The Modern Slavery‐Climate Change Nexus: Resurrecting Environmental Determinism, Reinforcing Saviourism and Absolving the West

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
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 ...

Experimental seabed disturbance effects on Chatham Rise deep‐sea meiofaunal communities, Southwest Pacific

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1388-1421, December 2025.
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 ...

Effects of experimental in situ seabed disturbance on deep‐sea macrofaunal communities of Chatham Rise, Southwest Pacific

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1422-1459, December 2025.
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.

Effects of an experimental in situ seabed disturbance on deep‐sea benthic ecosystem function and macro‐infaunal community structure on the Chatham Rise, Southwest Pacific

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1496-1529, December 2025.
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

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2707-2725, December 2025.
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

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 561-576, July 2025.
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

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 106, Issue 5, Page 1260-1284, May 2025.
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 ...
