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.

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.
