An ecosystem approach to kelp aquaculture in the Americas and Europe

Aquaculture Reports, 2019
Kelp farming is increasing along the temperate coastlines of the Americas and Europe. The economic, ecological, and social frameworks surrounding kelp farming in these new areas are in contrast with the conditions of progenitor kelp farming regions in ...

Tolerance of Egg and Yolk‐Sac Larval Yellowfin Sole (Limanda aspera) to Ocean Warming and Acidification

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Yellowfin sole (Limanda aspera) support the largest flatfish fishery in the world and contribute substantially to the eastern Bering Sea (EBS) flatfish catch. The EBS has been warming and acidifying, trends that are expected to intensify into the future.

A half century of monitoring reveals contrasting survival responses of Icelandic seabirds to climate and fisheries pressures

Ibis, EarlyView.
Seabirds serve as key indicators of marine environmental changes, with adult survival being a critical parameter for assessing population health. Iceland hosts some of the largest seabird populations in the North Atlantic, making it a valuable location for studying long‐term trends in seabird demographics.

Seafood Trade Routes for Lobster Obscure Teleconnected Vulnerabilities

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Reliance on international seafood markets leaves small-scale fishers and fishing economies vulnerable to distant disturbances that can negatively affect market prices and trigger social, economic, and environmental crises at local levels.

Effects of a Large Fishing Closure on Benthic Communitites in the Western Gulf of Maine: Recovery from the Effects of Gillnets and Otter Trawls [PDF]

, 2009
The recovery of benthic communities inside the western Gulf of Maine fishing closure area was evaluated by comparing invertebrate assemblages at sites inside and outside of the closure four to six years after the closure was established.

Northern cod (Gadus morhua) movement: insights from acoustic telemetry and genomics

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge of the timing and diversity of fish movements within a commercially exploited stock complex is required to ensure the sustainability of fisheries. Although migration can be driven by environmental factors, genomic mechanisms also play an important role in this complex life‐history trait. The northern cod (Gadus morhua) stock complex,

Early insights into the seasonal and spatial distribution of white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) along the Maine coastline

Frontiers in Marine Science
While significant progress has been made to characterize life history patterns, movement ecology, and regional estimates of abundance of white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) in the Western North Atlantic (WNA), patterns of spatial distribution remain ...

Recent changes in the diet and survival of Atlantic puffin chicks in the face of climate change and commercial fishing in midcoast Maine, USA

FACETS, 2016
We examined the diet of Atlantic puffin (Fratercula arctica) chicks at three midcoast Maine, USA, colonies during the years 2005–2014 and found that the puffins at each island have a distinct diet that has changed in recent years.

Sequence capture analysis determines spatial and temporal stock contributions to a mixed coastal anadromous fishery

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Employing a citizen science model of partnerships with recreational and commercial fishers, we collected 5298 fin‐clip samples of striped bass Morone saxatilis over a 2‐year period and a broad geographic area that encompassed a majority of the species migratory range.
