Stocks of demersal fishes on the depths of 20-200 m in the northwestern Bering Sea are considered, excluding walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma , on the data of 10 bottom trawl surveys conducted in the summer-fall of 1985-2015.

Tracking the impact of bottom trawling on benthic habitat status
Abstract Bottom trawling is the most widespread physical disturbance to marine benthic habitats, yet broadscale assessments of its impact remain limited. We developed a quantitative framework to evaluate trawling effects on benthic habitats at broad spatial scales based on the sentinels of seabed (SoS) indicator.

Habitat specialization in tropical continental shelf demersal fish assemblages. [PDF]
The implications of shallow water impacts such as fishing and climate change on fish assemblages are generally considered in isolation from the distribution and abundance of these fish assemblages in adjacent deeper waters.

Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania
Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences

Abundance and species composition are investigated for demersal fish at the oceanic side of southern Kuril Islands on the data of the bottom trawl survey in the depth range 100-1400 m conducted in the spring of 2009 (for the first time at the continental

Trophic interactions and distribution of some Squaliforme sharks, including new diet descriptions for Deania calcea and Squalus acanthias. [PDF]
Squaliforme sharks are a common but relatively vulnerable bycatch in many deep water fisheries. Eleven species of squaliforme shark are commonly caught at depths of 200-1200 m on Chatham Rise, New Zealand, and their diversity suggests they might occupy ...

ABSTRACT Recreational fisheries in Türkiye constitute an understudied socio‐economic sector spanning marine and freshwater ecosystems across the Mediterranean and Black Sea basins, yet robust national participation estimates remain constrained by the absence of a comprehensive registry or probability‐based sampling frame.

Fine-scale proximity to offshore wind turbine foundations increases biomass of demersal fish species
Offshore wind turbine fixed-bottom foundations provide artificial hard substrate through the water column that encourages marine flora and fauna to colonise and aggregate around the introduced structures, a well-documented phenomenon known as the ...

Stock of demersal fish species at the depths of 20–386 m in the northwestern Bering Sea, as well as pelagic and anadromous fishes in the bottom biotopes, are considered on the data of the bottom trawl survey conducted within the West-Bering and Chukchi ...

Impact of fishing on size composition and diversity of demersal fish communities [PDF]
By analysing data sets from different world regions we add evidence to documented changes in demersal fish community structure that may be related to fishing. Changes are analysed by community properties that might be expected to capture relevant overall changes – size spectra slopes and intercepts, Shannon-Wiener diversity, and dominance.
