ICES Report on Ocean Climate 2017 [PDF]
Long time-series of ocean properties are rare in the surface ocean and even more uncommon in the deep ocean. The North Atlantic region is unique in having a relatively large number of locations where oceanographic data have been collected repeatedly for ...

European sprat can be divided into distinct genetic groups in the NE Atlantic, that is, Norwegian fjords, Baltic Sea and an oceanic component. The species has been increasingly reported in Icelandic waters since 2017. To investigate the source of introduction, Icelandic sprat has been genotyped and analyzed in comparison with existing reference data ...

Harp Seals: Monitors of Change in Differing Ecosystems [PDF]
Harp seals are the most abundant marine mammal in the north Atlantic. As an ice obligatory predator, they reflect changes in their environment, particularly during a period of climatic change.

Primary Productivity and Habitat Depth Shape Developmental Mode in European Marine Gastropods
Thorson's rule suggests that marine gastropods in colder, high‐latitude regions tend to have non‐pelagic (non‐drifting) larval development. However, this study on 94 European gastropod species found that the rule disappears when examined at finer spatial scales, with temperature and phylogeny having little influence.

Assessment of Bottom Trawl Impacts on the Status of Seabed Communities in European Seas
ABSTRACT Bottom trawling affects seabed habitats, but its large‐scale impacts remain poorly quantified. Assessment of trawling impacts is essential to support monitoring and achieving sustainability objectives under international conventions, sustainable development goals, and seafood certification programs.

Community structure and range shifts in Arctic marine fish under climate change
Arctic marine ecosystems are rapidly transforming due to climate change. Warming temperatures and shrinking sea ice are enabling boreal fish to expand northward, possibly disturbing cold‐adapted Arctic species assemblages. Species range shifts have been documented in the Bering and Barents Seas, raising concerns about ecosystem restructuring.

Food intake of early juvenile western Baltic cod (Gadus morhua) during settlement transition
Abstract This study examines the gut contents of 203 early juvenile Atlantic cod [17–101 mm ± 18.48 mm standard deviation (SD)] from the Western Baltic Sea (ICES Subdivision 22) collected between 2020 and 2022. According to the observed prey (proportion of pelagic, intermediate and benthic items) in the cod guts, settlement transition from a pelagic to

Freshwater habitat characteristics are known to affect life‐history traits of migratory salmonids. Comparison of a riverine and lacustrine population anadromous Arctic char revealed significant tradeoffs in traits such as size, age, growth, maturity, migration, and mortality.

Arctic Geopolitics, Climate Change, and Resilient Fisheries Management [PDF]
This article examines the resilience of fisheries management institutions to the combined challenges inherent in geopolitical and climatic change. Increased emphasis on geopolitical considerations tends to make governments more, not less, inclined to ...
