ABSTRACT The modern slavery‐climate change nexus is emerging as a trendy topic. It combines two powerful consensus narratives, modern slavery and climate change, and has been uncritically embraced by scholars, charities, campaigners and corporations. In this article, we argue that rather than representing an exciting advancement in society–environment ...

Skimmers: Their Development and Use in Coastal Louisiana [PDF]
The origin, development, and utilization of the skimmer net is reviewed along with other historical shrimp gears used in coastal Louisiana. The skimmer was developed to catch white shrimp, Penaeus setiferus, observed jumping over the cork line (headrope)

ABSTRACT Growing global demand for deep‐sea resources may lead to increased pressure on benthic ecosystems. Here we examined changes in meiofaunal communities following an in situ physical disturbance experiment. A significant change in meiofaunal community structure in surface (0‐1 cm) and subsurface (1‐5 cm) sediments was observed immediately ...

ABSTRACT With the possibility of deep‐sea mining of mineral resources occurring, it is necessary to understand potential impacts on benthic communities. Previous simulated mining experiments revealed direct benthic impacts; however, indirect impacts of sedimentation are not well understood.

ABSTRACT Expansion of extractive industries to deep‐sea environments will lead to increased stresses on seafloor ecosystems. We examined changes in environmental parameters following direct and indirect experimental benthic disturbance using a modified plough on the Chatham Rise (∼450 m water depth), Aotearoa/New Zealand. Measurements included sediment

Defining ecological roles of sharks on coral reefs
ABSTRACT Sharks have often been perceived to play a critical role in the dynamics of coral reef ecosystems globally. Yet, there is relatively little evidence to support this idea across all but a limited set of species and contexts. Research on the roles and importance of reef sharks has been complicated by logistical challenges in collecting data on ...

Recognising and Protecting the National Benefit of Sustainable Fisheries in the UK
ABSTRACT Sustainable commercial fishing makes valuable contributions to coastal regions and broader national benefits. This paper offers three arguments in relation to what is required for the societal benefits of sustainable fisheries to be fully realised and considers each in the context of the UK but with global relevance.

What acoustic telemetry can and cannot tell us about fish biology
Abstract Acoustic telemetry (AT) has become ubiquitous in aquatic monitoring and fish biology, conservation, and management. Since the early use of active ultrasonic tracking that required researchers to follow at a distance their species of interest, the field has diversified considerably, with exciting advances in both hydrophone and transmitter ...
