Oceanographic Condition of the Habitat and Distribution of Atlantic Chub Mackerel Scomber colias (Actinopteri: Scombridae) in Southwestern Atlantic

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Atlantic chub mackerel, Scomber colias Gmelin, 1789, is a pelagic species, found in schools throughout the Atlantic Ocean. The objective of the present study is to identify the relationship between oceanographic conditions and catches of the Atlantic chub mackerel fishing resource in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean (21°S–29°S).

Ecology of common bully (Gobiomorphus cotidianus) in the Tarawera and Rangitaiki rivers: isolation by inland distance or anthropogenic discharge? [PDF]

, 2009
Previous research has identified distinct genetic, life-history and reproductive differences between populations of common bully (Gobiomorphus cotidianus) upstream and downstream of a pulp and paper mill outfall on the Tarawera River in the Bay of Plenty,

Low genetic variation and strong genetic structure across a range of geographical scales in European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus L.)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Populations of anadromous European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus L.) are declining across its range with mitigation efforts for this ecologically important species hindered by a lack of demographic information. Here, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and microsatellite analyses were used to describe historical and recurrent demographics for the species ...

Habitat‐use strategies of young barramundi (Lates calcarifer) in a heavily modified landscape

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Barramundi (Lates calcarifer) is a facultatively catadromous species that migrates between saltwater and fresh water to complete its life cycle. Modified riverine landscapes may limit these migratory paths and alter the environmental cues that migratory fish rely on to trigger migration.

Mesopelagic fishes dominate otolith record of past two millennia in the Santa Barbara Basin. [PDF]

, 2019
The mesopelagic (200-1000 m) separates the productive upper ocean from the deep ocean, yet little is known of its long-term dynamics despite recent research that suggests fishes of this zone likely dominate global fish biomass and contribute to the ...

Potential metabolic records in isotope signals of chondrichthyan hard tissues

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances have demonstrated that the field metabolic rates (FMRs) of teleost fishes can be quantified from stable isotope compositions of carbonate‐biomineralized otoliths. Bones and teeth, in addition to bioapatite, contain carbonate and should retain a similar isotopic expression of metabolic rate.

Relationships Between Otolith Dimensions and Body Growth of North African Catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) from the Upper Basin of the Sakarya River, Turkey

Croatian Journal of Fisheries, 2019
The relationships between otolith size and body length of North African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822), collected from Sakaryabaşı (the main spring area of the Sakarya River) between July 2014 and November 2014, were examined.

Patterns of growth, mortality, and size of the tropical damselfish Acanthochromis polyacanthus across the continental shelf of the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]

, 2005
Age-based analyses were used to demonstrate consistent differences in growth between populations of Acanthochromis polyacanthus (Pomacentridae) collected at three distance strata across the continental shelf (inner, mid-, and outer shelf) of the central

Structure and composition of yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi) otoliths: implications for using aquaculture‐reared fish to reconstruct life histories

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding fish life history is essential for effective management of fisheries, but continuous tracking over lifetime temporal scales can be difficult. Fish otoliths contain a natural biogeochemical record of ambient environmental conditions and habitat use over such scales.

Spatial variation in otolith elemental chemistry of Stegastes arcifrons (Pomacentridae) reflects environmental patchiness at the Galápagos archipelago

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In marine ecosystems, environmental conditions shape important ecological processes. The equatorial Galápagos Marine Reserve (GMR) is known for great spatial variation in the upwelling of cold nutrient‐rich waters and the input of warm Panamanian waters. Differences in oceanography influence the structure of benthic communities.
