Are Sponges Good Natural Sentinels for Monitoring Fish Diversity in Antarctic Coastal Waters?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study demonstrates that eDNA metabarcoding using both water and sponge samples is an effective tool for monitoring fish biodiversity along the Western Antarctic Peninsula. The results revealed 14 endemic Antarctic fish species and one marine mammal, with water samples often offering a more comprehensive view than sponges.

Model tests of high speed midwater trawls with large meshes.

open access: yesNIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1990
Midwater trawling technology has become important since the early 1980's for harvesting underutilized fast swimming fish. Developmental work has involved fishing trials with full scale midwater trawls by the Japan Marine Resources Development Center (JAMARC).

Characteristics of Dynamic Control of Midwater Trawl System in Field Experiments.

open access: yesNIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1994
In order to investigate the characteristics of dynamic control of a midwater trawl, a field experiment was conducted by FRV “SINYO-Maru” of Tokyo University of Fisheries. The parameters of the midwater trawl being towed were measured with a SCANMAR system and a self-recording underwater load-depth meter.

Early life-history studies of nearshore rockfishes and lingcod off Central California, 1987-92 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
This study focused on the physical and biological processes that influence the distribution, abundance, growth, and survival of young-of-the-year (YOY) rockfishes and lingcod along the central California coast.

Acoustic Assessment of the Micronekton Community on the Chatham Rise, New Zealand, Using a Semi-Automated Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Micronekton are a key component of the pelagic food web of the Chatham Rise east of New Zealand. The Chatham Rise is an important fishing area for hoki (Macruronus novaezelandiae), New Zealand’s largest finfish fishery, and a predator on mesopelagic fish.

Bycatch and Monitoring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Herring play a vital role in the North Atlantic ecosystem—serving as food for tuna, cod, striped bass, seabirds, dolphins and whales. But herring and their predators are threatened by industrial-scale fishing by midwater trawlers.

Trophic Relationships of Aquatic Species Offer Valuable Insights Into Shallow Lake Ecosystem Recovery

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
Trophic relationships indicated a hysteretic food web response to restoration. Plankton was the primary food source for fish and invertebrates in BYD. Aquatic plants primarily contributed to the humus formation in BYD. ABSTRACT Shallow freshwater lakes are vital for ecological and climate regulation, but many are degrading. Although restoration efforts

Characterizing pelagic pair trawl partnerships using coordination metrics and behavior classification in the Black Sea

open access: yesEcological Informatics
Pelagic pair trawling involves two vessels towing a single midwater net in coordinated motion to target schooling pelagic species. Monitoring and distinguishing pair-trawl operations remain challenging for fisheries management, particularly when analyses

Krill of the Ross Sea: distribution, abundance and demography of Euphausia superba and Euphausia crystallorophias during the Italian Antarctic Expedition (January-February 2000)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2002
Net samples data from the 15th Italian Antarctic Oceanographic Cruise (Jan-Feb 2000) were analysed to obtain a general picture of the summer distribution pattern, abundance and demography of krill in the western Ross Sea (Antarctica).

Survey of fishes and water properties of south San Francisco Bay, California, 1973-82 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The objective of this study was to describe the physical and ichthyological changes occurring seasonally and annually in the south San Francisco Bay, based on the results of 2,561 otter trawl and water samples obtained between February 1973 and June ...
