Hidden Markov models reveal ontogenetic plasticity in green and loggerhead sea turtles

Scientific Reports
Conservation of long-lived marine species depends on understanding how individuals use habitats as they grow. Yet management often relies on size- or place-based stage classifications that overlook behavioral plasticity.

Satellite‐Based Fishing Fleet Tracking: A New Foundation for Fisheries Science and Management

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1134-1150, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Satellite‐based vessel‐tracking technologies have ushered in a new era for monitoring fishing activity at scale. By combining artificial intelligence (AI) methods with remotely‐sensed data, researchers can now detect, classify and analyse fishing behaviour across vast and previously unobservable ocean regions.

Analysis of Conditions and Implementation Pathways for Collaborative Governance in Aquaculture Based on Grounded Theory

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT During China's transition from scale‐oriented expansion to green development in aquaculture, tensions among environmental pressure, product safety and industrial returns have become increasingly pronounced. Traditional sector‐based management approaches are less able to respond to the governance needs arising from cross‐regional interactions ...

Inland Fishing Gear: Diversity, Classification, Management and Conservation Challenges

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This review highlights the diversity of fishing gear used in inland fisheries, particularly in small‐scale and artisanal fisheries worldwide. It focuses on gear regulation and management, emphasizing environmental impacts and associated conservation challenges, particularly the emerging problem of plastic pollution from fishing in aquatic ...

Evaluating Prey Availability for the Rice's Whale (Balaenoptera ricei) Based on Environmental DNA

Ecology and Evolution
Understanding the foraging ecology of endangered marine mammals provides important information for their conservation yet remains challenging due to the elusive, underwater nature of their feeding habits.

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1735-1759, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Enhancing Intra‐Specific Population Genetic Studies of Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in Irish Waters by Integrating Least Invasive Sampling and Environmental DNA (eDNA)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Three populations of bottlenose dolphins are found in Irish waters. This study used direct sampling methods to expand the sample size and confirm the distinctiveness of these populations, including a range expansion outside of the Shannon Estuary SAC.

Refining Accelerometer‐Based Animal Behaviour Classifications With Sequence‐Informed Post‐Processing

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Machine learning can be used to detect fine‐scale animal behaviours from accelerometer data but even the best model will make prediction errors. Logic‐based post‐processing techniques can be used to correct for those errors, with no additional data or computation.

Effects of Simulated Herbivory on the Thermal Resilience of Two Temperate Seagrass Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study investigates how reduced leaf size via simulated herbivory influences the thermal performance of temperate seagrasses. Simulated herbivory enhanced physiological performance and resilience under elevated temperatures in Posidonia australis, but not in Heterozostera tasmanica.
