Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 2716-2734, December 2026.ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.Estuarine ecosystems are experiencing increasing land‐derived stress, bringing sediments, excess nutrients and contaminants. Once degraded, disturbed soft sediment ecosystems can take years to recover because long‐lived, functionally important species that aid recovery are lost.

The Use of Suspended Substrate to Facilitate Juvenile Mussel Recruitment in Restored Mussel Reefs
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.Mussel reefs have been depleted globally by overfishing and habitat degradation, but the advent of reef restoration has produced promising results in terms of adult mussel survival and biodiversity enhancement. However, an absence of juvenile recruitment into restored mussel reefs is regularly cited as jeopardising their persistence and expansion. This

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.Bioeroding sponges are recognised pests in shellfish fisheries, as their boring activity can reduce market value, contribute to oyster mortality and cause economic losses. In New Zealand, bioeroding sponges in the shell‐burrowing alpha form are frequently observed in shells of the flat oyster Ostrea chilensis, a historically and culturally important ...

Trends in Wadden Sea Fish Fauna, Part II: Dutch Demersal Fish Survey (DFS) [PDF]
, 2009 Shallow waters along the North Sea coast provide nursery areas for juveniles of several fish species, including commercially exploited species, and natural habitat for resident species and seasonal visitors. These areas have gone through major changes in

Current Status and Trajectory of Macroalgal Restoration in Aotearoa New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.Macroalgal forests dominate many rocky reef ecosystems across Aotearoa New Zealand, spanning a broad latitudinal gradient from subtropical‐to‐subantarctic waters. These habitats are characterised by high diversity and structural complexity, supporting productive coastal food webs that provide for numerous culturally and economically important species ...
