A Two Discrete Stock Hypothesis for South African Sardine Resource [PDF]
The two discrete stock hypothesis for South African sardine has been extended. An improved fit to the data has been obtained. These results show that the hypothesis of two discrete stocks of sardine in South African waters can fit the observed data well.

Selection of acceptable levels of risk for South African small pelagics: the probability of dropping below pre-defined risk thresholds [PDF]
This document considers alternative methods to define acceptable risk levels – or acceptable probabilities of dropping below limit-like reference or “risk” thresholds - for use in tuning Candidate Management Procedures for the South African sardine and ...

We use for the first time whole‐genome sequencing to explore current and historical patterns of genetic diversity in European hake in the Northeastern Atlantic, focusing on the recently expanded distribution range in the North Sea. Genomic data revealed a complex scenario with three populations: North Sea, Celtic Sea and Portugal.

ABSTRACT Facilitative interspecific interactions (FIIs) confer benefits to at least one participant without detriment to others. Although often less emphasised than antagonistic interactions in ecological studies, this review highlights the significant ecological role of FIIs across biological scales – from individual behaviours to population ...

Using a standardized eDNA metabarcoding workflow across 12 countries, ANEMONE Global reveals large‐scale patterns in coastal fish biodiversity shaped by habitat complexity, ocean basin, and diel variation. The study demonstrates the feasibility of globally coordinated, high‐resolution marine biodiversity monitoring using eDNA.

Assessment of the South African sardine resource using data from 1984-2011: initial results for a two stock hypothesis [PDF]
As part of the process of updating the assessment of the South African sardine resource, a sardine two mixing-stock hypothesis is to be tested. This hypothesis postulates a “west” stock distributed west of Cape Agulhas and a “south” stock distributed ...

This study compared the ability of active and passive eDNA filtration methods to capture environmental DNA in a marine environment with highly variable eDNA signals. Active sampling detected a greater proportion of fish biodiversity, whereas passive sampling detected a larger proportion of metazoa, with a trend of significant accumulation of numbers of

Foraging ecology of the African Penguin Spheniscus demersus in relation to ocean physical processes. [PDF]
Includes abstract.This research demonstrated the dual utility of bio-loggers as a method for generating accurate, high-resolution oceanographic data. These data can be used in future studies, generating a cross disciplinary platform for research.

This study novel analytical data of 24 commonly consumed marine fish species from East Africa to assess their nutrient content and contribution to Codex nutrient reference values. Results showed that small fish species, typically eaten whole, are richer in key micronutrients compared to larger, filleted species. These findings highlight the nutritional

Assessing the South African sardine resource: two stocks rather than one? [PDF]
Sardine Sardinops sagax distributed off the west and south coasts of South Africa have traditionally been assumed to comprise a single well-mixed stock for assessment and management purposes.
