The supplemental effect of Antarctic krill meal (KM) into a low fish meal (FM) diet was evaluated for olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). A 56% FM‐based diet was regarded as a high FM inclusion diet (HFM), and a low‐FM diet (LFM) was prepared by ...

Dissolved and Particulate Methylated Mercury in a Highly Productive Area of the Southern Ocean
Abstract Methylated mercury (MeHg), including dimethylmercury and monomethylmercury (MMHg), is a pollutant of concern because it biomagnifies in marine biota. The formation of MeHg in the oceans, specifically at highly productive regions and at high oxygen levels, remains elusive.

ABSTRACT North Pacific humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) have recovered rapidly following their depletion by commercial whaling. Diet studies are necessary to assess food web implications of their recovery. This study investigates the diet composition of humpback whales foraging in the northern Strait of Georgia, British Columbia, Canada, an ...

Due to stagnant production and high cost of fish meal (FM), feed nutritionists are seeking reliable and affordable alternatives. However, low‐FM diets often result in poor palatability, reduced feed consumption (FC), and impaired growth. This study investigates the effects of replacing FM with plant proteins in diets with or without jack mackerel meal (

Quantifying the Escape Mortality of Trawl Caught Antarctic Krill (Euphausia superba). [PDF]
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is an abundant fishery resource, the harvest levels of which are expected to increase. However, many of the length classes of krill can escape through commonly used commercial trawl mesh sizes. A vital component of the

The Biodiversity of Peter I Island—The Most Remote Island in the World
Peter I Island is one of the most isolated and least visited islands on earth; lying within the Antarctic Polar Front but over 420 km from continental Antarctica. Here we assess the biodiversity of the island from both previous records and our own BioBlitz in January 2022.

Antarctic krill ( Euphausia superba Dana, 1850) exemplifies the key role of marine crustaceans in fisheries, foodwebs, and biogeochemical cycles. Ecological understanding and policy decisions require information on population trends.

Spatial-temporal patterns of euphausiids ecology in the Okhotsk Sea
The most common regularities in spatial distribution of mass Euphausia species and their size classes and ontogenetic stages are determined for the Okhotsk Sea using the data averaging by biostatistical areas and applying the average results to the ...

Cohort tracking using size‐frequency population survey data to estimate individual growth
Abstract The relationship between a species' growth rate and its size—its growth function—represents essential biological information for supporting sustainable fisheries and wildlife management. Yet, growth functions are known for only a fraction of species. Progress is especially limited in marine invertebrates, including shellfish, due to challenges
