Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Literature linking phenology to climate has proliferated in recent decades and shows that climate change has reorganized seasonal opportunities worldwide. However, this literature often quantifies changes in point measures of timing (e.g., beginnings and peaks) without context about duration (e.g., rearing season length) or performance (e.g ...

Effects of Dissolved Oxygen and Hypoxia on Catch Rates of Nearshore Groundfishes in a Recreational Hook and Line Fishery

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global climate change is intensifying ocean deoxygenation, particularly in eastern boundary current systems such as the California Current. This study investigates the impact of hypoxic events on a nearshore, multispecies recreational groundfish fishery along the Oregon coast.

Stable Isotope–Enabled Particle Drift Models Predict Where High‐Resolution Isotope Analyses Can Discriminate Among Larval Trajectories in Atlantic Mackerel

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine fish commonly move across distinct habitats throughout their lifetimes, particularly during larval stages, when they are particularly difficult to track. Such transitions are necessary as environmental demands and predation pressures change dramatically with increases in body size.

Do the biological characteristics of trout (Salmo trutta) smolts influence their spring migration timing and maiden marine sojourn duration?

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anadromous salmonids migrate seaward to exploit feeding and growth opportunities in marine habitats, yet how smolt biological characteristics influence their marine migratory behavior remains poorly understood. This study used 9 years of trout (Salmo trutta) population monitoring data from 15,595 tagged age‐0+ parr, 1033 smolts detected ...

The state of knowledge on four families of Syngnathoidei fishes (Teleostei: Syngnathiformes): Aulostomidae, Centriscidae, Fistulariidae and Solenostomidae

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Nearshore Circulation

open access: yes, 1999
Nearshore circulation is the mean flow in the region from the shoreline to about a kilometer offshore. An understanding of nearshore circulation is important to understanding sediment transport, pollution dispersion, and the distribution of various marine invertebrates. This thesis addresses the following question.
