Ecological communities face a variety of environmental and anthropogenic stressors acting
simultaneously. Stressor impacts can combine additively or can interact, causing synergistic …

Partial migration, where only some individuals from a population migrate, has been widely
reported in a diverse range of animals. In this paper, what is known about the causes and …

Increased mortality from fishing is expected to favor faster life histories, realized through
earlier maturation, increased reproductive investment, and reduced postmaturation growth …

The interest in fishing‐induced life‐history evolution has been growing in the last decade, in
part because of the increasing number of studies suggesting evolutionary changes in life …

Globally, many fish species are overexploited, and many stocks have collapsed. This crisis,
along with increasing concerns over flow-on effects on ecosystems, has caused a …

Phenotypic plasticity may help species to persist in the face of rapid change, yet we lack a
management-friendly framework for incorporating plasticity into conservation practice. Here …

Age and size at maturation have declined dramatically in many commercial fish stocks over
the past few decades–changes that have been widely attributed to fishing pressure. We …

Human exploitation of wild‐living animals has been suggested to create a 'landscape of
fear'. A consequence could be that individuals surviving intensive harvesting, either as a …

Marine recreational fishing (MRF) is a popular activity that involves millions of people
worldwide. While the impacts of recreational fishing on freshwater ecosystems received …

Size‐selective harvesting is assumed to alter life histories of exploited fish populations,
thereby negatively affecting population productivity, recovery, and yield. However …
