Quantifying predation on benthos and its overlap with bottom fishing in the NW Atlantic
Abstract Continental shelves experience many human pressures with demersal fisheries central to disturbing the ocean floor. However, ecological processes such as predation rates of benthos and their relationship with bottom fishing are often unknown for large marine ecosystems.

We analyzed 190 specimens of the common European hermit crab species Pagurus bernhardus to look for the heterometry between the sexes regardless of the body size. We calculated three different indices and found all to be significantly different between males and females, indicating that males have bigger major and minor chelipeds than females, even if ...

Abstract The presence of wild fish in and around aquaculture habitats is often assumed a response to food resources within these habitats, either from input feed, the presence of cultured species, and/or the assemblage of biofouling that naturally colonises aquaculture structures.

The recent expansion of the aquaculture industry into the offshore marine environment is perceived to have a comparatively low environmental impact coupled with a high growth potential as a sustainable, large‐scale source of healthy protein. This study assessed changes in sediment characteristics and infauna assemblages following the development of the

Food habits and dietary variability of pelagic nekton off Oregon and Washington, 1979-1984 [PDF]
The food habits of 20 species of pelagic nekton were investigated from collections made with small-mesh purse seines from 1979-84 off Washington and Oregon. Four species (spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias; soupfin shark, Galeorhinus zyopterus; blue shark,
