Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Benthic foraminifera diversity of the abyssal Northwest Atlantic

Foraminiferal assemblage data was collected from thirty-two samples of seven cores of 0 cm down to 30 cm from the abyssal Northwest Atlantic. The investigated material was collected with a multicorer (MUC) at six stations with water depths ranging from ...

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

Habitat and spatial trends of U.K. wintering waterbird populations over 50 years

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom is an important wintering ground for millions of waterbirds. Most U.K. wintering waterbird populations increased between 1970 and the mid‐1990s, but declined thereafter. We examined U.K. population indices in 46 wintering waterbird species in two 25‐year periods, 1970–1994 and 1995–2019, to identify which waterbird groups ...

Insights from three decades of IUCN Red List assessments catalyzing shark, ray, and chimaera conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species is a critical measure of global aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity status. It is also the basis for the Red List Index, which tracks extinction risk over time.

Regional variability in the trophic requirements of shelf sea fisheries in the Northeast Atlantic, 1973-2000

, 2005
Hydrographic, plankton, benthos, fisheries landings, and fish diet data from shelf sea areas in the Northeast Atlantic have been combined into an analysis of the foodweb structure and secondary production requirements of regional fisheries. Fish landings

Conservation priorities for Neotropical water striders (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Gerridae) under climate change

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Hydrologic changes driven by climate change are affecting aquatic biota in the Neotropical Region, with significant impacts on water striders. Species distribution models predict an increase in conservation importance for the northern Andes and coastal areas of eastern South America, while central South America shows a decline. The observed changes are
