A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Experimental trawling operations for bottom fish were first begun in 1920 and consisted of surveys of the continental shelf around Ceylon and the west and east coasts of India. These preliminary surveys showed that the continental shelf of Ceylon was either very poor in bottom fish or that the ground was so rough that trawling has proved to be ...

Decarbonizing Fisheries Through Ensuring Healthy Stock Status
ABSTRACT Industrial capture fisheries depend on fossil fuels, which tend to dominate both greenhouse gas emissions and operational costs of this form of seafood production. Improving energy efficiency is, in addition to shifting to alternative fuels, a crucial path towards decarbonizing fisheries.

ABSTRACT The Japanese sardine, Sardinops melanostictus, is a major fishery resource in the Sea of Japan (SOJ) and East China Sea (ECS); however, recent research on suitable habitats and migration patterns of this fish in these seas is lacking. We aimed to identify the oceanographic conditions (temperature, chlorophyll‐a concentration, and sea surface ...
