Use of the intertidal zone by fish in Nova Scotia
Environmental Biology of Fishes, 1991In 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 ...

Ecophysiology of intertidal fish
1993The 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 ...

Time and tide wait for no fish: intertidal fishes out of water
Environmental Biology of Fishes, 1995Hypoxic conditions are rare in the open ocean, but may occur during low tides in tidepools. Intertidal fishes respond to low tides in a variety of ways, including avoiding the intertidal zone during low tides, respiring in the well-oxygenated layer at the surface of the water, or simply tolerating hypoxic water. A number of intertidal fish species have

Reproduction and recruitment of sympatric fish species on an intertidal rocky shore
Journal of Fish Biology, 2017The reproductive cycle of seven common species (Gobius paganellus, Gobius bucchichi, Gobius cobitis, Parablennius sanguinolentus, Salaria pavo, Tripterygion tartessicum and Symphodus roissali) on rocky shores in the Gulf of Cadiz and their relationship with the sea surface temperature (SST) is analysed.

Patterns of Movement in Intertidal Fishes
1988The intertidal zone frequently represents a rich source of food and shelter and as such is inhabited by a wide variety of animals. Many of them are able to withstand the changing environmental conditions and live there continuously. Others, lacking this ability, avoid the zone at low tide and occupy the area only when it is immersed.

Theme and variations: amphibious air‐breathing intertidal fishes
Journal of Fish Biology, 2013Over 70 species of intertidal fishes from 12 families breathe air while emerging from water. Amphibious intertidal fishes generally have no specialized air‐breathing organ but rely on vascularized mucosae and cutaneous surfaces in air to exchange both oxygen and carbon dioxide. They differ from air‐breathing freshwater fishes in morphology, physiology,

The Impact of Artisanal Fishery on a Tropical Intertidal Benthic Fish Community
Environmental Biology of Fishes, 2001We 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).

Temperature Sensitivity of Two Species of Intertidal Fishes
Copeia, 1970Clinocottus analis and Hypsoblennius gilberti have similar latitudinal distributions in the eastern Pacific Ocean and occur together in the intertidal environment from central California to Baja California. Although they occupy similar habitats in the temperate zone, these two species differ in origin. C.
