Revealing Coastal Upwelling Impact on the Muscle Growth of an Intertidal Fish

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022
Upwelling oceanographic phenomenon is associated with increased food availability, low seawater temperature and pH. These conditions could significantly affect food quality and, in consequence, the growth of marine species. One of the most important organismal traits is somatic growth, which is highly related to skeletal muscle.

Aerial Vision: Unique Adaptation in an Intertidal Fish

Science, 1970
Mnierpes macrocephalus , a clinid fish of rocky shores of the eastern tropical Pacific, makes frequent terrestrial sojourns. The normal fish eye is myopic in air because of curvature of the cornea. This is overcome in Mnierpes by the presence of two flattened corneal surfaces.

Site fidelity of intertidal fish to rockpools

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, 2017
Gobius paganellus, Lipophrys pholis and Coryphoblennius galerita are wide‐spread intertidal fish that spend their earlier life stages in rock pools, and yet very little is known about their site fidelity behaviour. For these species, fidelity to rockpools may result in increased fitness costs in a predicted scenario of warmer sea water, due to the low ...

Ecophysiology of intertidal fish

1993
The intertidal environment may be characterized by extreme changes in water temperature, pH, salinity, oxygen and carbon dioxide tensions, and these may occur on a daily basis or be influenced by season or by the prevailing weather conditions. Temperature, osmoregulatory and respiratory problems may also be exacerbated by aerial exposure in some ...

Use of the intertidal zone by fish in Nova Scotia

Environmental Biology of Fishes, 1991
In Nova Scotia the annual harvest of the intertidal seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum exceeds 20 000 tons. This study investigated the possible impact of removal of the seaweed on intertidal abundance of fishes and their gut contents. At sites near Lower Argyle, Nova Scotia, absolute abundance of fish in small areas with Ascophyllum removed and intact was ...

The Impact of Artisanal Fishery on a Tropical Intertidal Benthic Fish Community

Environmental Biology of Fishes, 2001
We examined the benthic fishes and artisanal fishery in the intertidal flats of Inhaca Island, Mozambique. Results of a questionnaire indicated that catches had decreased, and that piscivorous fish have disappeared. Results of a catch sampling study indicated that current catch rates are low, <2 kg person(-1) fishing trip(-1).
