Methane‐Derived Carbon Contributes to Fish Biomass in a Deep, Eutrophic Reservoir
Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Methanotrophic bacteria oxidise large amounts of biogenic methane produced in freshwater and bind the original methane carbon in their biomass. When these bacteria are consumed by other organisms, methane‐derived carbon enters food webs. Methane‐derived carbon can support a substantial part of invertebrate biomass in some freshwater ecosystems.

The Dynamic Nature of Nearshore Shark Nurseries in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Some habitats serve particularly important functions for wildlife. Identifying and appropriately managing these ‘essential habitats’ is critical, especially for wildlife that have faced severe population declines like sharks. Nursery habitats aid in the survival and development of juvenile sharks, which until recently were not formally ...

Bayesian Modelling of Catch in a Northwest Atlantic Fishery [PDF]
We model daily catches of fishing boats in the Grand Bank fishing grounds. We use data on catches per species for a number of vessels collected by the European Union in the context of the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization.

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT We compiled 46 years of cetacean strandings in the Algarve, Portugal, describing temporal–spatial patterns, size–sex structure, and causes of death (COD). We analyzed national records and years with a dedicated regional stranding network (SN) to assess annual/seasonal trends, spatial hotspots, and compare biometrics and COD.

Effects of climate on size structure and functioning of aquatic food webs [PDF]
, 2010 In aquatic food webs, the role of body size is notoriously strong. It is also well known that temperature has an effect on body size. For instance, Bergmann’s rule states that body size increases from warm to cold climates.

Qualitative contrast comparisons of differently coloured gillnets.
, 1979 A regularly returning problem for Norwegian gill net manufacturers has been that fishermen often change their fancy for gill net colours, and also that fishermen from different districts have separate colour preferences. This necessitates production and. stocking of a great variety of differently coloured nets, and also creates peak demands for special

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT The franciscana dolphin (Pontoporia blainvillei) is a threatened cetacean whose northernmost population (Franciscana Management Area Ia)—part of the recently described subspecies P. b. pukusi—faces significant anthropogenic pressures, including impacts from a major mining dam collapse.
