Comparison of species-specific qPCR and metabarcoding methods to detect small pelagic fish distribution from open ocean environmental DNA. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2022
Environmental DNA (eDNA) is increasingly used to noninvasively monitor aquatic animals in freshwater and coastal areas. However, the use of eDNA in the open ocean (hereafter referred to OceanDNA) is still limited because of the sparse distribution of ...

Climate change impacts on small pelagic fish distribution in Northwest Africa: trends, shifts, and risk for food security [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Climate change is recognised to lead to spatial shifts in the distribution of small pelagic fish, likely by altering their environmental optima. Fish supply along the Northwest African coast is significant at both socio-economic and cultural levels ...

Spatial structure and distribution of small pelagic fish in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2014
Understanding the ecological and anthropogenic drivers of population dynamics requires detailed studies on habitat selection and spatial distribution. Although small pelagic fish aggregate in large shoals and usually exhibit important spatial structure, their dynamics in time and space remain unpredictable and challenging.

Recent trends in abundance and fishing pressure of agency‐assessed small pelagic fish stocks

Fish and Fisheries, 2022
AbstractSmall pelagic fishes are used for human consumption, fishmeal and fish oil. They constitute 25% of global fish catch and have been of considerable conservation concern because of their intermediate position in aquatic food webs, often being a dominant dietary component of marine predators.

Concomitant changes in the environment and small pelagic fish community of the Gulf of Lions [PDF]

Progress in Oceanography, 2020
Abstract An important decrease in small pelagic fish condition and size has been observed in the most productive ecosystem of the Mediterranean Sea, the Gulf of Lions, since 2008, leading to an important fishery crisis. Previous studies suggested bottom-up control to be the most probable cause for these changes.

Assessing the influence of abiotic factors on small pelagic fish distribution across diverse water layers in the Northwest Pacific Ocean through acoustic methods

Ecological Indicators
The Northwest Pacific Ocean is one of the most productive fisheries in the world, with small pelagic fish constituting a substantial portion of its fishery resources.

Polychlorinated biphenyls in mussels, small pelagic fish, tuna, turtles, and dolphins from the Croatian Adriatic Sea waters: an overview of the last two decades of monitoring [PDF]

Arhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju
This review summarises our two decades of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) monitoring in different marine organisms along the eastern Adriatic Sea. The aim was to gain an insight into the trends of PCB distribution in order to evaluate the effectiveness of

Spring habitats of small pelagic fish communities in the Bay of Biscay [PDF]

Progress in Oceanography, 2018
Mapping habitats of species communities helps to inform on the ecological processes which drive their distribution. This information is critical to identify suitable areas for spatial management, aimed at preserving biodiversity, ecosystem functions or essential habitats.

Shelf oceanography and small pelagic fishes in the Java Sea [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
The optimization of small pelagic fisheries in the Java Sea could be enhanced by providing oceanographic information for analysis and determining potential fishing grounds.

SOS small pelagics: A safe operating space for small pelagic fish in the western Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

Science of The Total Environment, 2021
Sustainable fishing practices must ensure human wellbeing by safeguarding the integrity of marine life-supporting systems. Unfortunately, a significant challenge to fisheries management is that sustainable fishing levels can decline, often synergistically, by co-occurring with climate-driven environmental stressors.
