Estimating biomass, fishing mortality, and “total allowable discards” for surveyed non-target fish [PDF]
Abstract Demersal fisheries targeting a few high-value species often catch and discard other “non-target” species. It is difficult to quantify the impact of this incidental mortality when population biomass of a non-target species is unknown.

Spatially explicit information on coral fish species abundance and distribution is required for effective management. Nonextractive techniques, including echosounders and video census, can be particularly useful in marine reserves where the use of ...

Polyculture of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and lemeduk (Barbonymus schwanenfeldii) in floating net cages as a strategy for utilizing natural food [PDF]
Polyculture is a sustainable aquaculture system because it can reduce environmental pollution and increase feeding efficiency. The purpose of this study was to analyze the performance of growth, biomass and food competition for tilapia as the main ...

Large mesopelagic fishes biomass and trophic efficiency in the open ocean [PDF]
With a current estimate of ~1,000 million tons, mesopelagic fishes likely dominate the world total fishes biomass. However, recent acoustic observations show that mesopelagic fishes biomass could be significantly larger than the current estimate. Here we combine modelling and a sensitivity analysis of the acoustic observations from the Malaspina 2010 ...

Benthic grazing in a eutrophic river: cascading effects of zoobenthivorous fish mask direct effects of herbivorous fish [PDF]
Benthic grazing strongly controls periphyton biomass. The question therefore arises whether benthic grazing could be used as a tool to reduce excessive growth of periphyton in nutrient-enriched rivers.

Spatial Distribution and Abundance of Mesopelagic Fish Biomass in the Mediterranean Sea
Mesopelagic fish, being in the middle of the trophic web, are important key species for the marine environment; yet limited knowledge exists about their biology and abundance.
