Voting Systems Influence Conservation Outcomes for International Fisheries
Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT Fishery stocks that range partly or entirely beyond national jurisdictions pose substantial coordination challenges. Regional Fishery Management Organizations (RFMOs) were created to coordinate the sustainable management of these resources. Although RFMOs aim to make decisions by consensus, formal votes can be held when that proves impossible.

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract The Arctic is warming nearly four times faster than the global average, but the rate of change is not uniform across the region. Wide‐ranging Arctic species are exposed to variable environmental conditions across their range, but it remains unclear how different climate change regimes are affecting populations within the same species that have

Fishers' Local Ecological Knowledge Reveals Complex Food Web Dynamics With Rapidly Warming Waters
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 1122-1133, November 2025.ABSTRACT Local ecological knowledge (LEK) can provide insight into ecosystem change, particularly in dynamic ecological conditions, such as those driven by climate change. In New England lobster fisheries, warming waters have the potential to disrupt food webs, as range‐shifting species introduce novel ecological interactions.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract The southeast Greenland region features a confluence of Arctic‐ and Atlantic origin waters along the continental shelf‐break, forming the East Greenland Polar Front (EGPF). Here we examine the role of the EGPF in mediating climate‐ocean‐ecosystem variability.

Marine Conservation Leadership: Does Australia Walk the Talk?
Conservation Letters, Volume 18, Issue 5, September/October 2025.ABSTRACT The conservation of Australia's extraordinary marine biodiversity has been prominently championed over the past three decades by successive Federal and State Governments, who have consistently portrayed the nation as a global leader in marine protection. Here, we question whether this reputation is justified.

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 717-732, September 2025.ABSTRACT Statistical distributions of spatial abundance data of animal populations can be informative about underlying processes and mechanisms that govern the spatial distributions. Here, we examine a large data set from annual 0‐group fish surveys in the Barents Sea (1980–2017) collected with standardised trawl sampling from a regular grid with 30–35

Increase in Harp Seal Ecosystem Role After the Cod Collapse in Newfoundland & Labrador
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 878-894, September 2025.ABSTRACT Pinniped populations have been increasing worldwide, posing challenges for fisheries management, including damage to fishing gear and competition for resources. In the Northwest Atlantic, harp seal numbers have increased from 1.8 million in 1970 to 6.5 million in 1990, stabilising at 4.4 million in 2024—one of the largest pinniped populations ...

Towards Implementing Multispecies Harvest Strategies That Are Robust to Interacting Populations
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 923-941, September 2025.To advance the implementation of fisheries management that is robust to interacting populations (RIP), ecosystem management approaches can be structured using four main categories: (A) whole‐of‐ecosystem; (B) focus or key species; (C) species of conservation concern; and (D) pest or climate‐immigrant species.

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 8, Page 1879-1888, August 2025.Abstract Kelp forests are found on rocky shores from polar to temperate coasts, where they provide important ecosystem services to humans. For coastal communities, kelp forests are particularly important as spawning and nursery grounds for small‐scale fisheries.

, 2001 In early October 2000 an exploratory fishing for oceanic redfish have been conducted by one Spanish pelagic trawler in the NAFO Regulatory Area of Div. 1F. One scientific observer was on board this vessel during the whole fishing period. The seasonal and geographic distribution pattern of the fishing effort in the Spanish oceanic redfish fishery is ...
