Measurements of the branchial sieve of sardine (Sardinops sagax ocellatus) from the west and south coasts of southern Africa [PDF]
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (p. 40-46).Branchial sieves of southern African sardine (Sardinops sagax ocellatus) were collected from three geographical regions along the southern African coast: Namibia, the south coast and the ...

Pacific sardine (Sardinops sagax) in the northwest Pacific Ocean (NPO) not only preserve the equilibrium of the NPO food chain, but also serve as a source of nutrition for humans. In order to evaluate the levels of various elements in S.

The yield of the Pacific sardine Sardinops sagax caeruleus from Bahía Magdalena, B.C.S., was analyzed using a stockrecruitment model. The model was stochastic, and it used the hypotheses of process error (H1) in the model, and observation error (H2) in

Pacific Sardine (Sardinops sagax) in the Northeast Pacific Ocean are aged for stock assessments assuming the formation of two otolith growth bands (one opaque and one translucent) a year, but the periodicity of band formation has not been fully validated.

Abstract As quantitative diet estimates from biochemical markers grow in popularity, the necessity for robust species‐ and tissue‐specific correction factors, including trophic discrimination factors (TDFs) for stable isotopes and calibration coefficients (CCs) for fatty acids, becomes increasingly urgent.

Meristic and morphometric variation among sardine Sardinops sagax around the coast of southern Africa [PDF]
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (p. 72-81).Meristic counts and morphometric measurements were made on previously frozen sardine Sardinops sagax to determine whether there is a difference in the shape of sardine from different areas ...

Teleost fish possess calcium carbonate otoliths located in separate chambers (utriculus, sacculus, and lagena) of their membranous labyrinth. This study analyzed the surface topography of the sagittal otolith of the Pacific sardine (Sardinops sagax) and ...

Advancing Ecological Understanding and Sustainable Management of Small Pelagic Fish
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish (SPF) are critical to the trophodynamic structure and function of marine systems and support some of the most valuable and socially important fisheries worldwide. Their “boom and bust” population dynamics, shifts in distribution, and importance as forage resources for other fish stocks place unique challenges to assessing ...

Temporal and spatial variability in 'Tetracotyle' type and metacercariae infection in the South African sardine, Sardinops sagax [PDF]
Spatial and temporal variation of "tetracotyle" type metacercariae infection in the eyes of the South African sardine, Sardinops sagax, was examined to elucidate the potential use of this parasite as a biological tag, and to test the hypothesis that the ...

ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish and other forage species are patchily distributed over space and time, resulting in variable foraging conditions experienced by their predators. The high‐resolution data necessary to understand the spatiotemporal structure of forage communities are challenging to collect with expensive fishery‐independent surveys, meaning ...
