DNA extracted from boiled archival fish bones yields high‐quality whole‐genome sequencing data
Abstract Archival samples provide a unique source of organismal DNA, offering the potential to extend the temporal scale of genetic studies by decades to centuries. Fish hard structures, such as otoliths and scales, serve as records for fish collected during fisheries monitoring across a large spatiotemporal scale.

Otolith Deprivation Induces Optokinetic Compensation
According to the multisensory integration theory vestibular, optokinetic and proprioceptive inputs act in concert to maintain a stable retinal image of the visual world. Yet, it remains elusive to what extent the otolith organs contribute to this process and whether a specific loss of otolith input is compensated for.

Abstract Sex is an important driver of variation in behaviour, ecology and physiology. Sex identification in the Critically Endangered European eel (Anguilla anguilla) currently requires fish sacrifice, or the use of morphological differences such as body length, which can be inaccurate in certain habitats and at intermediate body lengths.

Abstract Quantifying the potential effects of climate change on juvenile salmonid body length at a large spatiotemporal scale is challenging given the multitude of biological processes and methodological constraints. In the present work, we analysed potential changes in size‐at‐age of juvenile Atlantic salmon cohorts over the past 50 years in the ...

Abstract During snorkelling near Frøya, central Norway, on 6 October 2025, a pair of adult lumpsuckers (Cyclopterus lumpus) was observed engaged in apparent prespawning behaviour in shallow kelp habitat. Such activity is surprising, as the species is mainly considered a spring spawner throughout the eastern Atlantic and is the focus of a targeted ...

Age, Growth, Life History, and Fisheries of the Sand Sole, Psettichthys melanostictus [PDF]
Sand sole, Psettichthys melanostictus, is a small but important part of the west coast groundfish fishery. It has never been assessed and there is a limited amount of biological data for the species.

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 ...

Abstract Atlantic herring Clupea harengus are total spawners that exhibit a large degree of reproductive plasticity and have substantial intra‐annual variation in their energetic condition. Recent research suggests that the species may be declining in energetic condition in the northwest Atlantic Ocean from the few historical records, but comparisons ...

Cod otoliths document accelerating climate impacts in the Baltic Sea
Anthropogenic deoxygenation of the Baltic Sea caused major declines in demersal and benthic habitat quality with consequent impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services. Using Baltic cod otolith chemical proxies of hypoxia, salinity, and fish metabolic

Abstract Cottus aleuticus (coastrange sculpin) is one of two North American facultatively amphidromous sculpins, but habitat use during its planktonic larval stage is poorly documented. We analysed strontium isotopes (88Sr and 87Sr/86Sr) in otoliths of 10 adult C. aleuticus from a small coastal California stream.
