Using Photographs in Fishers’ Ecological Knowledge Research: A Review and Field Study on Small‐Scale Fishers’ Knowledge of Coastal Habitats in the Central Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fishers interact daily with coastal environments, which generate a deep understanding of habitat characteristics, species associations and ecological change. Fishers’ ecological knowledge (FEK) is therefore a critical source of insight for marine science, offering observations that uniquely complement scientific data and, when incorporated ...

Biology and ecological functional of Genus Crassostrea (Bivalvia: Ostreidae): a review

open access: yesDepik, 2022
The genus Crassostrea has an important role for community life in coastal and mangrove ecosystems. In this article, we try to review in detail the ecology, biology, and ecological functions of Crassostrea spp. Furthermore, we also review about 25 species of Crasostrea that exist in the world and also have a high level of adaptation. Based on ecological

Sea otter interactions with mariculture oyster farms

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 6, August 2025.
Despite concerns about sea otter (Enhydra lutris) interactions with oyster farms in Alaska, our study found no significant differences in general activity or prey selection between farm and non‐farm areas. However, sea otter prey intake rates varied spatially, with clams, mussels, and crabs dominating their diet.

Warmer Is Deadlier: A Meta‐Analysis Reveals Increasing Temperatures Accentuate Disease Effects on Fisheries Hosts

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2025.
We conducted a meta‐analysis using 266 effect sizes from 52 empirical papers on harvested aquatic species and determined the relationship between parasite‐induced host mortality and temperature and how this relationship was altered by host, parasite, and study design traits.

Synthesis of Population Trends Reveals Seascape‐Wide Reorganisation of Biodiversity From Microalgae to Birds

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
We present a systematic and quantitative analysis of population trends to capture the seascape‐wide reorganisation of biodiversity from microalgae to birds. First, we categorised population trends and found over one third of populations in the Wadden Sea to change, that is, increase or decrease.
