Bathyal demersal fishes of Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone region (49–54°N) of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge: II. Baited camera lander observations

open access: yesDeep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2013
AbstractDemersal fishes appearing at baited cameras at 2500m depth either side of the axis of the Northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR) at 54°N and 49°, north and south of the Charlie Gibbs fracture Zone respectively, showed significant differences in species composition between north and south.

Polar cod Boreogadus saida occurrence is driven by temperature at the margin of its distribution

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract With a warming Arctic, suitable habitat for polar cod Boreogadus saida (Lepechin 1774) is predicted to decrease. We investigated the changes in distribution of polar cod on the southern limit of its distribution in the Atlantic Ocean (around Iceland) during both autumn and spring after a recent period of warming in the area.

A bioregional classification of the continental shelf of northeastern North America for conservation analysis and planning based on representation [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

Attraction and avoidance of wild demersal fish and crustaceans to open-net aquaculture pens resolved by baited and towed underwater camera surveys

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Wild gadoids are known to have close associations with open-net fish farms, leading to concerns about changes in natural fish distribution and feeding patterns.

Pigmentation disorders in three specimens of spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias Linnaeus, 1758, from the Gulf of Venice, northern Adriatic Sea

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study reports three cases of pigmentation disorders in Squalus acanthias from the Gulf of Venice. Two specimens exhibited spotless phenotypes, whereas one exhibited hypermelanism. Morphological assessments were conducted for two individuals, alongside genetic analysis of mitochondrial genes to determine phylogeographic relationships. Both

Contrasting life‐history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia Sea

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Comprehending a species' life‐history strategies is crucial to inform effective conservation efforts. Commercial fishing impacts icefish (family: Channichthyidae) in the Scotia Sea, but detailed information on species‐specific life histories remains largely unknown.

Individual variability in activity patterns in Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) revealed using pop‐up satellite tags

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding fish behaviour and activity patterns is essential for interpreting their ecology and the processes that shape population dynamics, yet such information remains limited for wild fishes because observing individuals in situ is challenging.

Bathyal demersal fishes of Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone region (49–54°N) of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, I: Results from trawl surveys

open access: yesDeep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2013
AbstractDemersal fishes were sampled by single-warp otter trawl (OTSB) at three sites on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR), to the northeast (NE), northwest (NW) and southeast (SE) of the Charlie–Gibbs Fracture Zone at approximately 2500m depth. The mean abundance was 4109fishkm−2 (SD 3714) and biomass 897.1kgkm−2 (SD 842.9) compared with 1996fishkm−2 (SD ...
