Spawning areas of two shallow-water penaeid shrimps (Penaeus indicus and Metapenaeus monoceros) on the Sofala Bank, Mozambique

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2021
Abstract Penaeus indicus and Metapenaeus monoceros are commercially important penaeid shrimp species in the Western Indian Ocean, supporting fisheries on the Sofala Bank, Mozambique. Despite their importance, critical gaps exist in knowledge that is relevant for management purposes.

Distribution and vertical dynamics of planktonic communities at Sofala Bank, Mozambique

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2009
Abstract Coastal ecosystem processes are largely influenced by the interaction of different factors operating at various temporal and spatial scales, specifically those responsible for primary production patterns that modulate zooplankton and subsequent trophic levels.

The wind-driven response of the Zambezi River plume along the Sofala Bank: A numerical model study

Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2021
Abstract The Zambezi River plume constitutes a sizable feature in the horizontal distribution of both surface salinity and suspended sediments, and it spreads both downstream and upstream, influencing substantially the coastal ecosystems. Here we present the results of several numerical experiments conducted using the Regional Oceanic Modeling System,

Research assessment for the management of the industrial shallow-water multi-species shrimp fishery in Sofala Bank in Mozambique

Fisheries Research, 2006
The industrial shallow-water shrimp fishery at Sofala Bank whose annual average catch of 8600 t is valued at about US$ 80 million, is one of the main industries in Mozambique. The shrimps are also fished by an artisanal and semi-industrial fishery.

Biology, fisheries and distribution ofThryssa vitrirostris(Gilchrist & Thompson 1908) and other Engraulidae along the coast of the Sofala Bank, western Indian Ocean

African Journal of Marine Science, 2011
The Sofala Bank (16°–21° S) forms a major discontinuity in the gradients of engraulid distribution along the south-eastern African coast. Although the number of species declines southwards, the density and the catches of species associated with higher turbidity increases within the bank, particularly for Thryssa vitrirostris and a few other Thryssa and
