Preliminary results from a bottom trawl survey of Lake Rudolf with additional notes on trials with a midwater frame trawl [PDF]
This paper includes a short report on preliminary midwater hauls with a frame trawl. The object is (a) to study the relationship between the vertical distribution of pelagic fish and the scattering layer, and (b) to find out if certain species, which at

Deep-sea fisheries depend on various fishing methods, including trawling, purse seining, and longline fishing, among others. Studying the dynamic characteristics of trawling operations is essential for the trawl mechanism.

VERDA: A Multisampler Tool for Mesopelagic Nets
Different types and systems to discriminate plankton samples at different strata in the water column have been developed in recent decades. For sampling at sufficient depth, opening and closing zooplankton multinets are ideal because there is no ...

Contrasting life‐history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia Sea
Abstract Comprehending a species' life‐history strategies is crucial to inform effective conservation efforts. Commercial fishing impacts icefish (family: Channichthyidae) in the Scotia Sea, but detailed information on species‐specific life histories remains largely unknown.

Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Worldwide Invasions of Centrarchidae: The Dark Side of the Sunfish Family
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now

Exploration of the “larval pool”: development and ground-truthing of a larval transport model off leeward Hawai‘i [PDF]
Most adult reef fish show site fidelity thus dispersal is limited to the mobile larval stage of the fish, and effective management of such species requires an understanding of the patterns of larval dispersal.

ABSTRACT The consequences of mis‐managing vulnerable stocks (i.e., those with low productivity and high susceptibility to depletion) are high and potentially permanent. To support sustainable fisheries management, stock assessments can be improved by increasing the quantity and quality of fishery‐independent survey (i.e., survey) data.
