Integrated systematic planning and adaptive stakeholder process support a 10‐fold increase in South Africa's Marine Protected Area estate

Conservation Letters, Volume 16, Issue 4, July/August 2023., 2023
Abstract South Africa sought to implement an ecologically representative Marine Protected Area (MPA) network to achieve biodiversity and fisheries management goals with least impact on offshore stakeholders. The result was the declaration of a spatially efficient network representing 131 of 150 marine ecosystem types (87%) in 5.4% of ocean area.

Spatial and biomass structure of shallow‐water cape hake (Merluccius capensis) in the light of episodic environmental shifts

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 524-538, September 2022., 2022
Abstract The spatial distribution patterns of Merluccius capensis in the Namibian waters were investigated and related to average environmental conditions during 1996–2020. Fisheries‐independent data and simultaneously collected water temperature and dissolved oxygen data were used from austral summer surveys.

Shifts in the seasonal trophic ecology of larvae and juveniles of European hake (Merluccius merluccius): From the Galician upwelling system (NW Spain)

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 539-553, September 2022., 2022
Abstract The trophic ecology of European hake (Merluccius merluccius) larvae and early‐juveniles from the Iberian shelf off Galicia (NW Spain) are assessed by means of stable isotopes (SIA) and nutritional condition in conjunction with hydrobiological variations observed during the winter and summer season of 2012.

Rebuilding the Namibian hake fishery: a case for collaboration between scientists and fishermen

Ecology and Society, 2014
One of the most important fisheries in the northern Benguela is the Namibian hake fishery, which targets both Merluccius capensis and Merluccius paradoxus.

A Short History of the Namibian Hake Fishery - a Social-Ecological Analysis

Ecology and Society, 2013
As a legacy of Namibia's colonial past, the country inherited severely depleted fish resources at the time of independence. Today, Namibia's fisheries are almost exclusively industrial.

Management of transboundary and straddling fish stocks in the Northeast Atlantic in view of climate‐induced shifts in spatial distribution

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 21, Issue 5, Page 1008-1026, September 2020., 2020
Abstract The introduction of 200 n.m. exclusive economic zones (EEZs) in the late 1970s required increased collaboration among neighbouring coastal states to manage transboundary and straddling fish stocks. The established agreements ranged from bilateral to multilateral, including high‐seas components, as appropriate.

Genetic structure of Sufflogobius bibarbatus in the Benguela upwelling ecosystem using microsatellite markers

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 168-182, April 2020., 2020
Abstract The bearded goby Sufflogobius bibarbatus is an abundant endemic small fish species on the continental shelf of the northern Benguela. The goby habitat is characterised by generally low bottom oxygen concentrations that vary spatially and seasonally. In the present study of population structure, 13 samples of S.
