Post‐Release Survival of the Pelagic Stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea, Bonaparte, 1832) in French Longline Fisheries in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 719-732, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Bycatch remains a critical challenge in global fisheries, even when using selective gears such as longlines. In the French longline fishery targeting Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the Gulf of Lion, the common pelagic stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea) is the primary bycatch species.

The Effects of Microplastics and Additives on Ecosystem Function, Structure, and Signaling

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Microplastics disrupt ecosystem signaling through olfactory traps, altering predator–prey signaling and disrupting microbial communication and quorum sensing. ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) and their associated chemical additives are pervasive contaminants whose ecological impacts extend beyond organismal toxicity to fundamentally alter ecosystem ...

Prioritizing Shark, Ray, and Chimaera Conservation in Rapidly Changing Polar Waters

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Polar sharks, rays, and chimaeras face growing pressures from changing sea‐ice conditions, expanding fisheries, and limited protection. Our assessment highlights where critical habitats occur and how Important Shark and Ray Areas (ISRAs) can support more targeted conservation and fisheries management across the Arctic and Antarctic.

Along the Benthic to Holoplanktonic Continuum: Seafloor Affinity Increases Distance‐Decay Rates Among Abyssal Communities

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Marine species ranges are often large, contributing to relatively high community similarity over space, with decreased ranges expected among taxa that have lower dispersal and/or higher substrate requirements. We tested for a weakening of biogeographic structuring among dispersing abyssal taxa along the benthic to holoplanktonic habitat ...

Simulation modeling of the Adjustable Buoyancy Device for open ocean low trophic aquaculture, part I: Test of a submersible long tube unit

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Open‐water low‐trophic aquaculture (LTA) is a sustainable method for producing ocean‐based food and providing ecosystem services. An effective system design is critical for mitigating risks posed by deep ocean forces. Developing submersible cultivation technology requires quantitative risk analysis and modeling to address offshore challenges ...
