Review of marine fish zoogeography of Chilean Patagonia (42º- 57º S)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 1999
From bibliographical information on bathymetric and latitudinal distribution of 110 marine fish species of western Patagonia (42º-57ºS), the ichthyogeographic zonation of the area is discussed.

Fish landings and Oman shelf area

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2016
Data from five field surveys carried out along the shelf in the 20-250m depth range and historical data on artisanal fishery were analyzed. A positive linear relationship between the demersal fish biomass and the shelf area was pronounced for a certain ...

Distribution of Demersal Fishes on Unconsolidated Bottom Habitat of the Northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Benthic habitat on the continental shelf in the northern Gulf of Mexico (NGoM) is dominated by large plains of unconsolidated terrigenous sediment. This unconsolidated bottom habitat (UBH) is presumed to be sparsely inhabited by demersal fishes, and ...

DNA barcoding and misidentification of some marine fish species in Nigerian industrial trawl fishery

open access: yesScientific African, 2023
Identification of marine fishes across their geographical distribution is based primarily on morphological features. The ability of marine fishes to adapt to environmental changes sometimes leads to morphological differences that might give rise to wrong

Using hydrodynamics to modify fishing performance of a demersal fishing gear

open access: yesFisheries Research, 2023
This study demonstrates how hydrodynamics can be used to influence the fishing performance of towed demersal fishing gears. Sea trials are performed in the sea star fishery to show how modifications to the gear design alter the hydrodynamics of the turbulent wake and consequently affect the catching performance of trawl gears.

Supplements to the generalized quantitative assessments of benthic macrofauna in the Far Eastern Seas and adjacent waters of the Pacific Ocean. Report 1. Regional features of distribution for biomass of fish

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2016
Long-term information on mean annual biomass of the main taxa of bottom and demersal fishes on the shelf and upper continental slope (down to 2025 m) in the Far Eastern Seas and adjacent Pacific waters is summarized.

Testing the Improvement of Coral Reef Associated Fish Distribution Models Based on Multibeam Bathymetry by Adding Seafloor Backscatter Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Demersal fishes constitute an essential component of the continental shelf ecosystem, and a significant element of fisheries catch around the world. However, collecting distribution and abundance data of demersal fish, necessary for their conservation ...

Occurrence of Antimicrobial-Resistant Bacteria in Intestinal Contents of Wild Marine Fish in Chile

open access: yesAntibiotics
Antimicrobial-resistant bacteria (ARB) from the intestinal contents of wild fish may have a relevant ecological significance and could be used as indicators of antimicrobial-resistance dissemination in natural bacterial populations in water bodies ...
