The catch of the day: The shortcomings of promoting sustainable seafood consumption in Peru

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study investigates the meaning and application of “catch of the day” in Peru by analyzing 233 news articles and genetically testing 43 fish samples from restaurants. Results show that media frequently use the term as a vague marketing phrase, while genetic testing reveals a 60% mislabeling rate. These findings suggest that “catch of the day” lacks

Mechanical Strength of the Interfibrillar Matrix in Horse Mackerel(Trachurus murphyi) Tissue.

open access: yesFood Science and Technology Research, 1999
A transparent testing cell was constructed to assess flow of fish tissue during a compression-back extrusion mechanical assay. The net action of the plunger over the fiber-interfibrillar collagen matrix appears to involve flow of intact fibers due to yield of the matrix as well as compression resisted by fibers. The force at yield point F (N) coincided

Fisheries Trade and Blue Nutrient Flows in Pacific Island Countries

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 466-477, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Pacific Island Countries (PICs) are located in highly productive fishing regions that supply nutrient‐rich fish to global markets. Marine fisheries are a critical source of protein and essential micronutrients for billions of people worldwide, supporting both local diets and global food security.

Governmentality and Risk: Managing ‘Ocean Space’

open access: yes, 2013
The term ‘fisheries management’ at first glance seems to be a reasonably unproblematic one. It implies that firstly, that there are resources called fish, and secondly, that these resources called fish can be harvested and managed. So far, so good. Next,

Connecting sea to market: Using network analysis to understand social–ecological dynamics in seafood value chains in Pisco, Southern Peru

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 10, Page 2465-2485, October 2025.
Abstract Small‐scale fisheries represent complex human‐nature interactions, targeting different species in different locations throughout the year. On land, fishers are at the core of diverse seafood value chains that serve local and distant markets.

The Interaction Between Stock Dynamics, Fishing and Climate Caused the Collapse of the Jack Mackerel Stock at Humboldt Current Ecosystem

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The collapse of marine fisheries had caused a cascade of ecological, social and economic consequences. Recognizing the complex nature of the fisheries collapses is essential for understanding the impact of human activities on natural systems.

Long‐Term Dynamics of the Northern Humboldt Current System Pelagic Fish Community: A Look Into Community Shifts

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT The northern Humboldt Current System (nHCS) has high environmental variability that impacts key demographic and community‐scale processes. Understanding the role and ecological implications of these interannual or long‐term events is crucial in describing the dynamics of the nHCS community. Using catch data from pelagic assessment surveys from
