Fishing degrades size structure of coral reef fish communities

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2016
Fishing pressure on coral reef ecosystems has been frequently linked to reductions of large fishes and reef fish biomass. Associated impacts on overall community structure are, however, less clear. In size-structured aquatic ecosystems, fishing impacts are commonly quantified using size spectra, which describe the distribution of individual body sizes ...

Cross-referencing unidentified fish sound data sets to unravel sound sources: a case study from the Temperate Northern Atlantic

open access: yesFrontiers in Remote Sensing
There is growing evidence that studying aquatic acoustic communities can provide ecologically relevant information. Understanding these communities may offer unique insights into species behaviour and ecology, while consolidating passive acoustic ...

Ocean currents affect spatial patterns of fish communities in the Yellow Sea–Bohai Sea ecotone

open access: yesEcological Processes
Background Understanding the drivers of spatial patterns in fish communities is important for protecting fishery ecosystems. However, the influence of ocean currents on the spatial patterns of fish communities remains poorly understood.

Study of ichtyodiversity from Gorgova-Uzlina lake-complex [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Annals of the Danube Delta Institute, 2006
The study of ichthyofauna from complex lakes Gorgova-Uzlina was undertaken in October 2004, using two complementary methods of sampling: electric fishing for shoreline and gillnet fishing for open water.

Fishing communities: the course of the fishing life

open access: yes, 2018
Social contexts inevitably influence entry into the occupation and how fishing lives are shaped by the unfolding of non-fishing identities. Temporal perspectives can help us understand what it means to be a fisher – including the importance of social contexts for entering the occupation and how non-fishing identities shape the unfolding of fishing ...

Collaborative fisheries research reveals reserve size and age determine efficacy across a network of marine protected areas

open access: yesConservation Letters
A variety of criteria may influence the efficacy of networks of marine protected areas (MPA) designed to enhance biodiversity conservation and provide fisheries benefits. Meta‐analyses have evaluated the influence of MPA attributes on abundance, biomass,

Electroreception and communication in fishes

open access: yes, 1996
This concise review focuses on recent advances in the function and mechanism of electroreceptive systems in lower aquatic vertebrates and elucidates the sophisticated principles of communication, prey detection and orientation in these organisms. An introduction into electroreceptors, electric organs and sensory functions is followed by a review of ...
