Studying the contribution of different fishing gears to the Sardinella small-scale fishery in Senegalese waters

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2017
This study investigated variations of landings of two key species, Sardinella aurita and Sardinella maderensis, in Senegalese waters over a ten-year period (2004–2013). Using generalized additive models, it was found that fishing gear played a major role

Estimating European Pilchard (Sardina pilchardus) Total Length: New Equations for the Ichthyoarchaeological Record

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 325-340, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Throughout its area of distribution, in particular in the Iberian Peninsula, the European pilchard (Sardina pilchardus Walbaum 1792) has been an extensively exploited species since Prehistoric times. Our knowledge of the past fisheries of this clupeid nevertheless remains limited due to a scarcity of ichthyoarchaeological data, which reflects,

Discards of the purse seine fishery targeting small pelagic fish in the eastern Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2012
We analysed data collected on board commercial purse seine vessels in the Aegean and Ionian Seas (eastern Mediterranean Sea, Greece) in 13 seasonal sampling periods from 2003 to 2008 in order to describe the composition of the retained and discarded ...

Larval Transport Pathways Reveal Critical Habitat and Benefits of a Marine Protected Area to Fisheries

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 285-296, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Quantifying where marine organisms are born and subsequently disperse to is essential for fisheries management. Here, we conducted Lagrangian particle tracking of viviparous rockfish (Sebastes spp.) collected in the Southern California Bight over the course of 16 years.

Fisheries management of round sardinella Sardinella aurita along North Sinai coast

open access: yesJournal of Coastal Life Medicine, 2016
Round sardinella [Sardinella aurita (S. aurita), Valenciennes[1]] is a species very common in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea coast as well along the African Atlantic coasts from West Sahara to Angola. In addition, this species occurs in the Black Sea and in Western Atlantic from Cap Cod to Argentina, but it is rare. Sardine is the first in its important

Persisting Versus Relocating: Evidence That Marine Species Deploy Both Strategies in Compensation to Warming

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Marine species distributions reflect fundamental ecological interactions, and analyzing their patterns helps identify key drivers of change and enhances our understanding of shifting habitats and ecosystem responses. In response to ocean warming, marine species exhibit a range of accommodations, including tolerance to thermal changes and ...

Unexpected reproductive strategy of Sardinella aurita off the coast of Venezuela

open access: yesMarine Biology, 1997
Biological sampling of Spanish sardine (Sardinella aurita Valenciennes, 1847) off the coast of Venezuela from 1956 to 1989 was used to study the reproductive strategy and migration pattern of the population. Whereas in many pelagic fishes the energy re-allocation necessary for reproduction usually occurs optimally at the end of the upwelling season ...
