important food items for the fish species analyzed. Data

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.The study compared trawl and eDNA metabarcoding of demersal fish communities in an open ocean environment around the Faroe Islands. eDNA provided a comparable assessment of demersal species biomass and revealed additional spatial information on keystone species known to be under‐sampled by demersal trawls due to size and behavioral traits.

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.Environmental DNA metabarcoding reveals diverse animal communities across Cape Range and Cloates submarine canyons off Western Australia. Two assays detected 234 species spanning 125 families across 11 phyla, highlighting canyon‐specific assemblages and demonstrating the value of eDNA for establishing biodiversity baselines in remote and poorly ...

A bioregional classification of the continental shelf of northeastern North America for conservation analysis and planning based on representation [PDF]
, 2007 Understanding how well National Marine Sanctuaries and other marine protected areas represent the diversity of species present within and among the biogeographic regions where they occur is essential for assessing their conservation value and ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.Novel species‐specific eDNA qPCR assay for endangered Hong Kong Grouper (Epinephelus akaara) reveals low shedding rates and rapid decay. Rare, trace detections across Hong Kong waters confirm population rarity, demonstrating eDNA as a powerful non‐invasive tool for monitoring threatened marine fishes. ABSTRACT The Hong Kong Grouper (Epinephelus akaara)

Socioeconomic assessment of marine fisheries of Thailand [PDF]
Thailand is currently one of the ten largest fishing nations in the world. In 1996, fish production reached 3.7 million t with 90% of the production coming from the marine fisheries sector and 10% from inland fisheries.

Medium‐Range Predictability of the Wintertime Bering Sea Ice Edge Using Linear Inverse Modeling
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Beginning in autumn, sea ice expands into the southern Bering Sea, where it remains until spring. In winter, some commercial stocks, particularly crabs, thrive in ice‐infested areas, necessitating short‐lead forecasts of the ice edge for fishers.

Bycatch and discard issues in the Adriatic demersal fisheries
, 2023 Commercial fisheries exploiting the demersal resources of Western Adriatic Sea produce high bycatch and discard rates; the most important are bottom trawls, hydraulic dredges and passive nets. The five papers here published assess these fisheries’ impacts and investigate the potential of specific solutions to promote more sustainable exploitation ...
