Importance and spatial patterns of invisible fisheries in Amazonian clear-water rivers as revealed by fisher knowledge and collaboration. [PDF]
The graphical abstract highlights the research collaboration with fishers through interviews to record fishers' knowledge and participatory monitoring, to provide data on small‐scale fisheries in three clear water rivers (Trombetas, Tapajos and Tocantins).

Reconstructing historical catch trends of threatened sharks and rays based on fisher ecological knowledge. [PDF]
Abstract Small‐scale fisheries often lack historical shark and ray catch information, hampering their management. We reconstructed historical catch trends and current fishing pressure by combining local ecological knowledge, satellite‐based vessel counts, and a short‐term landing‐site survey.

Downscaling global reference points to assess the sustainability of local fisheries. [PDF]
Abstract Multispecies coral reef fisheries are typically managed by local communities who often lack research and monitoring capacity, which prevents estimation of well‐defined sustainable reference points to perform locally relevant fishery assessments.

Incorporating cyclone risk in the design of marine protected and conserved areas as an ecosystem-based adaptation approach. [PDF]
Abstract Marine protected and conserved areas (MPCAs) are promoted as an ecosystem‐based adaptation (EbA) approach to increase community and ecosystem resilience to climate change. However, traditional approaches to MPCA design typically do not consider climate risk or habitat condition under a climate threat.

The Nassau grouper Epinephelus striatus (Bloch, 1792): Monitoring of the spawning aggregation site 'El Blanquizal', southern Mexican Caribbean. [PDF]
Abstract ‘El Blanquizal’ was one of the most important Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus) spawning aggregation sites (SAS) in the Mexican Caribbean. However, the characteristics of the population that still uses this site for reproduction remain unknown.

Evidence for a fisher-designed solution to manta and devil ray bycatch in tuna fisheries. [PDF]
Abstract Bycatch in global tropical tuna purse seine fisheries represents a significant source of mortality for manta and devil rays (mobulids), which are globally threatened. Use of best handling and rapid release practices on purse seine vessels can substantially reduce mortality and improve vulnerability status for mobulids.
