Fishery Management: Contrasts in the Mediterranean and the Atlantic [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 Two recent papers point to differing trends in the status of fish stocks in the Mediterranean and Atlantic fisheries of Europe. We discuss the possible reasons for these contrasting trends in relation to the history, ecosystems, fisheries and management in the two regions.

Diet and prey selection of pikeperch (Sander lucioperca Linnaeus, 1758) population in Lake Eğirdir (Turkey) [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2014 The diet and prey selection of pikeperch (Sander lucioperca L., 1758) were assessed by determining the frequency of occurrence, numeric and weight percentages, and the index of relative importance (IRI%) between January 2010 and December 2010 in

Anthropogenic enhancement of Egypt's Mediterranean fishery [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009 The highly productive coastal Mediterranean fishery off the Nile River delta collapsed after the completion of the Aswan High Dam in 1965. But the fishery has been recovering dramatically since the mid-1980s, coincident with large increases in fertilizer application and sewage discharge in Egypt. We use stable isotopes of nitrogen (

Historical discarding in Mediterranean fisheries: a fishers' perception [PDF]
ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2015 AbstractDiscarding of commercially important fish species in the bottom trawl fisheries in the northern Mediterranean Sea was investigated by soliciting the long-term recollections of fishers engaged or formerly engaged in such fisheries. The main aim of our investigation was to describe the prevalence of discarding and its evolution over the past 70 ...

Fisheries in the Mediterranean
Mediterranean Marine Science, 2000 The aim of this paper is to give a description of the Mediterranean fisheries, and its level of exploitation and to address the main questions dealing with its management. The Mediterranean is a semi-enclosed marine area with generally narrow continental shelves. The primary production of the Mediterranean is among the lowest in the world (26-50g C m-2

Grouping groupers in the Mediterranean: Ecological baselines revealed by ancient proteins
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Marine historical ecology provides a means to establish baselines to inform current fisheries management. Groupers (Epinephelidae) are key species for fisheries in the Mediterranean, which have been heavily overfished.
