Traits underlie organismal responses to their environment and are essential to predict community responses to environmental conditions under global change. Species differ in life …
Natural mortality rates (M) in fish populations vary with body size and age, often by orders of magnitude over the life cycle. Traditionally, fisheries models and stock assessment methods …
It has long been hypothesized that aquatic biomass is evenly distributed among logarithmic body mass size classes. Although this community structure has been observed regionally …
Species are redistributing globally in response to climate warming, impacting ecosystem functions and services. In the Barents Sea, poleward expansion of boreal species and a …
We address the problem of optimal size‐selective exploitation in an age‐structured fish population model by systematically examining how density and size dependency in growth …
To ensure the long-term sustainable use of African Great Lakes (AGL), and to better understand the functioning of these ecosystems, authorities, managers and scientists need …
Resolving the combined effect of climate warming and exploitation in a food web context is key for predicting future biomass production, size‐structure and potential yields of marine …
Aim Higher temperatures increase the metabolic rate of ectothermic organisms up to a certain level and make them grow faster. This temperature‐sensitivity of growth is frequently …
Single species distribution models (SSDMs) are typically used to understand and predict the distribution and abundance of marine fish by fitting distribution models for each species …
