Comparing non‐staining methods with Mutvei's solution to visualize growth increments in short‐lived intertidal marine gastropod shells

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...

Southern California marine sport fishing from privately-owned boats: catch and effort for July-September 1981 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
The catch landed and effort expended by private-boat sport fishermen were studied in southern California between July and September 1981, in order to determine the impact of one segment of the sport fishery on local marine resources.

Seasonal variations in planktonic food web structure affect stability by shifting the distribution of energy fluxes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seasonality in temperate ecosystems shapes species phenology, influencing interactions and food web structure. Variations in species richness and biomass affect trophic interaction strength, a crucial factor for community stability, which can be assessed through energy fluxes – an essential indicator of ecosystem function.

The role of histones in the immune responses of aquatic invertebrates

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2013
Histones are primary components of eukaryotic chromatin and highly abundant in all animal cells. In addition to their important role in chromatin structure and transcriptional regulation, histones contribute to innate immune responses. In several aquatic

The importance of wild meat and freshwater fish for children's nutritional intake in the Congo Basin

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat and freshwater fish are widely consumed in the Congo Basin, but in some areas, they are at risk of disappearing due to unsustainable hunting and fishing and changes in their habitat. Wild meat is also at risk of being eliminated from local diets due to potential policy changes such as wild meat bans.

More than proteins for empty stomachs: Wild meat in the BaTonga food system

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Our paper highlights the limitations of the framework used by many conservation‐focused programmes that incorporate food security objectives. This framework encourages the substitution of wild proteins with domestic proteins by promoting animal farming in communities located near conservation areas.

Delousing performance of ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta) and lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus): seasonal consistency and the challenge of cryptic lice for lumpfish

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Ballan wrasse and lumpfish effectively reduce sea lice on salmon year round, although lumpfish struggle with cryptic lice, highlighting new considerations for lice management. Abstract BACKGROUND Cleaner fish play a crucial role in controlling caligid sea lice in Atlantic salmon aquaculture across the North Atlantic.
