Distribution and ecology of the four Macrourus species by‐caught in the longline fishery at South Georgia, Southern Ocean

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although Macrourus species are the main by‐catch across Southern Ocean longline fisheries, including around South Georgia, the lack of species‐specific data has hindered effective management and ecological understanding. Aggregation of macrourids at genus level masks critical interspecific differences in life‐history strategies and ...

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Integrative revision of the Australian carrion‐breeding Calliphorinae (Diptera: Calliphoridae): Revision of the Calliphora stygia‐ and ochracea‐groups

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The Australian carrion‐breeding Calliphorinae are revised using an integrative approach combining morphology and mitogenomics. A new taxonomic key, morphological images and verified mitogenomic data, including COX1 barcodes, are provided to support the identification of species.

Herring Today, Gone Tomorrow? Sweden's Conflict Over the 2024 Bothnian Herring Quota

Sociologia Ruralis, Volume 66, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This article performs a narrative policy analysis of a Swedish conflict that erupted over the EU's commercial fishing quota for Bothnian herring in the north Baltic Sea. After scientists raised alarms and the European Commission recommended closing the fishery in 2024, diverse actors sought to influence decision‐making. Their accounts diverged,

Riverine nitrate and nitrification cannot be the only sources for nitrate assimilation in the Amazon River Plume margins

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract The Northern Amazon River Plume plays a crucial role in carbon sequestration and nitrogen cycling. This study quantified NO3− budgets along the plume during a period of high discharge, revealing NO3− uptake rates in excess of inputs from riverine sources and nitrification beyond 5°N.

Giant phytoplankton revealed by in situ imaging

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Deployment of an autonomous Zooglider in the western Mediterranean Sea revealed the presence of long phytoplankton chains attaining maximum lengths of 6.4–10.4 mm suspended in situ. Elongate chains included the diatoms Guinardia, Proboscia, two other diatom morphologies, and solitary filaments of the cyanobacterium Trichodesmium. Most elongate

Satellite‐Based Fishing Fleet Tracking: A New Foundation for Fisheries Science and Management

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1134-1150, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Satellite‐based vessel‐tracking technologies have ushered in a new era for monitoring fishing activity at scale. By combining artificial intelligence (AI) methods with remotely‐sensed data, researchers can now detect, classify and analyse fishing behaviour across vast and previously unobservable ocean regions.

Climate‐informed stock‐recruitment models identify potential environmental links for commercial fish stocks

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1193-1209, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Several studies have demonstrated non‐stationarity in marine fish maximum per capita recruitment rate, which may be linked to regional environmental drivers. Exploring relationships between environmental drivers and time‐varying recruitment rate will provide insight into recruitment processes, and suggest how fisheries managers may adapt ...

Upwelling and Mixing in a Supercritical Submarine Canyon

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Rhodamine dye was released on the seafloor near the head of a supercritically sloped submarine canyon in La Jolla, California. Fluorometers on a moored profiler and a ship‐towed CTD simultaneously tracked dispersion of the dye patch along and across isopycnals.
