BioTIME: A database of biodiversity time series for the Anthropocene

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 27, Issue 7, Page 760-786, July 2018., 2018
Abstract Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblages using a broad range of metrics.

Spatial Distribution of Greenland Shark Somniosus microcephalus (Bloch & Schneider, 1801) Life Stages Across the Northern North Atlantic

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
This study analyzes the body length and sex composition of Greenland sharks across the northern North Atlantic and demonstrates distinct demographic distribution patterns. Areas with high occurrence of adult females, juveniles, or neonates are identified allowing for pinpointing locations of high biological importance for the species listed as ...

An ecologically sound and participatory monitoring network for pan‐Arctic seabirds

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 6, December 2024.
Abstract In a warming Arctic, circumpolar long‐term monitoring programs are key to advancing ecological knowledge and informing environmental policies. Calls for better involvement of Arctic peoples in all stages of the monitoring process are widespread, although such transformation of Arctic science is still in its infancy.

Genetic Stock Identification Reveals Mismatches Between Management Areas and Population Genetic Structure in a Migratory Pelagic Fish

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2024.
ABSTRACT Sustainable fisheries management is important for the continued harvest of the world's marine resources, especially as they are increasingly challenged by a range of climatic and anthropogenic factors. One of the pillars of sustainable fisheries management is the accurate identification of the biological units, i.e., populations.

Key Uncertainties and Modeling Needs for Managing Living Marine Resources in the Future Arctic Ocean

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 12, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Emerging fishing activity due to melting ice and poleward species distribution shifts in the rapidly‐warming Arctic Ocean challenges transboundary management and requires proactive governance. A 2021 moratorium on commercial fishing in the Arctic high seas provides a 16‐year runway for improved scientific understanding.

Population ecology and juvenile density hotspots of thornback ray (Raja clavata) around the Shetland Islands, Scotland

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 576-589, March 2024.
Abstract Elasmobranchs are facing global decline, and so there is a pressing need for research into their populations to inform effective conservation and management strategies. Little information exists on the population ecology of skate species around the British Isles, presenting an important knowledge gap that this study aimed to reduce.

Including older fish in fisheries management: A new age‐based indicator and reference point for exploited fish stocks

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 25, Issue 1, Page 18-37, January 2024.
Abstract Larger and older fish contribute disproportionately to spawning and play an important role in the replenishment of exploited stocks. Fishing often removes specific size‐ and age‐classes, with direct impacts on stock productivity and population resilience.
