Marine heatwaves are not a dominant driver of change in demersal fishes [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2023
Marine heatwaves have been linked to negative ecological effects in recent decades1,2. If marine heatwaves regularly induce community reorganization and biomass collapses in fishes, the consequences could be catastrophic for ecosystems, fisheries and human communities3,4.

Cleaner Fish Labroides dimidiatus Presence Does Not Indirectly Affect Demersal Zooplankton

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Coral reef mutualisms involve complex trophic ecological relationships that produce indirect effects. Excluding mutualistic cleaner fish Labroides dimidiatus from reefs indirectly increases the abundance of many fishes and reduces demersal stages of ...

Taxonomic distinctness of demersal fishes of the California current: moving beyond simple measures of diversity for marine ecosystem-based management. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Large-scale patterns or trends in species diversity have long interested ecologists. The classic pattern is for diversity (e.g., species richness) to decrease with increasing latitude.

The influence of offshore windpower on demersal fish [PDF]

open access: yesICES Journal of Marine Science, 2006
Abstract A significant expansion of offshore windpower is expected in northwestern Europe in the near future. Little is known about the impacts it may have on the marine environment. Here, we investigate the potential for wind turbines to function as artificial reefs and fish aggregation devices (FADs), i.e.

A sensitivity-based procedure to select representative fish species for the Marine Strategy Framework Directive indicator development, applied to the Greater North Sea

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Harmonizing biodiversity assessments under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) at the pan-European level is a crucial task for the Regional Sea Conventions and EU Member States in the coming years, particularly for fish assessment in ...

New records of ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) from Puerto Morelos Reef National Park (Mexican Caribbean) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2023
We documented the nearshore ray-finned fishes in Puerto Morelos Reef National Park (PMRNP) by sampling 57 localities, including rocky intertidal pools, sandy bottoms, Thalassia beds, coral reefs, artificial reefs, karstic-slab bottoms, demersal-pelagic ...

Seasonal and interannual variability of fish species composition in catches of bottom nets in the Russian waters of the Kunashir Strait

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2023
Seasonal and interannual variability of the demersal fish species composition is considered for the depths of 70–315 m in the eastern Kunashir Strait on the data obtained in 1998–2014.

Bentho-pelagic relations in the deep-water part of the Okhotsk Sea by the data of stable isotopes С and N analysis

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2015
Composition, abundance, diet and trophic status are analyzed for dominant benthic and pelagic species in the deep-water Okhotsk Sea on the data collected in demersal and pelagic trawl surveys conducted by Pacific Fisheries Research Center (TINRO ...

Cadmium accumulation in coastal demersal fish [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2006
The hepatic Cd burden, measured on 291 individuals of 4 species of demersal fish (Gadus morhua, Reinhardtius hippoglossoides, Hippoglossoides platessoides, and Raja radiata), is 2 to 5 times higher in fish from the open Gulf of St. Lawrence than in fish from the St. Lawrence Estuary, 600 km landward. The higher Cd burden in the open Gulf is not related

Trophic Ecology of Deep-Sea Megafauna in the Ultra-Oligotrophic Southeastern Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The trophic ecology of fourteen species of demersal fishes and six species of demersal decapod crustaceans from the continental slope and rise of the Southeastern Mediterranean Sea (SEMS) was examined using stable isotope analysis. Mean δ13C values among
